On Friday, December 11th, Brad and I made the drive to Sin City to spend the weekend with our friends Jason and Michelle. It’s been about a year since we were last in Vegas and usually (at least for me) once a year is plenty. I can really only handle so much of the noisy clubs, all night dancing, smoky casinos and other activities that keep me up past my bedtime and in extremely high heels.
Yet, after this past trip, I might be willing to visit Las Vegas a little more often. Here are some highlights and new favorite Vegas activities:
Taking Friday off of work to make the drive to Nevada not only saved us money, but it gave us a full 3 day weekend AND plenty of time to put Lady Gaga’s new CD on repeat!
We found our favorite penny slots (Mermaid’s Gold and Gold Fish) at our hotel. Michelle was the big winner on this game. Not only did she get the bonus about every 3 turns, but she was also up almost $50 at one point!
The first night we ate dinner at Serendipity – just like the movie and restaurant in NYC!
On Saturday, Michelle and I did some damage at the Premium Outlet Mall, while the guys played poker and tried to win back the money us girls spent shopping!
Saturday evening we ate dinner at the Mexican restaurant in the Venetian (we eat here everytime we're in Vegas, yet no one remebers the name!) and then went to the Jeff Dunham show - hilarious!
Final highlight- “mini” breakfast on Sunday. Michelle got mini french toast and mine was mini waffles with 3 dipping sauces- toffee, berry and nutella. Seriously, amazing.
