Waking Up In Vegas

18 Apr

Hello, I woke up in Vegas this morning and feel like I had a good time last night. Let’s see what I can share…

The first thing Ben and I did after we settled in our room is get one of those embarrassing huge cups of high-fructose corn syrup and alcohol.

IMG_9325 (600x800)

Even though I’ve been to Vegas 20+ times I have never gotten one of these before because I think they’re tacky. Well, this time we decided to do all the super cliché over the top Vegas stuff. When in Vegas do as the Vegans do? Wait. Nevermind.

IMG_9326 (600x800)

Then, we set out to find dinner. We bought tickets for a 10:30pm show so we had time to peek into a couple of casinos which may be just as engaging as baji999 affiliate login.

We wanted to gamble at our own pace with no pressure, so we decided to just play 벳엔드 주소 at our hotel room. We’ve also discovered some reliable online casinos, such as euteller casino that offer fantastic bonuses! Learn about the top10nettikasinot here. I also found out about Fun88, which offers sports betting that I really enjoy playing.

We ate dinner at Chin Chin in the New York New York Casino

At this point we both we’re feeling good Winking smile

We shared an appetizer plate that Ben dominated because I wasn’t that hungry.

My go-to Chinese dish is Spicy Eggplant, add tofu.

with brown rice.

I also stole a few bites of Ben’s curry noodles. We took a lot of this back to the room and devoured it after dancing the night away.

IMG_9343 (800x600)

Then, I headed back to the room to put on way too much make-up in an attempt to distract everyone from my massive pimples. My secret’s out.

IMG_9351 (600x800)

Who am I kidding? I always wear too much make-up in Vegas.

IMG_9356 (600x800)

After the show we came back to the room to play a few online poker games at bonusetu.com while having a few shots before heading out to dance. We ended up at Rok in New York New York. It was kinda dead, but I don’t normally party in Vegas on Sunday nights, so I don’t know if that’s standard.image

The good thing about coming to Vegas with your SO is it’s okay if the club is dead, you already know who you’re going home with Smile

IMG_9357 (600x800)

IMG_9358 (600x800)

After that I don’t know.

IMG_9366 (600x800)

Wait, I do know we ate a donut around 3am and Ben scored this awesome Krispy Kreme hat. Lucky.

      If you like cupcakes Retro Bakery makes the BEST cupcakes, and Kari the owner is so friendly and fun! Apple Cider and Hop Scotch are my favorite flavors, but you really can’t go wrong.
      Also I hear good things about the Neon Museum, I am planning to go there when I am in Vegas in July.

      No super fun Vegas stories to share. Although I did get one of those drinks when I went last year with my best friend. We both got so sick to our stomachs. Way to sickeningly sweet. Next time, I’m getting a real drink!

      Vegas is such a blast! This was a few years ago. One morning after a long night of drinking at Pure in Ceasar’s, I found $100 worth of poker chips in my purse. Neither my sister or I knew how I got them….I must have gambled. Or stolen them? I also went for my sister’s bachelorette party about 18 months ago. We stayed at the Venetian and had a fabulous time at the pool party there. Day drinking in Vegas – can’t beat that!

      Haha, I love that you finally gave in and bought a giant drink tube! We got them when we were in Vegas last August and I also felt pretty tacky carrying it around :-P. We were in Vegas for my birthday so my day started off with room service strawberries and mimosas and continued with a buffet and visiting as many casinos as possible. Good times.

      God I miss Vegas. Had a blast coming back to the hotel room (at 4 am) to change into flip flops (because our feet were bleeding with blisters) and then walking/exploring the strip until 6 am. Makeup and dress look HOT!

      I went to Vegas 2x in 2010. Once for a bachelorette and once with my boyfriend. Both trips were memorable in their own way 🙂

      I totally agree when you go out with your SO it doesn’t matter if the club is packed or not. It does matter if you are going out with a group of girls though!

      You look great in your pictures!

      All of my “After that I don’t know” Vegas stories start with one of those giant frozen drinks. I only drink them in Vegas. They are evil, and delicious.

      Last time I was in Vegas (a year ago) I had an “After that I don’t know” night the day before I left and the first thing I remember about my trip home is being in line at McDonald’s in the Denver airport, my connecting flight. So…I don’t think I’m going to drink any more “After that I don’t know” drinks.

      I’ve been to Vegas once, to get married. At 21 I wasn’t old enough to get into the shows ??? It wasn’t a great time because of the stress we were feeling, but it was the best vacation ever because I married the love of my life.
