gimmick_gameOkey, just got back at about 10 am this morning and I must say.....
HOLY FREAKING CRAP VEGAS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Wednesday=
Woke up at about 3 am to catch a very early flight. After a 2 hour stop in Atlanta and a long flight to Vegas we were there. And OMG, is it ever dry out there. Luckily I had a lot of lotion and nose spray, otherwise I would have been miserable. It was nice having no humidity for once, my hair behaved very well :D Got to the hotel in a limo (wooo!!!) and found out we couldn't check in until 3, and it was 12. So we checked out bags and went to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritville, which is attatched to the Flamingo. OMFG, bbq pork sandwich... *dies*.. After the best lunch EVER we checked in and relaxed a bit before heading downstairs for dinner at the buffet. The flamingo buffet was eh..but we went to the Excalibur (where the show for the girl's was) after and that was neat. Then the guys left to go see their show at the Aladdin and we went to see the Thunder From DownUnder....................
hubba hubba
anyway, got to go onstage with Matt, he was really nice and didn't do a lot of the raunchy stuff some of the other's had. He picked me because I was rocking out when he did Grease Lightning. I'm glad he didn't get really raunchy, because as much as I enjoyed the show and all, I am taken and very in love, and some of the stuff was just *shudder*
finally got to sleep 24 hours after getting up that morning due to time zone changes and slept like a baby.
Thursday= Went to the Venetian and got kicked out of the casino for loitering.....grumble. but the rest of the hotel was nice and the gondola rides were a lot of fun. Our gondoleer was a very good tenor, and was really nice. Bought a few things there and then went to Paris. Went ontop of the Eiffel Tower and nearly got blown off. Took lots of pics off of the top, and then went and did some shopping. I got an italian charm bracelet, and i got a bunch of vegas charms for it. Ate some crepes, and bought more stuff. :D
Okey...so since we went to a ton of hotels and casinos and I can't remember all the order of stuff, so here's a list-
Caeser's- Shoppes at the Forum, shows, and the Lassen gallery (omg want EVERYTHING in there)
Bellagio- Fountains, casino
Venetian- gondolas, casino, shoppes
Paris- Eiffel Tower, shoppes, and crepes...yummy
MGM- Buffet, Lion Habitiat, casino, Mama ilardo's Pizza
NYNY- pretzels, shops
Excalibur- Thunder, shops
Aladdin- buffer (best one) and shops
Luxor- Blue Man Group, buffet, shops
Rio- Penn and Teller
The Mirage- casino, Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden
Wynn- not much...too much hype for nothing...
Stratosphere- nearly geting blown off the top 3 or 4 times...:D
I think that's it.
Shows:
Penn and Teller- Awesome show, omg. They are great. Teller came down and picked a member of our party to participate in trick, it was really cool! Afterwards we got to meet them and take pictures. They signed stuff for us and they were really sweet, especially Teller. I got to hear him talk!!! OMG!!!!
Blue Man Group- I only have this to say----- Toilet Paper Rave and Captain Crunch!!!!! LOL!!!!
We did so much freaking stuff and I bought so much freaking stuff...I'm exhausted yet I still have a mad rush to finish Ed and possibly make asuka this week so I'm resting today, pulling out bias tape, and sewing like mad tomorrow and the rest of the week. FUN!!!
And now, what you all have been waiting for--- PICS!!!! (be warned, my camera sucks ass zoomed and at night...so some pics are pretty crappy quality)
<---Caeser's Palace
<---Mountains!!!!
<---BASM
<---PENGIES!!!
<---more PENGIES!!!
<---close up PENGIES!!
<---KOI!!!
<---Flamingos!!
<---Living Statue

That's all for now, Photobucket is being stupid and not uploading stuff propperly right now, so I gotta figure something out. I also went to the Hoover Dam and those pictures will be uploaded soon!
