WOW...how was Vegas you ask?? It was FANTASTIC. I was very excited for a long time to get the whole Vegas experience and being pregnant and all i was concerned I might not get the full meal deal. I was wrong.
There were so many great highlights of our trip. Starts off with the easiest quick flight on friday night, followed by a limo ride to our UNBELIEVABLE HOTEL. The Encore. I have never seen anything like it. The Decor, the view we had from our 60th floor wrap around suite, the service was amazing. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to turn the lights off at night, or to put privacy on the door. Everything was high tech. We ordered room service every morning, dined in room with the most delicious coffee and eggs on toast, and started our day with laying by the pool, followed by shopping, gambling, walking eating laughing, giggling and just enjoying my mom and sisters company.
Highlight #1
My mom stuck 1$ in a quaters machine the first night we got there and she won $1400.00. It was hilarious, i was sitting a couple machine's down and she yelled out "Deena..something is happening here, i just won something" I laughed sooo hard, she was so nieve, but she shared the wealth and it kept us going all weekend.
Highlight #2
The Cher Concert. WOW, that 64 yr old cougar still has it. We sang out loud, clapped, we were so close we could see the sweat on her forhead and her tattoos on each bum cheek. She was unbelievable! My dad spoiled us that night, with dinner and the show it was fantastic!
Highlight #3
Gambling......I'm not much of a gambler but I definilty love the unkown of it. The last night we were there, it was just Jana and I and we bought 50$ worth of chips for roulette. Tino taught me how to play it, the whole weekend my lucky # 19 didn't work for me so when i was almost out of chips, I said to my sister, this is the last bet I will do in Vegas, i put 2 chips on 19 and 10 chips on red...and VIOLA, it landed on 19 so i walked away with $300 american...we laughed all the way upstairs.
Highlight #4
Spending quality time with my mom. We miss our mom, she lives much to far away and it was so fun to have the 4 days with her. My dad was there a bit too and he's always a comedian and looks after his ladies!
All in all in was a wonderfull Holiday. I will definilty be back, you get the hot weather, lounging by the pool, shopping, entertainment and nightlife all in one shot!
Pictures to follow.
