Will be photographed then recapped on the blog. And posted on Instagram. We’re less three weekends away from our trip to Vegas, and I’m conveniently ignoring that I have to run a half-marathon while I’m there. But I’m looking forward to exploring Sin City.
Casinos. We’re staying somewhere on the Strip (the perks of your best friend’s parents going with you and booking the hotel), and our race begins and ends at casinos. Gambling is to Vegas as sand is to the desert (I’m getting deep with the metaphors).
Shows. Sadly, Celine Dion is taking a few months off from her show schedule because hubby Rene isn’t doing well. Get well soon, Rene. I need to see your wife perform. Like need. It’s no coincidence that Celine performed the theme songs for my two favorite movies (Titanic and Beauty and the Beast). Shania Twain is still touring, and I think that will be a great show.
The Fountain. Clearly, we’ll have to get some photos at the Bellagio fountain.
Buffets. We’re totally carb loading Saturday night at a casino buffet. Eat all of the food!
What else should we do in Vegas?
I’ve only been in the airport in Vegas, but I’ve always wanted to go. I’m not a gambler, but I’ve always been enticed by all the shopping! x
Having grown up there it has lost the wonder for me lol. I do not enjoy visiting there anymore.
Awesome! I took a trip a few years ago with all of my friends that I grew up it. One of my favorite things was the opportunity to go and tour all of the different casinos during the day as there is so much to see inside of all of those. We went to the Cirque Du Soleil LOVE show which was awesome!
Good luck with your race! Beatles’ LOVE is fantastic. I scored half price tickets on SmarterVegas.com. If you want to do some cheap gambling – The Westin, about a block off the Strip from Ballys has happy hour from 6-8 every day. 25 cent roulette, $3 craps and blackjack. My favorite places to eat: Grand Luxe (variety of food), Firefly (tapas), and Comme Ca (French). And like Anna below – I love checking out the different casinos. The Bellagio will have their garden decorated for fall.
I need to go to Vegas! I’ve never been before. I know my trip would involved drinking.
