Halloween in Vegas is standing in line for hours only to pay a day's wages for entry into a club whose only draw is the costumed attendees...and the price of a good drink makes one consider selling a kidney in tijuana. Perhaps as I get older, reveling in the vegas club scene does not have the…

Neither one of us are gamblers. Mostly because we can't afford to lose any money. I spent a total of $5 gambling this entire weekend. What was really awsome about this weekend is that Sarah's mom and step-dad paid for most things. The room, the KA tickets, and gambling. Everytime Sarah and I sat in…

So, this is a bit past due to post these pictures but when I look at them I still can't believe it snowed here in Vegas, much less how much!  I was born and raised here and we have had some small flakes fall but nothing that stuck to the ground for more than a half hour.  It sounds fu…

As I have said in my other entry, The Fountains of Bellagio are the highlight of most visits!  I found a new way to enjoy the experience with these guys!  Rafiq likes a cigar occasionally, so we got us cigars and sit and watched the fountains!  The amount of time it takes to smoke a …

OK, I'm just adding a bunch of pictures here.  No, most of these aren't from Las Vegas, but I'm just putting them hear until I get some time to put them in the right spots!  Also, it will give people a chance to see my new pictures without having to did through the ones I posted previousl…

Friday, April 18, 2008   Today was our last day in Vegas and tonight we would be going home. But, we didn’t have to worry about that until late afternoon. Right now all we had to worry about was checking out and getting our car. We hadn’t seen our car since the afternoon of the 16th. Oh,…

All I can say is WOW!!!  This city has an energy of it's own.  We stayed at the Straosphere Hotel. I'll have a review on it.  You can park in their garage, which cost nothing. We checked in and made our way thru the live music, card tables, and slot machines to the elevators. Up to t…

The Travbuddy meetup 3/1/08 at the Lucky Bar at Redrock Casino was the place to be tonight. Travbuddies from the western half of the US came out to mingle and tear up the dance floor!

3:45am.  Didn't I just to to sleep and now I had to wake up?  If I wanted to get a ride to the airport that is the agonizing time I had to wake up.  Ben gets up every morning that early and I now understand why he is so tired by 8pm.  Luckily I had packed the night before, altho…

I felt like a little kid on their first trip to Disneyland. John had to lead me around by the hand as I stared at everything in awe. One minute I'm looking at a chocolate fountain, the next I'm face to face with a live white tiger, then all of a sudden I'm watching statues come to life in a room th…

The night I met Wayne Brady.......................... Ben, myself, Eli and Jess all went bowling Friday night at the South Point hotel and casino. We bowled 2 games, we wrapped things up around 12:30am and I was beat!! As we headed for the door, Ben stopped dead in his tracks!!  He said, "L…

What can I say, it was Vegas BABY! I met lots of great travel buddies, saw some sights, and took pics at the wax museum:)

For Christmas 2007 Margo had given me a spring trip to Las Vegas. This trip would coincide with our 21st wedding anniversary, so she thought that Vegas would be the place to go for 21.   We had the time jam packed and one of the things we saw was called “Bodies: The Exhibition”. I’ve w…
