Halloween 2009 at hArdRock Cafe"

I have been to Las Vegas so many times that I have lost count.  I didn't know this place existed 'til Mel suggested we hike it when I'm in town for the Thanksgiving weekend. I couldn't get a hold of a car to borrow nor did anyone (namely my brother) want to wake up early to drive me to M…

 "5pm at the Harley Davidson Cafe for dinner? No problem!" So I arrive around 7pm...just a tad late right? It had been a long day and I ended up back at my hotel later than I had anticipated, so of course I get to dinner very late. I must admit I figured we would have a few drinks and tal…

Our first day in Vegas was a blast.  It was my fiance's sister's birthday, so after settling in and taking a nap in the afternoon, we went out to the Hofbrauhaus.  Hofbrauhaus Vegas looks like a smaller version of the one in Munich from the outside, although the inside seemed to be a lot …

After a fairly crazy night in Vegas, I opened my eyes at 12:00pm to the loud loud loud music of the bar below. My friend and I decided to venture down to the cafe and stock up on water and hopefully get something in our stomachs to settle us. We returned to the room where we chugged water for about…

We stayed at the Monte Carlo...great hotel!  went out of their way to be accomodating to us.  Gave us strip view, connecting rooms.  The first night we were there...Leslie, the birthday girl, wanted to go to Le Cirque in the Bellagio for dinner.  AMAZING!  Expen…

Travel for most people is fun and exciting. But when you are a plain happy face, travel usually isn't as much fun. Lets see what fun I can have on my travels.

On the morning of our last full day in Las Vegasm my family and I woke up extra early to take a ride down to Freemont Street in downtown Las Vegas also known to some as Old Vegas.  Although not all the lights were still lite.  There stood a charming old street of historic casinos.  W…

Went on a weekend trip to Las Vegas. It was my first time there. My cousin graduated from UNLV... which was my little excuse to go. ;)

If you are into race cars, what could be better than driving a race car yourself?You can do so at - who would have thought - Las Vegas Motor Speedway.Former NASCAR champion Richard Petty is running a race car driving school.As race cars they use genuine NASCAR machines. Maybe not the last models, b…

Played blackjack...made some money ($22), chilled out at the Venetian, sunbathed, partied - didnt sleep. One of the best trips ever!

On the last day, my friend Kathryn and I got up early, and met up w/ our friend Ben and we went and did some sight-seeing.  We went up to the top of the Eiffel Tower and it had such an amazing view- great for picture taking!!  We walked around the strip more and got back to the room about…

Wow...what a big shiny beacon of SIN! Coming down in the plane all you had to do was peek out the window and see the luxor glowing brightly in the night outshining the strip itself. All the glimmering and gawdy made my head spin. When we finally got situated in the hotel (excalibur) we wore our lit…

In 2001 i was working as a glamour model and was in Vegas for the first - and only time, staying at the stratosphere hotel.This is the hotel Which has the tallest observation tower in the USA. Although i cant realy remember much of this part of the trip ( much to the disapointment of some readers o…

Back in 1997, I had purchased a nice little point-and-shoot, 35mm FujiFilm Discovery 270 it from Ritz.  It took adequate pictures, was easy to use, had a nice zoom, and my favorite feature was the remote control.  In college, I participated in some projects and competitions that I wanted …
