Viva Las Vegas Baby!!!
For our honeymoon, we decided to take a trip to Vegas. We used money we got from our wedding to help with this special getaway and we had a blast!
We stayed at the Excalibur, and we got a screaming deal!! We paid $42/night!!! Seriously!?! Who can beat that for strip prices? And honestly, I love the south end of the strip, it seems to have the funnest Casinos. In my opinion.
When we first got to our hotel, we were greeted by some recruiters for a Time Share. They offered us a couple different deals if we went and sat through a Time Share spill. We agreed to do so, and we got 2 tickets to The Lion King, and 2 $25 Gaming Vouchers for the Mandalay Bay. If you are going to Vegas anytime soon and want to see a show that isn't raunchy, I highly recommend this!! It was fantastic!
Neither of us had ever been to a Hard Rock, so we decided to eat lunch here on Tuesday. They take your picture when you first get there, and if you choose to buy it they just add it to your check. Of course, we had to get it!
We visited M&M world mostly for my little Kaden. We bought him a cute pair of blue PJ's that he absolutely loves, so I feel like we scored big time!
Garrett took me to Circus Circus, and we watched a Juggler perform. Then he decided to play a little Fair Game, where you have to get the ball in the middle of like a teeter totter thing. You get 3 balls for $2. He lost the first round, and decided to play again, and on the 2nd ball he did it!! So we won a R/C Helicopter! (another one of Kaden's souvenirs)
My dad and my sister both told us we needed to go over to the Rio for their Carnival Buffet. It was worth the short drive. We got there at 3:00, so we paid lunch price, but they switched over to the dinner menu at 3:30 so Garrett was able to get all you can eat Crab legs for the small price of $17.99. I think he ate enough for both of us. As you can tell, he enjoyed himself!
The first night we were there, we walked over to NY NY and rode the Roller Coaster!! So. Much. Fun. It was awesome to be going inbetween buildings and stuff, and it seems like this coaster went FOREVER!! We got pics of this also.
Vegas was definetly a good vacation, even though we came home absolutely broke with $0 money left in our bank account. Garrett has been working doubles since we got back so we can get caught back up. We didn't gamble a lot, and we didn't win anything, but we were able to make a lot of memories as husband and wife.
