Viva Las Vegas






This past week Brian and I enjoyed our Christmas gift from my parents, a trip to Las Vegas.  We haven't gone on a real vacation with just the two of us since our honeymoon and it was so nice to get away.  We stayed at the MGM Grand.  Their symbol is the lion and as you can see, everything in Vegas is larger than life.  On Sunday night, we had dinner and walked the Strip.  I have always wanted to see all the themed hotels, so exploring those was really fun.  All the risque ads and prevalent pornography was a downer, though.   On Monday Brian and I got dressed up and went down to the Wynn and Encore hotels, 2 of the newer and nicer ones.  We had dinner and just enjoyed the ambiance.  Tuesday night we saw a classic Vegas show, The Legends.  5 impersonaters performed, Jay Leno, Whitney Houston, Madonna, the Temptations, and Elvis.  It was really fun.
