I couldn't resist, I had to use that title. So in celebration of our two-month anniversary (what we've dubbed our two-monthiversary) Heather and I took a trip to Las Vegas for the weekend. Our monthiversary was actually on Thursday the 20th. On Friday I took a half day off from work and we left for Vegas. I won't expound on the obstacles that we faced as we left for Vegas. I'm sure Heather will go into those details on her blog. We'll just suffice it to say that there were obstacles, and leave it at that. We got to Vegas Friday evening. We stayed at a La Quinta about 8 miles from the strip. It's not the most fancy place in the world, but we liked it. It was nice and it wasn't too expensive. We were excited to find out that Vegas has a restaurant called Pick-Up Stix. It's an Asian food place that has really good stuff. We ate there on our honeymoon in San Diego. I highly recommend the House Chicken if you ever find one of their restaurants. We spent Friday night walking the strip. We watched the fountain show at the Bellagio, it was amazing. I got some nice pictures. Then we went to Caesar's Palace and found the mall inside. We spent most of our time in the mall looking for a place that sold flip-flops. Heather wore some shoes that started hurting her feet. Finding flip-flops in a mall is apparently more difficult than one would think. We finally found some for $18 at Abercrombie & Fitch. They didn't even have them on the floor, we had to ask and they got them out of the back. This is another story I'm sure Heather will go into detail about. We ate at The Cheesecake Factory for dinner. By that time we were both dead tired, I think it was almost 1AM. We started walking back to the Monte Carlo where we parked. Keep in mind that it takes about 10-15 minutes to get through the mall and the casino to get back out to the strip. We walked all the way out of Caesar's Palace and were in front of the fountains at the Bellagio when I realized I left my camera on the table at The Cheesecake Factory. I called them and they said they had it. We walked all the way back through the casino and the mall back to the restaurant (which is at the very end of the mall, by the way), got my camera and proceeded to walk back to the car. We finally got there and drove to the hotel. It was pretty late by then.
I'll add a couple photos to this post later. And stay tuned for the next installment.
