VEGAS: the journey

072

This is day one of my weekend in Vegas. An amazing weekend in Vegas. Desiree and my first time, and the anticipation was getting to us. We wanted to do it all. Be tourists, be gamblers and party it up with the best. Not a lot was planned, but as Joey said, "At least that way you won't be dissapointed." Thanks for that.

I got all packed up. I mean i really got packed. Three days and two nights with:
4 pairs of jeans
1 pair of slacks
4 dress shirts
3 ties
3 T-shirts
1 sweater
1 jacket
2 fox tails
4 undershirts (3 black, 1 white)
1 pair of board shorts
2 pairs of dress shoes, and a pair of vans
1 pair of pj's
2 pairs of warm-ups
5 pairs of underwear
and all the black socks i can find.
-not to mention all the toiletries and electronic stuff.

First stop was Barstow station to check out the big McDonalds and the crazy stuff they have.

So yeah, Barstow has a lot to offer. If you want weird things mixed with Filipino food.

...and we made it!
The room wasn't ready when we got there so Desiree and I put on our walking shoes and headed down Las Vegas Blvd. Long walk, but so much to see. Barely got halfway.

Coffee Bean was a second room for us. I drank more green tea then alcohol over the weekend.

not to say the stores had a shortage though.

City Center- part mall, part art museum, all way out of budget. With a 3-story Louis Vuitton, the best i can do at this place is take pictures. But it was absolutely stunning to walk through.

That was the first day. As for the first night. No pictures from that. We'll leave those memories with those that were there. But I will tell you that we learned cotton candy smells wonderfully delicious. I'm falling for this town. I'm loving this vacation...and we haven't even seen the HOTEL!

more to come...
