New Journal Entry

Well, we are here in fabulous Las Vegas and wow are we having fun!!!

We were planning on leaving work at one yesterday but because the crew was going to be short that afternoon so our boss declared everyone leave for lunch at 12 and come back at one....since we were leaving at one that meant we get to leave an hour early.

My husband Rob picked us up and dropped us off at the airport where our friend Jenn and her daughter Maddie met us for lunch. Image

 We enjoyed a nice meal and then it was off to go through security where they ran my purse about a thousand times before finding out that my little mono-pod for my camera was Not a shotgun. 

The flight was okay until the descent of course...I knew that it would be bumpy because of the heat but even the two glasses of wine I drank couldn't

stave off a minor panic attack.  Paula was a doll and kept making me laugh so I couldn't get too worried.

Finally we were on the ground and after a quick stop at baggage claim to get Paula's bag we were off and onto the shuttle in no time.  In the back of the shuttle with virtually no air conditioning, Paula and I melted a little until we got to the Venetian and checked in.

ImageThe room was absolutely fabulous!  For the price we managed to get it for it was a steal!  We were both impressed with the sunken living room and especially the bathroom.Image

 

 

 

 

After unpacking, we took two mini vodkas out of the mini bar and had a cocktail while we relaxed a little from the flight.  We were giddy with out freedom to put it mildly.  :-)

Because our flight was late and the shuttle took forever we didn't have the time we wanted to go gamble a little so we just got tarted up and headed out to the Excalibur for the Thunder From Down Under show.

Once at the casino we got a quick drink and got our tickets from will call before settling in at a bar so we could smoke. 

Finally they opened the doors and we took our seats at the first table and waited.  There were tons of bachelorettes there so that was fun to see them all dressed up.

I was a little worried because the theater was so small looking.  On the advertisements they made it look like a huge auditorium and it was really just the size of a small club with an average to small stage.

Having said that, I ate my words when they guys took the stage!  Wow!  Not only are these boys HOTT, but they are fabulous dancers and everything was so polished and co-ordinated.  The energy was through the roof.  Image

And I needed have worried about the small stage because they kept leaping off of it and dancing on our tables...running through the crowds...grinding on the ladies.

I can't express how much fun this was.  I highly recommend it to any gal that wants to have a good time and be thisclose to some prime eye candy!!  The ONLY bummer about this show is that you can't take pictures.  No pictures but you are fully encouraged to touch the men...ANYWHERE you want to.  Heh.

At the end they invite everyone to come on stage and have your pictures taken with the boys and while we wanted to do that, we realized we'd probably be in line for another two hours if we did so we opted out.

Instead we found a liquor store and stocked up on booze, soda and snacksImage before cabbing it back to our hotel where we changed into our PJ's and had some cocktails.

 

 

It had been such a long day so we decided we would just stay in and fiddle on the computer, having drinks and relaxing.  And that is just what we did.
