What Happens In Vegas...

You know the saying... "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas?"..
Well... I am breaking that right now ;]
This past week was my fall break from school. I decided to take a trip to Vegas with my mom and dad. 
We arrived in Vegas on Thursday at noon. We were staying at the Venetian...
We spent the first part of the day at the Outlets (who doesn't love the Outlets right? This is where I got my WICKED SWEET shoes... see picture below )

While we were at the Outlets I had MAJOR shoppers block (Get it? like writers block haha)
Normally I shop til I drop. But not that day... Everything I looked at was chaotic. 
There were a ton of really cute clothes but I just was not liking any of them.

That evening when we got our car from valet the windows were down and it smelt like cigarettes! 
It was awful!!
After the receiving our smelly car we drove to the MGM Grand Hotel where we attended the show KA by Cirque Du Soleil.
It was interesting... The effects were incredible, but the story was quite hard to follow...
They did not say anything except for at the beginning of the show (which was only two sentences worth). 
Some parts drew on... Some parts were really incredible.
I have mixed feelings about this show.. If someone were to ask me my opinion on if they should see it or not, I'd probably say no... I fee like there are better shows to see in Vegas, but I am glad I saw it.

The next day we decided to walk the strip to Miracle Mile (Miracle mile is a mall that has tons of shops and is a mile long. Guess who did not have shoppers block that day?! ME! :]])...

If you have ever been on the strip you know there are people trying to pass out cards of pornography.
As we were walking there were two couples in front of us...
One couple was pick up all those hand outs. The mans wife was handing them to him and saying, "We are looking for the one that ends in 'I', like Suki or Candi"
I could not believe what I was hearing! haha

That evening we went out to dinner with some relatives in Henderson. 
Then we decided to hit the hay (because we were getting up at 5 to drive home).
We had only been asleep for about an hour or two before our lovely neighbors woke us up.
They were being EXTREMELY loud.
They were drunk as can be, talking at the top of their lungs.
After a minute or two they ended up getting in a fight or some type of argument.
Las Vegas is one of the most filthy places on this earth, but is fun to go to some times. 
To say the least we did not get much sleep for the drive home the next morning.

I love seeing the different types of people and the random places you see them at.
THE FEW PEOPLE OF LAS VEGAS:
My Cheesy Smile, I know! She was playing in the Venetian Lobby!

There were SO many people dressed up. These are two of the many Elvis Impersonators!

She reminded me of a female Michael Jackson, with the hat and big shades!

These "metal" statues. I would have taken a better picture but he FREAKED out!

Random guy stretching! He was taking up half the side walk with some of his stretches!

I wish I would have taken more pictures, but its hard to be sneaky about it! 
I am not a pro creeper... so I struggled at getting pictures of people!


One last story: After we had checked out we were waiting for our car to come back from valet. 
Two chicks walk out of the hotel lobby. They look HAMMERED!
One Gal's dress was like a t-shirt (that's how short it was).
As they were walking by they were talking about how much money they had made!
uh... (I assumed that they were hookers, but I did not need to hear that!)AWKWARD!

Even though Vegas is a dirty place, there are some really great things to see and experience.
Ex. M&M Factory
Coca Cola Factory
Miracle Mile
The city lights!
They EXTRAVAGANT Hotels etc.
