Our Vegas Vacation

I thought I'll share some pictures from our trip to Vegas. Had a great time with Eric. Just wish his vacation lasted a lifetime.... Miss you Hubbz!!! Come back sooooooon...

Spent 5 days in Vegas and all the five days were action packed, exciting and great!
Stayed at the Bellagio (which I would pick again to stay at in a heartbeat. What a wonderful hotel!).
Gambled at a bunch of places - Bellagio, Ceasar's, Harrah's, Bally's, O'Shea's, Flamingo and MGM.
Visited the following - MGM Lion Habitat, Flamingo Gardens, Freemont Street Experience (a 1/4mile TV screen, and a bunch of celebs. Very cool place!), Treasure Island, The largest gold nugget in the world, Stratosphere (Eric jumped off a 860ft tower, check out the video below!), The Gun Store(One of the only places in the states that lets you shoot real machine guns!).
Watched the shows - KA by Cirque (a must watch in a lifetime!), Wild Magic by Dirk Arthur, The Call of the Sirens (cheesy show at TI).
Ate at a bunch of fine dining places - Mesa Grill (Bobby Flay's restaurant WOW!), Emeril Lagasse's, Bellagio fine dining, Rio World Carnival Buffet etc.


Here's the view from our room at the Bellagio





Here are the Vegas show gals doing a number on Eric. The very next second she tried to kiss Eric and I pulled him awwwway.






Us at the Flamingo Gardens.






I shot a freakkkking MACHINE GUN!!! What an experience. And I was almost perfect. Got all my shots on Osama!!! The instructor was mighty impressed!






Bobby Flay's restaurant at Ceasars. Wow! Wow! Great food. Very unique and different. Bobby, I'm a fan!!






Eric's dad and step mom were able to visit with us and spend some time the day we were leaving. Was great to meet them!!!!


VIVA LAS VEGAS!!!

Eric jumps off the Stratosphere in Vegas


If you take a close look, you'll see Eric trying to run through the air at 0.05 secs.
This was a great day. Lots of fun and great excitement to see him jump. Next time, I will find the courage to do it too :)
