Wednesday, mom and I flew out to Las Vegas!! We got a pretty good deal staying at Bally's. We had a good 4 days together overall, but with so much bickering I realize why it's not possible for me to stay at home any longer.
Wednesday, we took our first walk down Las Vegas Boulevard, stopped by the famous Gold and Silver Pawn Shop on the History Channel. Then we went and got delicious Ethiopian for dinner.
On Thursday, we went to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. It was simply breath taking! I took a lot of amazing pictures on the sides of edges. Mom almost had several heart attacks and kept begging me to come down from ledges. At night we went to Paris Hotel, and went to the top of the Eiffel Tower.
Friday we walked around a few hotels, and then had dinner at P. F. Chang's. After dinner, we went to see Cirque du Soleil's KA. The show was phenomenal! Really beautiful and well done.
Saturday walked around a ton of casinos we hadn't covered yet. Mom gambled a ton and after a week of losing, she made a +$400 after 2 hours at the tables. I gambled $2, lost them both. Oh well, gambling's not my game and I've never been much interested in it.
Saturday night we flew back and arrived today morning in Philly.
Hotel/Casinos I checked out: Bally's, Paris, Planet Hollywood, MGM Grand, Bellagio, Caesar's Palace, Rio, Wynn, Treasure Island, The Mirage, Flamingo, New York New York (rode the roller coaster!!), Luxor, and Mandalay Bay.
Overall a success!!
Finals coming up this week... Gotta finish a bunch of essays too.
