I know I’m a little behind in blog posts here, but better late than never, right? Last month for Fourth of July, my older brother treated me to a trip to Las Vegas with him and his friends! We had so much fun; lounging around the pool, walking up and down the strip, eating delicious foods, and seeing a few shows! I thought I’d share some photos that I took on my iphone throughout the long weekend trip.
And here are some of the things we did while in Vegas, that I can definitely recommend:
Stroll up and down the strip and peer into the hotel lobbies (especially, Wynn, Venetian, The Cosmopolitan, Bellagio)
Watch the Bellagio fountains light up at night
Buy tickets to see Cirque du Soleil “O” or a magic show by Penn and Teller
Have a meal at the food hall, Wicked Spoon in The Cosmo
Get pastries at Jean Philippe Patisserie
Walk through the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens
Check out the nightlife at XS in Wynn or Marquee in Cosmo
Shop along the Grand Canal in the Venetian or The Shops at Crystals Aria
Go for a dip in the wave pool at Mandalay Bay
Share a large platter of seafood with friends at AquaKnox in the Venetian
Have a drink or two at the Parasol Bar and watch the surprise show at the waterfall
Spoil your taste buds at Joel Robuchon’s restaurant L’Atelier
Thanks for a great trip Chris!
