After close to 72 hours in VEGAS (ok, actually 67 hours), I can HONESTLY say....we have been here for 3 more hours than necessary. Tried to get out of here early...but we are holed up at the airport bar.....so I blog....while I finish some red wine, recall the lack of sleep we've had and reminisce about the trip that was VEGAS MADNESS 2011 (the 1st annual trip)! It was definitely one for the record books with more 5 hours energy drank than a human should...and less sleep that I've ever had in 3 consecutive days...it was EPIC!!!
I have to say...if you weren't here...you missed out...and if you were here...then only you know the REAL TRUTH of the weekend...as this blog remains to be PG-13 and there are just some things that you can share!
Did I say EPIC....
Back on Wednesday (seems like a lifetime or 2 ago, and a pound of dignity ago)....Heather and I have our 1st cocktails of the weekend at the airport bar.
We rolled onto the strip about 12 am....and lucky for all involved there were no pictures from the night...which must mean that we didn't drink, didn't gamble and probably had an all around AWFUL time...I do know that the clock said 4:57 am when we rolled in, so I'm sure that we just helped little old ladies cross the street, took a quick jog and even enjoyed a movie (RIGHT?!?!)...well, if there are no pictures, then there is no proof....so if you weren't here, then you will never know......
Thursday morning we woke up early...after a 4 hour power nap and enjoyed the "JACUZ"...
(picking up the blog from home now)
Thursday...we continued our journey down the strip and ended up at the NY NY Roller coaster....best advice to give for this is to NOT drink a Long Island prior to boarding, but do make sure to pound 2 gin and tonics after....
We continued outside to listen to some Celtic music and drink up on Green Beer....looks A LOT better than it tasted (and that is not telling much)!
We continued on to Blondie's at Planet Hollywood to watch games for the afternoon...and then it was time to hit up the Dance Floor!!!!
Stripes and Stripes ready to DO THIS....BEST MUSIC EVER!
Ricky and Trish...doing it up right too!
And the boys are ready to hit LAVO at the Palazzo!
So cute....having a drink at the Lounge side...before hitting the dance floor!
And we are IN....well, to the skywalk, at least! Best part (ok, maybe not best part, but awesome that we drank for free for about 2 hours)....and DANCED!!!
Boy, am I thirsty!
Adam and I were cutting a rug on the dance floor and even had some "choreographed" steps
...if you are lucky, we might reenact some day!
Yep..."we fly like that"!
....and the night ended about 5 hours after that picture....
Friday morning was GAME day...
Amanda, Heather and I decked out in our "game day" gear
...and ready for X-Burlesque that night!
A few Washington Apples before tip off (and by few, I mean 5)!
Yep, of course, he had to wear the hat....and yes, Cougs and Huskies can get along.
Insert hand motion here...
Ready for Friday night out on the town...X-Burlesque with the boys
...then the bars and "club"....
Our very special ride to the "club"....
Yep...Heather and I love these boys!
Posing...to make sure we are the best lookin' ladies at the "club"
...and YES, we succeeded!
Final day was a little rough...but we did hit up Cafe Bellagio for a late Brunch....and the FLOWERS were amazing (these are for you Mom and Aunt Roxy)!
The trip ended with a 10 minutes for $10...or maybe 35 minutes! I will make sure that I get the FOOT massage every time I hit up Vegas!
I had someone ask me the Best part and Worst part about our trip...and my response was - I don't know you well enough to tell you either...and believe me, the best parts of our trip WERE not captured in this blog...I'd recommend you book your tickets now for Vegas Madness 2012 - Take Two! It's going to be EPIC times 2!
No way, Joses!!!!
