Vegas was awesome! The hubs and I took advantage
of a long weekend and turned ‘date night’ into three days and nights of dates
together in Vegas! We took a few hour detour on our way and stopped to check
out the Hoover Dam, wow, it is huge and
pretty cool to walk over and marvel at how they built it.
Neither
of us had been to Vegas since we were kids so we did the normal site seeing and
touristy things. We checked out all of the hotels and the cool unique things
they had, saw some animals from the shows, went on roller coasters, and did
some serious people watching. We made our way down to Freemont Street one of the nights to
check things out and stopped to take some pictures at the pawn store from the
TV show Pawn Stars! We also found an awesome shooting range that lets people
shoot machine guns and things, so JD shot the SCAR (I’m not even sure what it
is, haha, but it looked cool).
My favorite parts of the trip were by far the
restaurants we ate at, yum yum yum! We ate some of the most delicious food
while we were there, including lunch at Buddy V’s (The Cake Boss’ new
restaurant), dinner at Maggiano’s and dessert at Serendipity. Our first night
we had dinner at BurGR which is Gordon Ramsey’s restaurant and they really were
the best burgers we’ve ever had. After dinner we had drinks at the Chandelier
Bar, it was gorgeous, the bar is literally inside of a giant Chandelier. And
our last morning we ate brunch inside of the Eiffel Tower
overlooking the whole strip.
On the drive home we started planning our next
trip, where we want to stay, restaurants we’d like to eat at and shows we want
to see. It’s was so nice to have a little get away just the two of us. Vegas is
now very Popular with the Poplins!!
