'BABYMOON' TO LAS VEGAS

DAY ONE:

We decided to take a trip to Las Vegas for our last horah ('aka' babymoon) before our precious little baby girl arrives. We stayed at the brand new ARIA hotel and were amazed at the beautiful view of the strip and contemporary feel of the room.

Here are a few pictures of the room and hotel:


After we checked into the room and got settled, we were pretty hungry so we ate dinner at the ARIA Buffet which was delicious! There's no better way to satisfy a pregnant woman than to take her to a buffet!!
After the buffet, we walked around the hotel, played a little bit of craps and then got ready for our evening show!
We saw the comedian, Carrot Top, that night at the Luxor and he was hysterical. He used a lot of props in his stand-up and told a lot of jokes about Vegas that tourists could definitely relate to!
DAY TWO:

We woke up to this gorgeous view of the Las Vegas strip. I definitely could have sat there for hours!


That day, we walked around the amazing casinos on the strip and then shopped a little bit at the Caesar's Forum Shops and Fashion Show Mall.
That evening, we took a taxi down to the Wynn hotel and explored some of the amazing sights at that end of the strip.

Before our show that evening, we had dinner at the Grand Luxe Cafe at the Venetian Hotel. This place was very similiar to the Cheesecake Factory

After dinner, we got tickets to see Blue Man Group at the Venetian hotel. We sat in the 4th row so we were required to wear ponchos during the show so we wouldn't get paint on our clothes. Luckily, we left the show free and clear of any paint stains. :-)

After the show, we were lucky enough to get a picture with one of the members of the Blue Man Group.

DAY THREE:

Me in front of the ARIA Hotel and lunch at CABO WABOLater that day, Dave and I ventured down to Freemont Street to see what old Vegas was like.
That evening, we ate dinner at our favorite buffet at Mandalay Bay, saw the Cirque du Soleil production of 'KA' at MGM Grand, and then gambled some more. Dave and I in front of 'KA' TheatreAs usual, we had an amazing time in Vegas and can't wait to go back again - this time with the little one!!
