Las Vegas Trip #2

I am so behind on my blogs! Several weeks ago, Wayne and I went back to Las Vegas. My sister's husband, Chris, was there on business, so Carrie flew up to meet him. Wayne and I decided to be spontaneous and do the same thing! We had the best time, although Carrie and I really didn't see our husbands much...it was a big weekend for football, so they spent most of their time betting on and watching the games. But Carrie and I had fun shopping, eating out, gambling a little, and just being together.


Cute little Carrie


After walking around for a while, we worked up an appetite and stopped at Serendipity for lunch.

They are famous for their frozen hot chocolate that we just had to try...HEAVEN!

We walked all over the strip and to each hotel and Casino...that's why we didn't feel guilty about eating like pigs (which we did!). We got tons of exercise! Here we are at the Bellagio. Isn't it pretty?!
I have to say that Carrie had good luck on the slot machines! At each casino, we'd stop and take a break, and play the slots for a little while. Carrie put in a few dollars into a penny slot and won $10 right away! Then she put $5 into a quarter slot and won $25 more dollars. This happened over and over! One time we decided we really wanted an ice cream cone, and Carrie said, "I'll win us some ice cream money." And she did! She also paid for our cab ride back to the hotel!

We stayed at New York, New York which we loved! It was just like New York City.


Here's another night picture of the strip.


This is the one picture I have with Wayne :) I'm glad it's a good one! So I've already been to Las Vegas twice this year, and I'm still not tired of it! Who wants to go next?
