June Thirtieth

 

scan0005

We are back… From VEGAS!

We left Tuesday the 25th at 7:20am, stopping at Prim and Goodsprings so son2 could see the towns that his video game uses, arrived at our hotel, The Excalibur at 3:30pm, checked in, explored the hotel area, had dinner at the buffet and explored the surrounding strip until about 10pm…

Wednesday we spent the entire day on the strip… So much to see… We walked from Excalibur all the way to the Trump tower and back… dinner at the Luxor buffet… and then seeing the strip at night…

Thursday we checked out from the hotel and visited the other side of the strip seeing The Tropicana and Mandalay Bay, pictures with the Welcome to Las Vegas sign and then on the road again to visit the Hoover Dam… It was spectacular, like a mini grand canyon… and then homeward bound arriving at 10:20pm…

I took over 400 pictures and son2 took over a thousand with his new camera… So hopefully soon I will be ready to share some pictures…

We went grocery shopping since we had been gone all week and got Chinese food for hubby’s choice of birthday dinner…

Son2 went swimming with his friends and was back in time for dinner and cake…

Hubby made himself a chocolate pudding cake and we watched Jack the Giant Slayer…

Saturday we went to the Black Bear Diner since we ran out of time to go to Denny’s while in Vegas… Son1 came too to tell hubby Happy Birthday and hear about our trip… The portions were huge and so good… I had the Hawaiian Omelet with red potatoes… Son2 had corned beef hash with eggs, hubby and son3 had pancakes and son1 had a club sandwich with French fries…

Saturday afternoon hubby and I wandered around Wal-Mart…

Son2 went to hang out with friends and ended up spending the night with them…

We had leftover Chinese and watched Snow White and the Huntsman…

Today Hubby and I finally feel a bit more rested from all our vacationing…

Got some things done around the house today…

Hubby finished fixing the new hose post for the front yard… used his new drill from his birthday…

More leftover Chinese food and chocolate pudding cake and watching Under the Dome…

Back to Work tomorrow and hubby has Jury Duty…

Glad you had such a great time on vacation! I've never been there but have heard there is lots to see and do. Happy belated birthday to your hubby. It's Monday morning when I'm reading this so I know you are back to work. Hope you have a good week!
