VIVA LAS VEGAS!! (Say it like Elvis)


DAY THREE
Ok, so I'm slow! Tell me something I didn't know! I have been uber busy and posting more about my trip just couldn't make it onto my to-do list so here you go! The day started off by waking up toooooo early! We meet my parents at the Luxor Buffet for breakfast which was great! We hadn't had anything but McD's breakfast the whole time so it was nice to have something real. My Mom and Dad had to leave after eating to drive back home leaving Rachel and I in Vegas all by ourselves!! (WOOOAH!! Are they nuts or what!) They gave us some money, since our funds were slowly depleting, and we kissed them goodbye and headed off to do some street walking. I told you our funds were low! Just kidding! We did the normal walking on the street not that other kind! We stopped at the mall again and I bought a cool blue zebra print duffel for $9.00, and some very funny magnets. Here's mine....
Then we went to the Belagio shops. There I got to go into my all time favorite designers store... CHANEL! Oh how everything called my name! Then I saw it, the most amazing purse of my life! I wanted everything about it. The hand stitched leather, the beautiful silk lining, the gold chain embellishment, and then I saw the dreaded price tag. Only $2,125.00! Not bad right! WRONG!!! Even though every fiber of my body said charge it, I walked out empty handed with just the scent of high-priced, designer bags as a reminder. We went to the wax museum and had a fun time there looking at the freakishly real copies of celebrities. By this point we had walked so so far! Our feet ached, our backs were sore, our throats parched and I couldn't take it! We took the monorail back to the MGM Grand for a well spent $3.00, and had lunch at The Rain forest Cafe, which was scrupmtous! We went back to the hotel room for some much needed R&R. I took a nap while Rachel did who knows what! The weather was terrible so we decided that the hotel sounded really good. Rachel then decided that she wanted to go to the pool! I thought she was crazy, I mean it was freezing out there! After her begging me we left and when we got outside we had to end up staying in the hot tub so we didn't freeze! McD's was dinner, and then we went back to the room to pack seeing as how we were leaving the next morning. We went and bought some playing cards in the lobby and played a few games. We jumped on the hotel beds one more time and then good night!!

Card playing. Did you warn Rachel that you are the Gin queen? Or did she find that out by losing a hundred games?
