On Vacations

Posted by girlie on August 22, 2008

Our trip to Las Vegas is really memorable, even my kids have the fondest memories of Las Vegas. We stayed in a posh hotel, that’s what my son considered it, and yeah I agree with him. The 4 hour drive from California to Las Vegas went smooth. Nobody in the coaster slept because of a lot of funny stories to listen too. The ride was very relaxing although not much can be seen, just never ending road it seems. On our way there, we stopped by an outlet to shop and eat, now I can’t remember the name of the place. Anyways, it was funny because more than anything else, we (me and my daughter) were interested in the shopping than eating. We would pretend not to be hungry well in fact the long drive made us. We would rush from one shop to the other like there was no tomorrow. And guess what? We ended up buying only a single item since we didn’t have enough money to spend. It was already the last stretch of our US vacation. Plus we wanted to see more of Las Vegas. Nope we didn’t gamble, gambling is not just for me and my family. We walked past the strip admiring all the beautiful hotels, the hubs enjoyed taking pictures. Oh we were able to watch a show too, The O Show, golly it was awesome. We didn’t see much of Vegas though because of time constraints. But I promised myself to go back and this time I’m going to take one of the Las Vegas tours. I missed a lot I know, because when one of my friends asked me if I was able to see this and that, all I could answer was, no I have not been there. It’s also nice to consult or read through online travel guides for a more pleasant trip. At least you have an idea to all the must see places in the State you are going to visit. It saves time you know. Oh don’t forget to go and see Madame Tussauds wax museum, it’s really worth it. I’ve seen it and had a great time posing with “Brad Pitt” “Madonna” and “Marilyn Monroe”.

Before I forget, since we have plans of visiting Las Vegas once again, I think I will need to sign up with Trusted Tours & Attractions’ latest promo. Who knows I will be able to win the $150 Magellan’s Gift Certificate by signing up for their newsletter. Not only that, all information from the newsletter would be important to my travel plans.
