Vegas Baby


Possibly the most uttered phrase in America- Vegas baby. Now I know why. Despite the fact that Vegas wasn't high on my 'must see' list, I completely and utterly succumbed to Vegas' wiley charms . There's something about the bright lights, gaudy billboards, beautiful people and obvious over-the-top extravagance that is very seductive. The best way to describe Vegas is that it's like Disneyland. With alcohol. Lots of alcohol.


Though I neither drank nor gambled I still felt like a rock-star in Vegas. Take our first night for example. It turns out Ryan's good buddy is the biggest club promoter in Vegas so we were granted free front of line privileges at Cat Club. Women also recieved free champagne all night. Chris had a private booth with free juice and Skyy Vodka. A fat bald man dressed in a suave black suit, he lapped up the attention from the Contiki girls and boasted about how he partied at the Playboy mansion.


The next day I shopped to my heart's content, took a perverse walk through the Bellagio's beautiful lobby (as seen in Ocean's 11) and then spent the ensuing afternoon in the hotel pool with a group of friends. The alcohol flowed, the sun was hot and the music was loud. That night we took in a variety show at Planet Hollywood then stretch-hummered it to the Little White Chapel where our group happily took part in the renewal of Shaun and Paige's wedding vows.



A hummer, a wedding, a club and a pool. That's Vegas Baby.
