VEGAS BABY, YEAH!!!!

The Stratosphere!! Holy crap that thing is high!






And here is the strip... I managed to convince Gord to stop for five seconds while I shot this one through the fence. A picture just doesn't capture it... it's truly surreal there!




Ted went on one of the crazy rides that dangles you off the top of the Stratosphere (Yikes!). This is the view of Vegas from my safe spot on the observatory deck. Sorry it's so dark! If you double click on the picture, you'll get a much better view of the strip.




We stayed at the Luxor (yes, we were there when the bomb went off!!). This is a shot of the sphinx and the pyramid in the background. They're both HUGE!!!! Oh, and did you know that the Luxor is the only casino you can see from space???




This is the Excalibur. We told Ash that it is Cinderella's castle!



Now I know that most of you know that my husband is AMAZING, but last Wednesday night (for my 28th birthday) he surprised me with a TRIP TO VEGAS!!!! OH MY GAWD!

We all know that what happens in Vegas, STAYS in Vegas, so I'm not going to show too much, but here's some cool shots of the sights! Thanks baby! I love you!!!
