Hello!
As I told you guys, this past weekend was my first trip to Vegas!
I was a little hesitant about this trip because, well, for starters, I don’t gamble. Like, it’s not my thing. If someone were to ask me were all of my money goes, I like to say,” I’m either wearing it, or I ate.” So basically, gambling doesn’t fall into either of those categories. So I was worried I would have to be in a casino the whole time…
I was also hesitant because I was worried I wouldn’t be able to sleep – hah. See, I am definitely more of a go-to bed at a decent time, then wake up early to workout kind of girl. Anddd I knew that wasn’t going to happen! None-the-less, I went in with an open mind, let my guard down & had an absolutely fantastic time!!
One of the things learned about Vegas, is that there is a little something for everyone there! Even people like me, who hate to gamble & rely on my eight hours of sleep.
I for one, loved going to all the different hotels & exploring them! They are all just so breathtakingly beautiful. Actually, I just enjoyed exploring the whole time I was there!
Below are just a few tidbits of the trip!

We got in really late Thursday night, so our first meal was the next morning. We chose Giada’s at the Cromwell & it did not disappoint! Plus, I am a huge fan of hers! Pictured above is smoked salmon, topped with capers, caramelized onions & tomatoes on avocado toast!

To put it gently, Saturday morning I was hurting a little bit. As we set out, we walked past Squeeze, a juice bar on the side of The LINQ. Since I did’t have my detox drink with me, and I knew that I needed to give my body some TLC, I decided on their juice, called The Cleanse. It had cucumber, lime, spinach, ginger, chia seed, carrots, & green apple – aka everything my aching body needed!

The day before Colton’s birthday, we became friends with the people who worked at our pool. They gave us an awesome deal to get bottle service at a club to see Fetty Wap that night. It was such a fun way to start his birthday festivities, plus, after paying a ridiculous cover charge the night before, this was too good of a deal to pass up!

If you’re looking for an awesome brunch, with the most amazing view, then Lago is definitely your place! I am still in awe over it. We went here on Colton’s birthday & it had the best view of the Fountains of Bellagio. Truly spectacular!

Even though this was my first show, I feel pretty confident to say that Absinthe is one of the best shows you can see! From acts that will make your jaw drop, comedy, extreme vulgarity, this shows has a little bit for everyone.
It didn’t hurt that we had awesome seats! We sat in the large comfy chairs right in the middle with champagne in hand.

At the end of our last night, we went on the High Roller to overlook all of Vegas, it was a great way to end the trip & say goodbye to the city!
Things not featured that we did, was getting a cabana by the pool for Saturday with the whole group, the most amazing Japanese dinner at Robu Nokku with Colton’s parents, lots of club hoping, exploring Fremont Street & even a little big of gambling on my part! It was all around an amazing trip! You can check out my Facebook for the rest of the pictures!
Have a great weekend!
