So, now over a week since we got back, I finally managed to post the pictures from the trip to Las Vegas. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

We had a great time down there and managed not to go completely broke in the process. I’ve got to give a big thumbs up for hugely affordable vacations thanks to getting the plane tickets for my birthday (thanks Mom and Dad!) and being able to stay in a timeshare for free (thanks Uncle Lewis!).

The place is like a Disneyworld for adults except you spend a ton of money…so literally a Disneyworld for adults I guess? If you can’t have fun in Vegas then you’re just kidding yourself and you need to lighten up. Believe it or not, but there ARE other things to do there besides drink and gamble - but what’s more enticing than shoving $40 into a shiny greedy machine or tossing $200 down at a blackjack table without much chance of getting it back? The geography of the surrounding area is amazing (and kind of shocking - the view of the Grand Canyon you get on your way there is worth the ticket price).

We highly recommend this as a vacation spot for adults without any kind of children, though. There would be nothing worse than getting on a nice run at the Wheel of Fortune but having to go meet your kid after a movie at the hotel. Think about it!
