Day Two

A little late on this but yesterday was crazy and when we got back to the hotel we only had about 5 hours to sleep so we hit the sack. We did a ton yesterday. We rode the rollercoaster at the New York New York, took a taxi to a few casinos off the strip for something different, rode the High Roller, had an amazing champagne brunch, took the monorail to north end of the strip, and much more! Sitting on the plane now getting ready to head to Hawaii, it's 8:30 am Vegas time and we will get into Hawaii at 12:15 Hawaii time! I'll add photos later :-)

Day One

Well the first day of our honeymoon was long but a lot of fun. 19 hours later and we are finally headed to bed. Plane ride #1 of 6 is complete! We hung out on the strip most of the day and went down to Fremont Street tonight. The LoCash Cowboys were playing down there which was a lot of fun, they put on a great show! Only downfall to today is I'm pretty sure the three taxi cab drivers we rode with took about five years off of my life, people drive like crazy people in this city! Looking forward to another day here tomorrow with 75 degree weather :-)

The countdown is on! (3/12/14)

22 days to go!! Time to get serious about planning an itinerary for the trip and figuring out all the little details. Of course the planning for the 44 hours spent in Vegas will be easy: go go go, sleep as little as possible, see the fountains, hit up Fremont street, visit all the casinos, get EVERYTHING we possibly can fit in to the little amount of time we have! We are really hoping that the new High Roller Ferris Wheel will be open so we can take a ride on that! Our flight from Vegas to Honolulu is about 6 & 1/2 hours and we plan to catch up on our sleep then :) I really love following other people's trips so my plan is to try and keep this updated (when I can) while we are gone.
