Las Vegas the Second Time Around

I got excited when my aunt and uncle invited me to go on a land trip with them to Las Vegas. They are meeting up with my uncle's brother and his wife who are from California. It is quite a long trip so we had to stop for sometime in a gasoline station for my uncle to get some power nap. FYI, he would not allow me or my aunt to drive the car (even if we both have a drivers license).

What is more exciting is that I will be meeting with some of my batch mates from college who are now based in Vegas. We stayed there for a week. There was no problem with the place to stay as my aunt and uncle own time share accounts. We went inside several hotels and casinos. My favorite place was Circus Circus where we played several games and won several HUGE! stuffed animals, courtesy of kuya Enchong - the expert.

We also went to see a live show by our favorite magician Mr. David Copperfield. It was a shame my phone was running low on battery as he held a contest via twitter. Mr. Copperfield got several volunteers from the audience and it was fun, especially the finale, where he called several people from the audience and made them to up the stage. He covered them and they disappeared and appeared on a specific area near the audience. We were so intrigue that we waited outside to interview the people who were taken as volunteers and asked them where they were taken. All we could understand was that everything happened to quickly and all of them were asked to run as quick as they could.

I went out with my batch mates twice. The first one, we had a buffet dinner at the Aria hotel. Food was fantastic! Then the other time, we went to Ate Delsa's place. Such a lovely place and she has very adorable dogs.

Vegas was fun! You do not have to gamble to enjoy the place. There are a lot of free shows that you can watch, if you know what time and where they are happening. We saw a lot of them inside those big hotels and outside too. Read full post...
