Honeymoon: Vegas Baby

December 26th, 2007 by Jennifer

This morning we wake up in our bed at the Paris Hotel. We find tickets home on Alaska, and opt for first class so we can travel our last leg comfortably with no stress!

We head out and have yummy crepes downstairs. Lemon curd, raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries. (AND, don’t forget the whipped cream!)

We play the slots and win $14! Then walk around outside. It’s warmer (but not much!) and luckily the sun is out. We go to Mirage Hotel and buy holiday gifts for Ty and Carson. Then we head over to the Venitian and yes, we go to the Mexican restaurant there. Ohh it’s so good. We order Guacamole (Yum) a pitcher of Patron margarita (which we can’t finish so fill up our water bottle and take with us) and tocos (marginal), and smoked chicken casadea (delish!). Full, we head back to catch a cab to the airport.

 

We send a text to Renee with the above photo:

Last minute Vegas tickets $250
Priceline Paris Hotel: $100
Amazing Margaritas and Guacamole: Priceless

On our way to the airport, we found out we got ripped off the first day. Taxi should have been about $12-14. Note to self for the future 🙂 The cabbie was nice (yet slightly crazy) and told us next time, call taxi authority while in the car and watch the cabbie sweat it out!

When we get to the airport, they give us grief about our liquor purchase. We try to tell them the box is well traveled… but they say we can only have 5 bottles each box, each person. So we pull them apart, and re-tape. Hope they make it!

We arrive home safely about 10 pm. The Seattle airport was crazy busy, and Renee got dizzy driving around while we waited it out for our bags. And yes, our liquor made it!
