Cheers! I don’t make it out to Las Vegas very often. But whenever I do, I’m sure to have a good time. This trip was actually really last minute. I was on a family ski vacation in Utah when I realized that the car ride home would pass right through Las Vegas. As a joke, I said to my brother that I was planning to abandon ship in Sin City. But the more I thought about it, the less of a joke it became. I realized I could hop out in Vegas and then easily catch a plane flight back to LA. Shortly after coming to this realization, I booked my flight and my weekend plans were set in motion!
Well, not all my plans were set. I showed up in Vegas with no hotel. This is typical of the way I plan vacations. Everything is last minute. Thankfully the Las Vegas Strip has no shortage of hotels ready for booking so I scored a room at The Wynn casino without too much difficulty.
When I arrived in Vegas, I was basically wearing snowboard gear. I picked up this cheap suit for about $100 to avoid spending the weekend looking like an abominable snowman.
“That’ll be $80 for the lunch buffet.” Okay, when I’m by myself somehow an $80 lunch seems less appealing. I asked the server if I could pretend like I’m going to order something long enough to snap a pic. Thankfully, she was cool with it and didn’t kick me out. P.S. What dance club used be housed in this location? I loved it back in the early 2000s.
Here’s some next level tourist action. I had to wait in line for about 30 minutes to get a shot at the sign. Was it worth it? Maybe.
