A couple weeks ago, Dan and I flew to Las Vegas for a 3-day weekend with some of my college friends! It was the first time being in Sin City for both Dan and myself, so everything was new to us! We got to eat some good food, watch the Cirque du Soleil show KA (the highlight of the trip for me!) and even I dabbled in some gambling…!
Here are some photos:
Arriving in Vegas.
We all stayed in a suite together at the Luxor.
Richard, Dan, and I were the first ones to get there! Here are the guys playing with their Android phones at lunch... so nerdy.
For dinner, we went to RM Seafood at Mandalay Bay
They had some delicious sustainable seafood. Thanks for the recommendation, Jenn! 🙂
I played the slots, and won 5 times what I put in! (I put in $2, came out with $10.)
The Strip at night.
Waiting to see KA at the MGM Grand.
The gentlemen before the show.
Waiting for pho lunch the next day at Treasure Island.
Outside of Treasure Island with some of my favorite Hokies! I missed them a lot!
Ice cream floats at Burger Bar for lunch the next day...
All of us at the Luxor.
Dan and I at the Flamingo hotel before leaving for the airport.
I was feeling under the weather much of the weekend, so I feel like I wasn’t able to fully enjoy Vegas, but it was nice to be able to see some of my college friends again. Next weekend, we’ll be flying to Phoenix to visit my cousin’s family for Labor Day Weekend, but after that, we’ll be done with jetsetting for a while….
KA was amazing! It’s only my second time seeing a Cirque du Soleil show, but I loved it. Since it’s a permanent stage, they were able to do some really impressive things. I want to see Mystere someday, too!

I think we need to take you on a LADIE’s trip to Vegas Misono 😛
oOoo that sounds like fun!
I’ll have to admit it sounds a little more appealing than going with a whole bunch of guys… it was a sausagefest but I still had fun.
