On day 2 in Las Vegas (Halloween!), we had breakfast at a cute little coffee shop in our hotel. We had veggie quiche and a Nutella pocket (a Nutella-filled pastry–YUM!) and coffee. My coffee had raspberry liquer and Frangelico, and it was waaaaay too strong. We then played a few slot machines in the Bellagio before heading out for the day.
We then just walked around some of the casinos (Caesar’s Palace, Treasure Island, Mirage, Wynn, Venetian). We were tired by the time we got to the Venetian, so we stopped for a treat (I had blackberry sorbet, Jason had amaretto gelato–yum yum!). We then met up the blogger group for lunch at Sushi Samba in the shops at the Venetian. It was a pretty awesome place–it is Asian/Peruvian/Brazilian fusion, so I had sushi with a South American flair. We then went back to our room and took a nap.
After our nap, we headed out to watch all the Halloween festivities! We took Halloween costumes but were afraid we’d be the only ones in costume, so we went down in normal clothes. Let me tell you, there were LOTS of people in costume!! It was pretty entertaining to watch! We first stopped at the Fountains and watched them dance to “Appalachian Spring” (one of my all-time favorite songs) and then had dinner at Paris (pizza again! Jason had a crepe). We then went to Planet Hollywood for drinks, and we saw Jerry Springer! He walked right by us! He is there doing an “America’s Got Talent” show, and he was on his way to dinner after the show and walked right past it. It was pretty cool!
After drinks in Planet Hollywood, we walked around to a few casinos to check out the clubs. I really wanted to go to a club while we were there, but it just didn’t happen this trip. Many of the clubs were having Halloween parties, and the lines to get in were super long. So we just people-watched, which was great fun!
That was it for day 2–nothing terribly exciting, but fun nonetheless!

I had to take a picture of this for my sister–her name means butterfly! These were in the Wynn and were decorating the ceiling of one section. They were beautiful–all glittery and sparkly!

My favorite!
