Its Been A While

Last week we were able to meet up with another friend on holiday in Vegas (we've seen more people in the last 6 months than we saw the whole 8 years we lived in Europe?!). It has been years since Ive seen "Kitty" and this was my first opportunity to meet her husband. We met up with them at their hotel, Bally's, and strolled around. We love exploring casinos on the strip and Bally's is connected to the Paris hotel which I have been wanting to check out for a while now.

Direction signs in french...yeah I was feeling some Europe nostalgia.

A huge fountain under the middle of the Eiffel Tower...walking around this casino that gave you an illusion of being outside was intriguing. I didn't exactly feel like I was outside per say but I did enjoy it none the less.

Animal was all about the water features. We had to stop at just about every fountain so that he could check them out. He even threw in a few pennies.



Sometimes it is hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that everyone I grew up with are now adults just like me. Wowa...adults?! Really? Lets just say I have known this girl since she was a wee lassie and her brother was still in diapers (he's only a couple years younger than us).


I would love to return someday to actually travel up the Eiffel Tower, the view must be amazing.
Whats Paris without a burlesque girl? They have a show obviously but unlike the Moulin Rouge the age requirement is 18 at least so Q-tip will just have to wait until hes older to get a look at this show. I do slightly regret canceling our Moulin Rouge trip, what the heck was I thinking...the US baffles me.

I love all the pictures! It's amazing what Vegas has to offer! I'm glad you were able to spend time with yet another friend from "back in the day"! Isn't it weird how other people actually grow up too?!?! lol I'm still amazed when I hear that people have gotten married/had kids/etc too!

Wish it was me that was on your blog as your next visitor...but I'm afraid it won't be for a loooong time.
