Better late than never!


We are now in Bryce Canyon after a whirlwind night in Las Vegas! It took about six and a half hours to finally get to Vegas after leaving Gilroy, and we were tired! The Hard Rock would not let us check in until 3PM, so we took that opportunity to explore the Strip. It was super hot--about 97 degrees! After exploring for awhile, we finally got to check in. It was a fairly nice room, but there was not a plasma TV! I was so looking forward to that...:) I do not think that we will stay there again--it is like a huge frat party and was not really our style. After resting for awhile, we made our way to TI to eat at Social House for dinner. The food was really good, but they charged us for everything! James ordered teriyaki chicken and wanted rice on the side, since it did not come with anything else. That added an extra 5 bucks, plus another 5 for miso soup and edamame! Our waiter was also quite scarce, which is disappointing for such an expensive place.

We made our way to the Venetian after dinner to wait for the Blue Man Group show. I would highly recommend that show to anyone--it was awesome! We thoroughly enjoyed it and were entertained the whole time.

I completely missed this post *lol*. Sorry you had such an expensive stay in Vegas.

We've never stayed at the Hard Rock but I'm not surpised regarding your comments. Every time we've gone there to eat or just visit, we've had to battle our way through crowds of drunk youngsters. Although it's worth doing it just once to see all the stuff in the cases.
I've always wanted to see that Blue Man show. It sounds like it was worth the cost of the tickets.
