Vegas, baby! {part two}

Yesterday's post mostly covered the first day. Since we got into Las Vegas in the afternoon we didn't have much time for anything, but get ready and head out! On the second day, we met up with our long lost friend, Lauren, who moved to California shortly after our 2009 graduation. It was so wonderful seeing her and catching up on life! We checked out the pool & 'beach' areas, but the sun was causing our skin to sizzle so we headed out to the strip to shop and check out what Vegas had to offer. Although, I only won a penny on the first night (yes that would be $0.01), I made up for it on Saturday when we hit up the Paris casino and left with $95 in my pocket! I'm not a huge gambler, but it was fun to try the different slot machines.

{The night ended with goldfish petting, because who doesn't want to do that? Also, check out the tile work in the Wynn, isn't it fabulous!}

*XS was by far the best club we went to during our visit. The club had tables and dancing inside with more tables and dancing and cabanas and pools outside. This was also the club where the "Asian Invasion" occurred. Just imagine: an extremely drunk Asian man and his not so drunk side kick. They both approach my group of girls and the very drunk Asian starts to dance wildly; flailing his arms around , getting incredibly close to each of us while dancing and shaking his booty in our faces. I thought I was safe to get up and walk away, but no, he tracked me down and swopped me and my kinda short dress up and swung me around like a doll. Incredibly awkward and incredibly scary. I'm glad we all survived.

Stay tuned for highlights of day 3 tomorrow!
