Las Vegas (Part Three)

Our third and last day of Las Vegas happened to be Easter.  For the longest time that morning, I was unsure how I felt about small girls wearing what I thought were playboy bunny ears.  But then I realized that the ears were for Easter, not something scandalous like the Playboy Club.

We quickly took a cab to the Wynn hotel after breakfast and had the opportunity to see the luxurious side of Las Vegas.  The hotels were super magnificent and swanky with loads and loads for luxury shops.  We even passed by a Longchamp boutique and I was dying to go in.  The Nordstrom's near where I live no longer carries Longchamp's bags, and I want one for school!

Anyways, lots of picture taking happened this day.  It's funny because that day we were dressed the most casual we had been the entire trip, but we were in the fanciest hotels on The Strip. We walked and walked down the strip and finally returned to the Luxor after a few hours.  I felt very accomplished that day because we had pretty much walked the entire strip and found souvenirs too!  (There is a store called the ABC store, which I swear has the best [read: cheapest] Vegas souvenirs.)

We got our last drinks at the Luxor and gambled for the last time.  Then we hopped in a Taxi, and said good bye to Las Vegas.  Our trip to the airport was probably our most amusing taxi ride because our taxi driver had a lot of character and wit.  It was a good way to end things.

We flew home with a stop in Oakland and a minor league baseball team joined us. They were funny.  When I got home, I felt so tired.  I took a hot bath to scrub off all of the Las Vegas dirt on my feet and found it relatively easy to doze off to sleep.
