Day 5 - Vegas

Image
What I Did: This morning we ate at Della's Kitchen. I had the Churro Waffle and my mom had the Spiced Pumpkin Pancakes and we shared a fruit bowl. Both of these were delicious and you will not be disappointed if you eat here. After breakfast, we went to the Linq Promenade located by the Strip. We had tickets to ride the High Roller, which I believe is the world's largest Ferris wheel. We did some shopping while waiting on our ride time of 12:00. The view was spectacular and it only costs twenty dollars to ride it. They do have night time rides and I can only imagine how beautiful that must be, but since we have a flight later in the day we had to do it early. After the ride, I grabbed a couple of cupcakes from the cupcake ATM. They have many flavors suitable for anyone, but I had the Sprinkle cupcake. My mom had the Red Velvet cupcake and both were delicious. Unfortunately, we had to leave much sooner than I was ready for. We went to the hotel, grabbed our bags and he...

What I Packed: My Backpack (Las Vegas)

Image
      I always use a backpack as my purse to carry on the plane. It is a lot easier to travel with a backpack instead of a heavy purse. You are allowed a carry on and a purse (at least in the USA), and also you might need the room on your return trip if you buy souvenirs that are fragile or expensive. You can add a couple of things from your carry-on to your backpack, and that frees up extra room in your carry on. My backpack is by Michael Kors and it came from Macy's.   - Wallet and D/L - Money - I-Phone - Charger - Scarf - Bobby Pins - Glasses - Power Charger - EOS Lip Balm - Tylenol - Tampons (because you never know) - Hand Sanitizer - Jewelry  

Day 4 - Vegas

Image
What I did:   My mom and I went back to the outlet mall after breakfast to do some more shopping. I would highly recommend this mall because of all the good values you can find. I picked out a lot of things for my mom to get me for Christmas. We were both pretty hungry after only eating a quick breakfast, so for lunch we went to the Cheesecake Factory. I have eaten there many times in Florida and always love it. We ordered the Edamame for appetizer which was very good. For my entrée, I had the Old Fashioned Burger with Sweet Potato Fries which was yummy. For dessert, I ordered the Cheesecake with Strawberries. Yum! After lunch, my mom and I went on a Segway Tour around Vegas which was so much fun. My mom was a little nervous since she had never been on a Segway, but we ended up having a lot of fun. It costs 120 dollars but was so worth it. We went back to the hotel to rest for a while and I went swimming for a while my mom soaked in the Jacuzzi.   For dinner we at...

Day 2 - Las Vegas

Day 2 - Las Vegas: Last night - After we arrived in Las Vegas and deboarded the plane, we went directly to our hotel before going to eat.  We ate down in the hotel's steak house restaurant and I had a ribeye. It was very good and the service was impeccable. After dinner, I went upstairs to our room and unpacked my clothes. My mom took me to the pool for a while and I had an amazing time.  Today - We ate breakfast at the Veranda in our hotel and I had Tiramisu Croissant French Toast and grape fruit segments.  Everything was amazing, although the service was a little slow. After breakfast, my mom and I went to the spa for manicures and pedicures. The spa was top notch. After that, we went to the Shark Reef which is at Mandalay Bay Resort. It was only about a five minute walk, and the price was pretty good ($20), but it wasn't that big. It was very educational and if you take kids to Vegas; they will probably enjoy it. After that, we ate at Della'...

What I Wore - Airplane Ride

Work Hard, Play Hard: Finals Season by swimwearlover featuring sleeveless hoodies My dad has to attend a business meeting in Las Vegas in a couple of days, so often times my mom and I accompany him. We will be staying for five days, and then going to California for a couple of days. Tampa's weather was in the seventies when I left and Las Vegas's weather was in the high 60's. I hope it warms up slightly while we are there. I always apply a sheet mask while on the airplane, and I bought a new kit with me to try. Airplanes dry your skin out, so drink plenty of water and keep your skin moisturized. What I Wore: - Sleeveless hoodie from Farfetch.com - Sweatpants from Jades24.com - Nike Shoes from Lord & Taylor - Black backpack from Mcmworldwide.com - Computer Case from Revolve.com - Earphones from Net-a-porter.com - Phone case from Azaleasf.com - Glasses from Eyebuydirect.com What I Used on the Plane: - Too ...
