Las Vegas in the summertime

Better late than never I suppose! The long weekend spent in Las Vegas feels like a lifetime ago, but the photos taken stir up memories whenever I look at them. We had an awesome, yet hot time in Vegas. There was lots of wandering around both outside and inside the various themed-hotels. We stayed in Bally's, which was definitely affordable and a great location on the strip. Below are photos showing the view from our hotel room, which I thought was a fantastic one.

We spent a little bit of time by the pool, in the morning of course before the heat really set in. Although on this trip we mainly shopped, with my purchases discussed here. When it comes to shopping in Vegas, I usually shop at The Forum Shops in Caesars Place and the Fashion Show Mall. We probably only had two actual meals whilst we were in Vegas; The Cheesecake Factory at Caesars Palace (sadly without any cheesecake consumption because the portion size of the meal was too big) and the dinner buffet at the Wynn. The buffet was a suggestion from a work colleague and was amazing, I ate so much food and I was quite greedy with the desserts. This once more just highlights that I am no good at buffets, but I keep on trying. We also did a little bit of gambling without success, but it was fun nonetheless. I don't usually post photos of anyone on here, but the two photos below are a couple of my favourites from the trip, so I couldn't resist. I mean, who doesn't want to be dwarfed by a giant ice cream?

We didn't get to a show or anything this time around, however I feel like there will definitely be a next time. I have been to Vegas four times now and I thought after trip number three last year I was done, but I have realised that is not the case. I want to finish by sharing a collage of photos I put together after sifting through the ones that were taken. It was hard to choose which ones because my awesome housemate and co-pilot on this adventure, Hillary, took so many great ones...thank you!
