Las Vegas - Day 1

Our trip to Las Vegas was FABULOUS! I can't believe it's already over! Here's a rundown of our first day of trip, along with some pictures...

Day 1 - Sunday, December 7

We arrived Las Vegas around 2:00 Vegas time. We hopped on a shuttle that took us directly to the lobby of our hotel, the Planet Hollywood. As soon as we saw our HUGE room (on the 31st floor), we were out the door to find our way to THE STRIP! After taking a few pix in front of the hotel...

...we stopped at the first restaurant we saw, The Harley Davidson Cafe - which served up some of the best BBQ I've had (or maybe I was just REALLY hungry!) The inside and outside of the cafe was really neat - they had a giant American flag made of painted chains. There were also actual Harley's hanging from the ceiling on a track that are supposed to move above us as we eat. Unfortunately the track wasn't running...but it was still cool to see Harley's hanging above us!

After dinner we continued to the south end of the strip. We stopped in a few shops, like the Coca Cola store & M&M's world. I've never seen so many M&M products!

I think my favorite part of the store was the wall of M&M's! They had the little chocolate candies in about every color you could think of! YUM! After a little browsing through the shops, we decided to cross the street and head back to our hotel. We arrived at the Bellagio hotel just in time to see the fountain display! It was choreographed to Frank Sinatra's "Luck Be a Lady". It was incredibly beautiful, and oddly serene in the middle of the craziness of the Vegas Strip!

After taking some more pictures of our hotel from the Bellagio walkway, we headed back to our room & lounged for the evening...

...preparing ourselves for a full day of activities on Day 2!
