Vegas In Pictures

Happy 4th for all of you celebrating Independence Day! :D  Hope you enjoyed some great weather and delicious bbq, I know I sure did!  (followed by a grueling Bar Method workout to negate the copious amounts of consumption, lol)

I'd been meaning to post more about my recent trip to Las Vegas, but was so wrapped up in doing all sorts of moving-related things that my images have remained stagnant in a file somewhere on my desktop until tonight.  Anyways, I had a little bit of time and thought I'd share my mini-vacay with you guys in pictures.  Cheers!



The two highlights of my trip were: dinner at MIX and seeing LOVE by Cirque Du Soleil.

MIX is a hip and trendy restaurant/lounge located on the rooftop of THEhotel, serving up haute cuisine in a unique environment of edgy and modern decor with breathtaking views of The Strip.  We decided to go all out and ordered the Alain Ducasse tasting menu for the entire party.  So delicious!  But after two glasses of sparkling rose and an Irish coffee, I could only finish half my dessert!  What a waste...

Oh, I fell in love with LOVE.  Have any of you ever been to a Cirque Du Soleil show?  It's an incredible experience, I get high during every performance I attend.  LOVE did not disappoint.  It was an amazing visual and audio feast.  I have a special place in my heart for The Beatles, and, being a Cirque fanatic, I can't imagine a more creative mash-up than a Beatles concert done Cirque Du Soleil style!  I would seriously see this show again and again...definitely on my top 5 list of Vegas shows!

  1. Yes! I have been to 2 Cirque Du Soleil shows- they were both AMAZING! I've wanted to see Love the last 3 times we've been to Vegas and either it was sold out already or we just couldn't go due to other plans :( Hopefully I'll catch it this year!

    1. Oh, I hope you do get a chance to see it, I know you're going to adore it! My other two favorites are "O" and "Le Reve", though technically not Cirque Du Soleil, it's the production of Franco Dragone, creator of Cirque!
