Vegas is a funny place, friends.



There are people from all walks of life flooding the streets with their giant jugs of alcohol, coming out of buffets where they've stuffed themselves silly, snapping pictures of the lights, the architecture, and brand name store fronts. People with Prada shoes, maxi dresses and expensive jewelry, people with cargo shorts, crocs, and their tshirts that say "Hawaii" on them. There are girls in really tight synthetic dresses out on the town, and lots of men in business suits. There are escalators everywhere, speakers line the sidewalks and pump out showtunes and jazz music. Everything is lit to within an inch of its life, and everyone is having a great time. Everyone is smiling. Even the taxi drivers. Vegas was very expensive, more than I could have even imagined. But there was something about it, maybe it was the incredible food, or the poolside drinks and complimentary cucumbers, or maybe it was the cabana boys, but I will definitely be back there someday. Las Vegas, you were good to me and I miss you already. I hardly knew ye...
