Vegas baby!

So I haven't finished unpacking my boxes yet even though I've been in my place for month and I don't have that much stuff, but I did find time to head to Vegas last weekend with a couple girlfriends from Portland. We stayed at Treasure Island which was perfect location - right next to the shopping mall and close to the Wynn and Venetian. The Wynn was gorgeous, would have loved to stay there, but sadly I don't have an extra $400 a night lying around for a hotel room.

We didn't do much Thursday night after we arrived, but Saturday we had tickets to see the Cirque du Soleil show Ka and it was awesome. So incredible with the sets and choreography and music and everything else. I think my favorite part was the shadow puppets - who comes up with this stuff? And of course we hit some clubs while we were there as well. Jet at the Mirage on Friday and Tao at the Venetian on Saturday. Tao has a great restaurant and a even better club including a rooftop area that would have been the perfect place to be if it wasn't for the heat. Anyhow it was a fun trip and next time I want to see O.
