All Girls Weekend 2010

This year was the year of the "posh" stay - Thanks Suz for finding the deal of the week on this hotel.  The hotel itself isn't right on the strip, however, it's not that far OFF strip either.  It's to the north of the Fashion Place Mall and about a block off strip - although it is only an empty lot towards the strip.  I'm sure that will change soon enough since the Frontier has been removed and I'm sure that there will be another hotel take it's place soon enough.
 Gotta LOVE the bath tub in this place!  It's HUGE!!
 The room - very nice room....
The view.  with Linda on the sleeper sofa.
Dinner on night one at the Mirage Buffet.

Day 2 - a visit to the Dam.  Linda and I walked up to the overlook from the bridge to see the dam from that view - very nice.

Click on the picture to view in larger size... Linda is at the 2nd column waving :o)
Mom was sooo mad that we wouldn't let her walk to the top of the bridge (*I* was huffing and puffing at the top - which isn't shocking... since I'm soo out of shape) because it was about 2+ floors worth of stairs... and only because, yes, she could have done it, but would have been worn out for the day.... she decided she wanted to take a helicopter ride instead!  Yes MOM made this call - and we went with her :o)
 
 

The view at night from our hotel room - between the Mirage and what I can only assume is the Bellagio we could see the fountains going off from time to time :o)
 Dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Treasure Island Casino.  Nothing to write home about...not really great Mexican food, however GREAT company!!
 The Lobby at the Trump  morning #3
The Challenge that went awry - taking the first bite. 
After the challenge fiasco sharing the burrito with everyone at dinner. 
 The End
 

Did I mention how much I love my wacky funny family :o)

Did I find the hotel? I know I voted for it, but I'll take credit. :) It was a lot of fun and I love my crazy and fun family too. Although I know I'm probably the craziest. Tee hee.
