Las Vegas...Day 2

Friday morning we slept in a little bit and proceeded to get ready for our day ahead. We went up to the food court and found Starbucks coffee. We each had a coffee and pastry and then headed downstairs to catch a bus. We were going to an outlet mall to shop! We went to the Las Vegas Outlet Center which is located just south of McCarran Airport. I talked to my friend Halli whom moved to Vegas just over a year ago. Remember this? She had agreed to meet us so that we could visit. She met us at the outlet mall and then drove us to another outlet mall that she said was nicer. The Premium Outlets Mall. They are at opposite ends of the strip....basically. After we had seen all we could, she took us to her home. There, JB, her girls Liberti and Glori, and her niece and nephew, Tristan and Tanzi, greeted us. Her girls remembered me and were as excited as I was to see them! I received big hugs from them! Such little sweethearts! JB is in the Air Force and their home is on the base. We chatted and took pictures before Halli had to take us back to our hotel. It was wonderful to see them and catch up.

That night, we had planned on going to the strip show. We got ourselves all gussied up and went to the second floor. Here there was a small auditorium where the show was going to be held. It started at 9PM so we went early to find our seats and buy a couple of cocktails. One round and $17 later, we decided that would be the ONLY round of drinks we would have! Ridiculous!
We thoroughly enjoyed what we saw (sorry for the pun!) and an hour and half later, we went back to our room. It had been a busy day and we were exhausted! Tomorrow was going to be an even bigger day than today!

I notice that your stingy with the details regarding the strip show . . . and no photos of that whatsoever. Hm. Did you make a backstage visit afterwards?!
