Let's Get Outta Here!

We took the kids to Las Vegas for a quick road trip. We stayed at the SouthPoint hotel and casino, which I would recommend for it's large, new rooms and it's off the Strip location. It has a bowling alley, swimming pool, movie theatre, nasty buffet and a Bingo room. Everything you could ask for in a Vegas resort.
My 1/4 Irish children looked like they needed to be taken to the Emergency Room for sunstroke each time we took them out of the air conditioning and into the heat of Vegas.


We stopped at Calico Ghost Town on the way into Vegas. We could only take the heat for about 30 minutes. Fortunately, it only takes 20 minutes to see every thing there was to see so it worked out fine.
I don't know if Cigar Store Indians...I mean Native Americans are still PC but we took a photo anyway.
We climbed up to the top of the hill and this is the view of the Ghost Town from the top.
Rachel and Allie at the Bellagio garden.
Get me OUT of this stroller!!!!!!!
Bellagio garden again.

We had so much fun packed into 4 days. Lance hadn't gone on an official vacation for 2 years and it was great for him to get away. We might have to make the quick trip to Vegas a yearly tradition.
