Celine Dion

Over the weekend Jason, Tanner, Janna and I went to Vegas. Janna and Tanner went to Cedar City on Friday and we were to pick them up the next morning on our way to Vegas. We went to bed and woke up at 5:30 to shower and get ready to leave by six. The night before it had been raining a lot, so it wasn't that big of a surprise when we got in the car and it had started to snow. The roads were alright for a little while and progressively got worse. It was like a cycle it would be fine, then it would start to rain, then it would start to snow, then it would rain again, and then it would be fine. We made it to Cedar city and picked up Tanner and Janna, we stopped at McDonalds on our way out to get something to eat and to use the restrooms. The stinking McDonalds had flat screen tv's on the walls. It was crazy! They also had tv's in the restrooms!

We made it to Vegas, and it was so nice to see buildings instead of the desert scenery, full of shrubs and joshua trees. Our first stop was at an outlet mall. Jason chose it because it had an Adidas outlet and a nike outlet. They didn't really have that many sales in the Adidas outlet so we kept walking to see what other stores they had and we found another Adidas outlet, they had some pretty good sales and that made Jason and Tanner happy. Tanner got some awesome looking shoes.

We started to get really hungry so we went to our hotel to check in. They had an electronic check in (maybe I haven't been to hotel in a while) but I thought that was really neat! We checked in and put our stuff in the room, and then drove to In'N'Out. We ate and watched a "mustang club" out the window. Before we realized they were a mustang club we were wondering why they were looking at a mustang instead of the Porche 911 Turbo. Haha.

After In'N'Out we decided to try to find an outlet store we had driven past on our way into Vegas. After only a few minutes we found it. The outlet had stores like 'Armani' 'Dolce & Gabana' 'White House, Black Market' 'David Yurman' 'Adidas' and tons of others. They had so many good sales. We went into Dolce & Gabana and found most of the items were on sale... There was a red fur jacket on sale for only $6,000!! Haha. They also had a skirt on sale. It was pink and it was about knee length, I was actually considering buying it (It was on sale for only $30). We pulled it off the hanger and realized there was a slit in the side of it, it would have gone clear up to my upper thigh! I didn't want to get because then I would have had to sew it and I wanted to buy something to be able to wear to the Celine Dion Concert that we were going to that night. We kept walking and found a Banana Repulic outlet store and found a dress. It was perfect! (Also on sale)

We got back to the hotel and got ready for Celine. We then went to the strip. Our hotel had an entrance to the Monorail. We had gotten monorail day passes which would last 24 hours. We got to the monorail and there was a monster brand projection thing that projected a pond onto the ground and when you stepped in it, it would make ripples as if you were really walking in the pond. It was amazing. I really want one! Anyways...

We went to the Venetian and oh my goodness!!! The place is even more awesome than I thought it would be! Janna tried telling me about it and seeing it in real life was just so much better. The ceilings were painted like the skies they even had the gondola's they traveled from inside the shops to the outside, it was amazing. We walked around the strip for a little bit and then finally it was time to go to Caesars palace and see Celine Dion.

We got to Caesars, went through security, went up the stairs and got to our seats. This was the worst, having to wait for her to start. Finally after waiting even past the time on our tickets, IT STARTED! There was a screen on the back of the stage with stairs projected on it. Celine was at the top, and started walking down, lights went out and she was further down the stairs walking down, the lights went out again and she was on the stage!!! Everyone started freaking out. It was incredible. The whole concert was amazing. The only thing that wasn't good, was the directors style. It was awful. To quote Jason, "If I were to take a bunch of trash and throw it on the stage, it would still look better than that" (In reference to the stage and random junk in the show). Celine was fabulous though. At the beginning they had security and made everyone check in their cameras. Tanner and Janna brought them and tanner had to check his in and so did Janna, but somehow they smuggled it in... So we took some pictures. After the show we walked around again. Got some gelato, went into Tiffany's, and Jimmy Choo. It said sale on the window and when we went in to see what they had (just to look at the prices) we didn't see any sale! Haha.

The next morning we went back to the Paris and went to a little place called "La Creperie" It was amazing. They had HUGE crepes! They were so good. We all got some, they had some dessert crepes, and they also had crepes stuffed with actual food. After the Crepe store we left and came home. The whole trip was amazing. I loved it all.
