It has to be said that Vegas is such a city of excess. It amazes me that this place exists in the middle of the desert, and has had so much money thrown at every building and every part of it, that it's ridiculous. I miss the wildlife we've seen in the past week and now we have a whole new type of wildlife - for all the wrong reasons!!
Here are some of my observations:
- I feel very sober here.
- there are all sorts of obvious enhancements made here to body parts. No such thing as "less is more" here - more is definitely more.
- bikinis, 6 inch heels and nothing else is apparently appropriate attire for every occasion - restaurants, checking into hotels, walking in the main street...
- I cannot understand how anyone thinks.... Let's go to Vegas to get married - what a beautiful place for a wedding!!!
Anyway we headed to the outlet centre north of Las Vegas today and had an excellent time finding bargains. Kids we're keen to get Nikes and at less than half price of Australia everyone was happy!! The centre was outdoors and it was 43 degrees today, so we welcomed the many misting stations where we could cool down - they literally spray a fine mist all day long to help cool you down.
We all did well with our purchases (speaking of excess) and came home tired but happy.
A nice idea for a jacket for Finbarr Daddy but not so practical in our weather!!
