Ahh, Vegas was so much fun! I LOVE road trips and so the trip down was great, we sang at the top of our lungs, had mt. dew, talked and got more and more excited for the meet up with our friends and the Neon Trees concert the next day. When we got to Vegas Molly humored Darice and I and drove up the strip so we could quickly see everything. Then because she is GREAT she even agreed to walk part of the strip so that Darcie and I could check things out :) We saw the show at Treasure Island (dumb!), had dinner at Planet Hollywood and then walked to the Bellagio to see the fountains. By that point we were so tired that we just sat down on the sidewalk (Vegas is so dirty, I can't believe I did that!) and waited. We didn't know how often the fountains went off and so once we had waited about an hour we finally asked a worker and it turns out that we had just missed the last one so we had waited there for an hour for no reason! As I said we were exhausted so we decided to take a cab back and not walk the three miles back to our hotel. Holy moly cabs there are expensive. It was about $10.50 for a three mile cab ride. I think we all crashed really quickly that night! :)
The next day we got up and me and Darcie walked to Starbucks so she could get her coffee fix and Molly got ready (she slept later than us and so took a bit longer to get ready) then we all got in the car and drove to the resort that the concert was going to be held at. Molly and I stood in line pretty much from noon until they let us in and then we (Molly, me, Darcie, Debbie, Molly 2 and Taisha) stood at the barricade until the concert started. Although at a couple of points Molly and I were able to get out of line...we both spent $10 in slot machines which we lost right away and then we had a quick lunch.
The concert itself was amazing! I have loved almost every Neon Trees concert I have been to but this one was a new favorite! I was brought to tears a couple of times (first time ever at one of their concerts) and we were front and center. Plus we got to hang out with the tour guitarist after and we were able to see and talk to everyone in the band except for the bassist before the concert....Ok that is all for now. I will leave you with some pictures. There are a lot of them :)
