We wanted to relax on our last day in Las Vegas. I have not mentioned everything that we did because we did a lot. However, on the last day, we went to a place called the Forum Shops, which is located in Caesars Palace.
The Forum Shops is a collection of a few of the most expensive luxury stores there is. Stores include Tiffany’s, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci. We did not buy anything from these stores for obvious reasons, but it was interesting to check it out.
When we were done “shopping” we went back to the hotel. We wanted to spend our last day relaxing at the pool and we arrived just in time for happy hour. It was really nice to spend time at the pool. I have not done so in a very long time. It almost felt like I got a taste of paradise when enjoying a few drinks at the pool.
Both my girlfriend and I felt a little bad about going back to New York later in the day. Our faces and shoulders started to burn pretty badly at the end of the day. We had not anticipated how strong the sun really was because we felt chilled when spending time in the pool.
In any event, before taking of from Las Vegas Airport, we gambled for $10. We lost it of course but now we can say that we gambled in Las Vegas. We had to make one stop in Philadelphia but we only had to wait for thirty minutes after landing for that flight.
The plane from Philadelphia to New York was a Dash 8 propeller plane. That was pretty scary, as it only seated about 25 passengers. The ride went rather smoothly however and we landed in New York safely.
We felt the New York attitude quickly after landing. People are simply more aggressive in New York and can be pretty rude at times. The bus driver was a real jerk for example and had a very arrogant attitude. After living in the city for three years, both my girlfriend and I did expect this.
I am trying to get used to Eastern Time now. Although it is only three hours difference between Nevada and New York, we are exhausted because of hour early morning and night time flights. We woke up at about 2 PM today, the day after we came back. Hopefully, I will be able to wake up earlier tomorrow so that I will not feel too tired for work and school next week. The trip was awesome and we had a really good time. Being a little jet lagged is a small price to pay for a trip that will be remembered forever.
