What I learned during my first trip to Las Vegas:
- There is an inverse relationship between my enjoyment of gambling and my luck/skill at actually winning. Translation: I loved it but I sucked.
- I don't like being boo'ed at the craps table after I roll a 7. It's pretty demoralizing.
- The Nevada Gaming Commission takes itself rather seriously (for good reason, I suppose). Oh, and FYI: you can't be barefoot in a casino. House rules!
- Though a map will make it appear like the Bellagio is merely a couple blocks away from Treasure Island, it may very well take you an hour to walk there. However, in clear and sunny weather, I could sit in front of that fountain all day long and be happy. See my first Vimeo clip here.
- Vegas is decidedly like Disneyland for adults.
- A visit to the Hoover Dam will result in no less than a thousand "dam" jokes. And they're all hilarious. No matter what.
- Taking the red-eye flight home and going to work on Monday was not as cool as I thought it would be.
- What happens in Vegas doesn't necessarily stay in Vegas. Especially when there are fotos involved! (Enjoy!)
To conclude, I'd like to say congratulations to my friends Drew and Mary Quinn and wish them the best for a happy future together!
