Vegas Trip 2011 Day 2

Since the night before we had gone to bed around 9pm, I ended up waking up around 430am.  It was a beautiful morning, and I was really enjoying the view from our beautiful room at MGM, but YB was still sound asleep so I decided to take a morning jog on the strip.  That was WEIRD!  I mean who actually wakes up that early in Vegas??? I am usually one of the ones stumbling back to my hotel at that hour, so it was hilarious watching drunk guys spill out of casinos and girls walking barefoot carrying their heels from the night before.
When I got back to the hotel, I was greeted by an interesting suprize.  YB had woken up and got all dressed up in his new Vegas "dandy" style as he calls it, and was ready to hit the strip.  I thought it was hilarious because it was only 930am at this time and we were going to be spending the whole day at the pool anyway.  He said he was just doing "M Life".  I was really confused as to what "M Life" was, but then I turned and looked at the TV and saw Carrot Top advertising for guests to "Live the M Life" and get an MGM credit card so you can spend money and live the luxury life in Vegas.  Well, for the rest of the trip our theme was "M Life"!

Anyway, post "M Life" photo shoot, we headed down to the pool to enjoy the afternoon with the girls.  Best friends+cocktails+lazy river= PERFECT AFTERNOON!  We spent most of it floating along the lazy river through the MGM pool area.  The only annoying thing was tubes cost $14 and they wouldn't let me bring my own intertube.  I was really annoyed by that when they confiscated my tube when I tried sneaking it in.  Anyway, that didn't stop the fun!

Pool time was fabulous, and a totally memorable day!  It made me really grateful for all the fantastic girls I have met along the way.  I am really lucky to have such a great group of friends surrounding me.  I felt really proud introducing YB to everyone... and he was in love with all my friends too!

After pooltime we rallied and went to dinner at a sushi restaurant for dinner. Unfortunately, YB and I forgot our ID's and we had already switched over to the Excalibur hotel for the night, so we had to go back and get them.  We missed most of dinner, but I wasn't bothered because Excalibur has a Dairy Queen downstairs.  I got a much needed blizzard to keep me going, and we headed back to MGM to meet everyone.

I was dying, and in no mood to go out but rallied to the best of my ability and made it out tothe club Moon at The Palms with the girls.  Unfortunately, YB couldn't get in because he wasn't following dress code.  I still went up to the club and danced a bit before heading back down to meet YB.  All in all it was a successful day in Vegas, with no major injuries or deaths.
