The List: Visit Las Vegas- Completed 7/17/09

Birthday List Beginnings

When I turned 30, I decided to make a list of 30 things that I had not done that I wanted to try to accomplish in my 30th year. After all, life is short, and I want to go out knowing that I truly LIVED the life that I had.

That year's amazing experiences, adventures, and fun times make me want to keep the list going. I've decided to use this blog space to document the adventures...and to update and add to the list each year.

To see what I've accomplished, click on the archive links on the right to go to specific items from the list in order of the date they were accomplished. New, partially accomplished, or not started items can be found under "November 2011," since I have the year to work on them.

Let me know what adventures you'd like to join me in! You can use the "comment" function to leave me notes. I hope I inspire you to create a list of your own...let me know and if you need someone to join you in your adventures. I'll probably be up for it!

Visit Las Vegas- Completed 7/17/09

So it's true, I had never been to Vegas...and I had to see what all the fuss was about. I

organized a trip with my mom, aunt, cousin (Katrina), and second cousin (Asha) to visit this crazy city.

We also spent some time with Susan and Jerry Monahan (my sister-in-law's parents). I took advantage of time share deals as much as possible to get a few free nights at Bally's and some free show tickets. We got to see magic shows, comedy, variety, as well as

Mystere (the Cirque Du Soleil show), and Jubilee! Dining was fantastic and nightlife was entertaining. Kat and I hit Lavo, one of the dance clubs. We also went to an ice bar.
