The Entertainment Capital of the World.

What do you get when you throw in a little bit of Paris:

A little bit of Rome:

Maybe some Venice:

Brian and I love traveling and one of our destinations this year was to Las Vegas. I grew up in New Jersey, so Atlantic City was always a few hours drive away. This was the first time we have been to Vegas and it is quite an extravagant and decadent city. We had a blast watching two Cirque du Soleil shows, O and Mystere (both excellent), and came back with lighter wallets and blisters. I loved the low humidity (kind of a shock to come back to 98% humidity in Richmond) and had to chuckle a bit with the palm trees and fake grass (astroturf) in the desert.

As much as I love traveling there is always the thrill of coming home.
