Las Vegas!

Three days at Vegas certainly passed by fast. I felt like we didn't get to do much. So the first day there, it was fucken hot and humid. I'm sure it's expected since it's like summertime. Anyways, just explored around. By the way,  I went with my aunt and her family, and my brother. Since my cousins were all too young, we couldn't go into any casinos. LOL It's not like I could gamble either, but I could've played those slot machine thingys. Well, anyways we went to watch some shows and basically sightseeing. Oh yeah so we stayed at the Riviera Hotel. It was nice, and it was right across the street from Circus Circus. That night I had about 2/3 hours of sleep cuz I kept hearing these random sounds and I got scared. ): I woke up in the middle of the night, wanting to text but scared to wake people up. Well, the next day we took a tour bus to Grand Canyon. We had to get ready by 6, which wasn't a problem for me cuz I was already up. HAHA. Anyways, on the way I took a nap which was good, consider there would be alot of walking later on in the day. When we go to Grand Canyon, we had to transfer to another shuttle bus to go all the way to the top of the canyon. Boy, it was the rockiest and bumpiest ride ever. There were so much rocky, it was actually pretty fun. LOL! After we got to the top, we just went to different areas to explore. We were at the Skywalk and it was fucken scary. It's basically where there's a whole floor of glass and step on it to loook out into the view. When I first stepped on it, my knees went weak. You look down and you can see how high you are from the top of the canyon all the way to the bottom. The feeling of it was even scarier than riding the X2 at Six Flags. I felt like I was gonna fall off or something. Man, I'm never going back again. HAHA but hey at least now I can say "I DID IT!" :D Well, we had an early lunch and after went to the next stop. There, we basically hiked part of the canyon. It was rough and hot. I wore gladiators. So smart! Anyways, I could feel my legs burning and we were all sweaty. I didn't get to hike the peak of this one part because it was steep and rocky and I didn't have the right shoes so I didn't go. My brother and 2 of my cousins did it. LOL Then after just walk around, take pictures, sit around, and waited for the shuttle to come take us down. Another rocky ride, but this time it was hella dusty outside. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, so I met a couple guys at the canyon, we were on the same shuttle bus, and like they asked where I was from. I was like California. And one guy was like "You're a Cali girl?! No way!" I'm like yeah I am. They said I was too pale to be a Cali girl! LOL They're so hilarious. Hey it's not my fault I can't get tanned. I hope I can get a bit tanner this summer, but we shall see. Anyways, they were pretty cool. Chatted and one was like telling me stories about college and trying to scare me off. Yeah really now. One was pretty cute and sweet, but I regret not to ask for his number. ): Oh well. So came back to the hotel and then relaxed a bit. Chilled by the pool. Later we went out at night. Walked to see some shows that was playing at night. It was some Pirates thing. Walked back to hotel and it was like 11ish already. So got ready for bed and I had such a good night sleep, maybe cuz I did so much walking and I was super tired. The next day woke up and checked out the hotel and then went to the Chocolate Factory. So much M & M's, I'm not even kidding. We each got like a bag full of candy. HEHE. Actually only children get to have it, but I got one too. They thought I was just 15. ROFL! V^___^V YAY! Funny stuff.  Anyways, 2 hour drive back and went to the Tanger Barstow Outlet. We were mainly there cuz my aunt wanted to shop for some Coach stuff. So I got a Coach purse and this card holder thing. It was pretty cute and there was a huge sale plus we got a additional 30% off. My aunt got a bunch load of purses and wristlets. And just shopped around. There weren't much stores that I had wanted. Went to Aero and I got this white jean jacket for only $6, originally $50. WOW! Good deal! HAHA. Anyways, it was another 2 hour drive before we got back to LA. Finally, came home and I took a shower. My cousins came over for dinner and then that's basically it. The whole vacation seemed short, but it was fun. Only sad thing, I didn't see any Filopino boys. HAHA. I'm kidding. I know where Filopino boys reside. They're in Riverside. And I'll be sure to go there this summer! (: HEHEHEHEEE
