10. Ethel's Chocolate Factory
We took a long taxi ride out to the factory on New Year's Day. They were open but not making chocolate! I did get to purchase chocolate in the gift shop before taking a taxi ride back to the strip. The whole trip took 45 minutes and too much $$. While walking through the Flamingo later in the week I saw an Ethel's chocolate store. I'm glad Grand had a good sense of humor about my mis-adventure
9. New Year's Eve Fireworks
8. Brazilian Restaurant
As if my cholesterol intake wasn't high enough on this trip, we visited a Brazilian style restaurant (all you can eat meat). We tried everything but by the end would only except filet or roast beef.
7. Best Buffet search, winner: Bellagio!
We did serious research, looking for the best buffet. The winner was clearly the Bellagio. I had lots of Kobe top sirloin and 3 creme brulees. Magnific!!
6. Le Reve
A water based Cirque du Soleil show at the new Wynn Hotel and Casino. It was amazing!
5. First Class
Since I was 7 months pregnant on this trip Grant got first class plane tickets so I would be comfortable. It was so much fun!!
4. Hacienda Nicholas Bed and Breakfast
I have already talked about the AWESOME B&B in Santa Fe. I loved it!!!
3. White out at the Grand Canyon
1 mile down, 10 miles across and 1/4 mile visibility. Needless to say we couldn't see a thing but we did enjoy walking along the canyon rim in the snow storm
2. Jersey Boys
The story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. I LOVE their music!
1. Grand Canyon
We arrived for the last of sunrise. It was beautiful, covered in the untouched snow
