Baby Tour 2014: Day 3/4 (Viva Las Vegas)

We arrived in Vegas around 5:30pm and thought we'd come in on the strip. By the time we made it to the Excalibur we decided to park and grab dinner before heading to our hotel. We parked at the New York, New York and ate at the Sporting House where they had a $17.95 Sunday night special for Prime Rib... It was amazing! Even better, when we went to pay we found it had been covered by a friend we ran into while there! 

After a short walk we headed to our room at the 4 Queens on Fremont Street. We cruised the strip to get there and were very frustrated with the difficulty in finding their parking garage! It took around an hour to wiggle our way through taxi cabs and your busses.

When we finally arrived we dropped off our luggage, changed Lily into pajamas and headed outside. Our room was much nicer than expected. It turned out to be a suite! The hotel itself was really disappointing. 

Fremont street was like one big, crazy party! I had expected things to be mellow compared to the strip, but it actually seemed rowdier! There were even women dressed as naked nuns... Bizarre! Walking down the street, people kept stopping to look at Lily. A couple of Japanese women even stopped to take her picture! We tried to make it into the Golden Gate before we were stopped by security and told we couldn't walk through with Lily. He said "but MY GOD is she BEAUTIFUL!!! That baby needs to be on TV!" 

We had another early start and grabbed some breakfast at Denny's.  Lily had small pieces of blue berry pancakes and chunks of banana. Chris asked her, "would you like some banana?" She replied "baaaa nananana!!!" Then while she ate it she would say "mmmm banananana!" So cute! After breakfast we loaded the car and headed out. 

Next stop... Prescott, AZ where Lily will meet her great Mamaw & Pampaw!
