Christmas 2011 trip!

My husband and I knew we wanted to take a vacation somewhere some time in 2011, so we figured we would do it during Christmas, and we decided to visit his brother and his wife in Las Vegas, NV. I've only visited once before, but this time my stay would be much longer, and we would be staying in my in-laws' house located just outside of the Vegas strip. We also decided to take a road trip to Los Angeles, CA with my in-laws. The trip was very memorable, the sights were beautiful, the food was scrumptious, the shows were spectacular, and the shopping was awesome! Needless to say...we had a great time; thank you to Salvi and Cyndi for your generous hospitality! :-)

Trip highlights:
- Los Angeles: eating chicken & waffles at Roscoe's; late night hotdog dinner at the famous Pink's hotdog stand; shopping at The Grove; double-decker bus tour...
- Las Vegas: the sights!! - I never knew Vegas had that much scenery!...the beautiful mountains, canyons...so breath-taking; the shows!! - we watched the Cirque show "KA" and The Phantom of The Opera...double thumbs-up for both!; Jolibee, Red Ribbon and Goldilocks!! - famous Filipino eateries that I've missed since moving from the motherland over 10 years ago; Cupcakery!; visiting Red Rock Canyon; Christmas with the in-laws; Neon Museum....and much, much more.

Enjoy the photos, and if you know of any other super cool things to do in Vegas and/or the surrounding areas, let me know! :)
