Around the world in Vegas

 If you crave excitement, lights and opulance… look no further but LAS VEGAS! I was in Vegas almost 16 years ago on vacation and I have not forgotten about it since. It was WOW then and still WOW now. It has so much to offer and a MUST SEE place at least once in your lifetime! Yes, it is grand, sometimes too much but hey, you get to see almost the world in Vegas! It comes alive at night and doesn’t stop till you’ve had enough. There are no clocks anywhere  and the lights are on 24/7.  I was there for WPPI and WOW, what an event! Totally life changing and I come home feeling SO inspired! I can’t wait to share more. Check back soon! But first, here are a few shots of what VEGAS is all about.

These were taken with NO FLASH, between ISO 1600- 6400 (yes, amazing) and NO photoshop whatsoever. Every image here is S.O.O.C (Straight out of camera) with the exception of resizing for the web. Enjoy!

 Our hotel: Tropicana (one of the oldest on the strip)

We were fortunate enough to be in a 1800 or so sq ft suite named TOKYO suite. Big enough for 10 people, along with 3 outdoor patios,  3.5 bathrooms, a kitchen, bar and a living room! It must have been a happenin’ place in the 70s! Yes, it was dated but well maintained nonetheless. We felt like royalty in this place and sad to say, it will be torn down next month to make way for new rooms.  DSC_8512
