Instead of going to Rock the Bells this year... I rocked Vegas with visitors this weekend.
Thursday: My brother and his girlfriend flew in. I was excited. My brother, Glenn, who is in fact 7 years younger than I am, and I are like close friends. We tell each other everything. So having him at the house made me feel closer to home.
Gina also arrived today. Went to Revolution Lounge again to get our groove on. The key to having multiple visitors is to coordinate to be at the same place kinda like killing two birds with one stone.
Friday: Nessa and the Bay Area Homies arrive. Had dinner with the girls at Island Sushi. OMG. They have the best garlic chicken in Las Vegas. The closest thing to Mitsuken in Hawaii. yummmy.
Prefunked at home. Then killed a flask and danced all night at Tao at the Venetian. Ghetto much? Hey we're in a recession here!
Saturday: Wet Republic. Warm weather. Cool pool. Small bikinis. Hot bodies. Miami Vices. Kobe Bryants. Drunk laughs.
Later than night, went to XS still extremely tired from the pool but always fun regardless.
And believe it or not. One thing in common we have in this pic..."brothers and sisters!!"
Sunday: Gina and Nessa left back to the Bay early that morning. Went to work without a hangover thank gawd! That night, I finally got to hang out with the Boys .... at XS Night Pool Party.
Monday: After work, Glenn, his girlfriend, Jae, Ej, and I tried "Joe's Crab Shack." I attacked a spicy crab bucket with my bare hands. It killed a huge pot of Dungeness Crab, Alaskan Crab, shrimp, corn on a cob, potatoes, and a whole sausage. It was so good!! But beware, my brother and his girlfriend tried the Joe's Crab Shack in the Bay and was really disappointed so I suggest to have it here in Vegas instead. And to think, we're farther away from the ocean. Hah!
Tuesday: Brother's last day. Did a lot of walking and site seeing on the strip and in Downtown. Living in Vegas and going to the strip is rare. It still amazes me. The lights, the water shows, and the crazy and carefree vibe.
Phew! It was a FUN, crazy, looooong weekend. One thing about Vegas is that everyday can be considered a weekend!! But he great thing about Vegas... being able to see your long distance friends and family without taking a plane!
