2011 Summer Vacation–First Stop Vegas

Right after the Fourth of July Parade, we headed to Vegas for our first stop on our vacation to San Diego.  We stayed in a great hotel that was just off the strip and Casino FREE and smoke FREE!  The room was great.  The kids loved how high up it was and the pool was awesome.This was a rare moment to have Dad swim with them!  He doesn’t hit the pools often!The pool was a little deep for Parker, but with a Mom who will lug him around, who needs to swim?!?!This was the view of the pool from our room window.We took the kids to M&M World and then tried to find dinner.  I will never walk the strip with children again.  It is always bad, but on the 4th of July it was 10 times worse!We got up early to head for Los Angeles, especially to beat the traffic.  These windows were great for watching the fireworks.We loved this hotel and would definitely stay in it again, but will NEVER walk down the strip of Las Vegas again!  Lesson learned!
