It’s been a while since I’ve used my Nikon D5100 for some good photos. And I’m dumping our Nevada photos here.

Nevada | Las Vegas Getaway
Whenever I mention Las Vegas, many think we go there to gamble and get wasted. I beg to disagree. We can enjoy Vegas without doing that! There are lots to see and to do that you can’t get enough of. I vlogged most of the time but, I was able to produce decent shots.
In-n-Out Burger
I leave Vegas for the meantime.
As we were leaving, I noticed that The Luxor is a little isolated from everybody. Next time I should try riding the Monorail.

| I\’ll see you soon JBWKZ |
 |
| Thereafter, all I see is this…SUN and SAND. |
Upon arriving in Barstow, I finally had the chance to eat In-N-Out Burger! Yipeeee!!!!! (And to think, that this burger joint is just a 5-10 minutes walk from our house >.< )

| The staff especially their \”caps\” reminds me of Good Burger. Hehehehe |

I\’ve been hearing a lot about this burger. I have friends who had tried it here in California and a successful pop-up in Singapore. With a positive feedback, how can I not be jittery the moment I stepped inside the store.
 |
| The fries are great! Deep-fried to perfection. |
 |
| We had the Double-Double burger. |
 |
| There\’s something about the juiciness of the burger. That complements the cheese and the rest of the toppings. According to Jaina, for her it has something to do with \”THE SAUCE.\” |
I was in a food coma for the rest of the trip. I\’m sooooooooooo Hhhhhhaaaaaappppyyyyyyyy!!!!!!
The second time I ate there, I brought along my brother Peng (who was visiting at the time). For him it was just OK. Meaning: \”Above average. Fries in Shake Shack are way better.\” Well that\’s his opinion. It stirred a curiosity about Shake Shack and the yearning of visiting New York City soon.
For now, I\’ll enjoy my In-n-Outs.

Vegas After Sunset
A night in Las Vegas is a delightful treat to your senses. We didn\’t came here for gambling and partying, we just enjoyed the sights. I just hope the next time I\’m here I\’ll be seeing Britney Spears, Jabbawockeez and Cirque du Soleil.

| The Champs replica with Gordon Ramsay\’s imagery. I tell you, his presence in Vegas is everywhere. |
 |
| This Eiffel Tower replica almost looks like the real thing (in picture). |
 |
| It\’s Britney! B*tch! |
 |
| I can see my Prada somewhere out there… |
 |

 |
| I\’m not a big fan of steak. Although if I\’m given one, I will eat it. |
 |
| Jaina\’s plate. This one looks more delicious. |
We are supposed to try Gordon Ramsay\’s steak place, but it\’s too expensive! Maybe with a Registered Nurse\’s salary grade I can afford it the next time hehehehe. I also want to try his burger place that has quite a queue.
My SIL Marilou and I decided to explore more of the The Strip. She discouraged me of exploring alone and insisted of coming with me. Turns out, there are more lurking photo-bombers.
 |
| I was ready for my beauty shot when this two guys came. I asked them to join me. They gladly obliged. |
 |
| Ooops my ride (from the left of the pic) is waiting for me…Chos! |

 |
| The famous Bellagio watershow. A-must-see at The Strip. Guess what?! It\’s free. Just make sure you get a nice place for a good view. |
 |
| At this time, the streets are crowded as ever! We contributed to the congestion hehehe |
 |
| There\’s this group of ladies and gents who suddenly came out of nowhere while where taking photos. Everything happened so fast! Next thing we know Kuya Joel was sandwiched by chika-babes. Just see the look in face, he likes it! Turns out they are staff/crew from a local channel. In one way or another our faces appeared on TV. |
 |
| Weeeeeeeee!!!!! |
As we approached Palazzo and Wynn, we were \”mobbed\” again by partially intoxicated photo-bombers.
 |
| Alright! |
 |
| Parang matagal na kaming magkakakilala! |
 |
| I blend well…tsk tsk tsk Lakas maka-adjust at adapt. Wooohoooo! |
 |
| Kainez! kung kelan mas madami ang barkada malabo ang kuha! Hahahahaha F na F! |
 |
| Ang masasabi ko lang…I\’m freakin\’ cool! |
To continue…we\’re on our way to Palazzo.
The crowd in this area is tamer, everyone seems business-like especially at Wynn.
 |
 |
| Move over Kris Aquino, we now have a mandatory picture in the Palazzo waterfalls. |
I love the decorations!
I was initially rooting for Caesar\’s Palace for \”The Hangover\” experience. I\’m hoping to stay at Wynn the next time around. I found out from Travel Channel\’s Best Buffet in Las Vegas that Wynn buffet has an upscale ambiance and seafood menu that is to die for!
The Venetian at night…
Caught a glimpse of Palazzo.
Whew! I should say we had one helluva night! After all the eating, photo-taking and walking, I declared myself a Pagoda Cold Wave Lotion.

Halloween and Vegas Weekend
I had a very memorable weekend with my in-laws… It was my first time to meet my sister-in-law Jaina and her husband Arnold from Virginia. And my first time celebrating Halloween in California. I\’m still in the process of editing pictures. Another blog post coming up…
