Continuing the overdue update of our recent summer travels.<\/p>\n

Mmmm… let see. I’ve recapped about Phoenix<\/a>, Lake Pleasant<\/a>, Los Angeles<\/a> and Grand Canyon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Phew! That’s a lot of travelling.\u00a0So now, I want to chat about Las Vegas. It was a short, less than 24 hour trip.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Everything was going as per plan until I realized I forgot to pack my zoom lens. Yikes!<\/p>\n

I only had a macro\/prime lens. A 50mm lens to be precise. Unfortunately, there’s no way I could have taken wide-angle shots at all.<\/p>\n

Double yikes!<\/p>\n

Obviously I was not upset at all. I mean, who goes to Las Vegas just to take photos?! That would be absolutely ridiculous.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ok, fine. I wanted to take photos oh so badly and was not interested in slots. Ha!<\/p>\n

To cut the story short — these are the only photos that was deemed suitable enough to preview on the blog. The rest is history.<\/p>\n

Lesson learnt in a very hard way — never, ever leave your house without a zoom lens.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyways, there was so much to see and very little time to play slots. So we did what normal people would do, otherwise.<\/p>\n

After a short and sweet sight-seeing, we checked into a very cozy hotel, thanks to a wonderful suite upgrade — I proceeded to soak in a whirlpool tub while the Husband strolled into the casino to play slots.<\/p>\n

We are a cool couple, just like that \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Don’t worry, we aren’t broke. And we are not millionaires either.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m sure many who has been to Vegas have a more vivid experience in comparison — but I’m also a believer that Vegas is not for everyone \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Off to cross “Vegas” from our bucket list. Only time will tell when and where we would be going next!<\/p>\n

Have you been to Vegas before? How was it?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
