We flew off into the sun set. It was beautiful. Have you ever watched the sun setting from an airplane? It looks like the whole sky is on fire!!!
We had a straight through flight. It took 5 hours. Whittled away the time by playing trivia. We flew on SONG. You have your very own entertainment center infront of you. Very cool.
Got to the airport. There was a limo driver holding up a sign that said "Albright wedding" so we took a limo to the hotel room courtsey of my brother and his girlfriend. (which reminds me, I need to call him and thank him.)
Met up with Winterstoirm and Wulflinde in the casino of Tuscany. (That is the hotel we stayed at.) Nyssa_Ngoti had flown with us. We all got into another limo and went over to Hooters hotel and casino for some hot wings. My parents left to go get some sleep. We all decided to go back to the hotel to play around. Mind you it is now about 2am Las Vegas time. *yawn*
We took a taxi back. At a red light Nyssa_Ngoti smiled at a van full of boys and next thing we knew, they were pulling down their pants and mooning us!!! Fab-boo!!!!
Got to Tuscany and the boys ran off to play the slot machines. Us girls went over for a drink at the bar. That didn't last long though because everyone was exhausted!!! STOP! Bed time.

Gothichappiness and I got up early. We went downstairs to get a cab. None were in sight. This man next to us said he would share a limo with us. We said OK. He was really nice. He was in town for a shoe convention. The limo dropped us off at Treasure Islanhd where we took another limo to the court house to get our paperwork filled out.
We hooked back up with all our friends and took the monorail to The Hilton: Star Trek Experience. Ate at Quarks bar and grill. They have fantastic food and drinks there. Nyssa and I took off afterwards because I had a nail appointment.
Gothichappiness' parents showed up. Everyone went to Ceasars Palace to watch the free Fire and Ice show. Then we ran over to Treasure Island to watch Sirens. Afterwards, we went to The Stratosphere. Gothichappiness' dad bought all of us tickets for a show called BITE. BITE is an erotic and sensual topless review based on deliciously evil vampires with a simple story line of sin, sex and seduction. The show centers around the Lord Vampire and his search for the perfect female specimen that he will seduce and make the queen of the night. Aiding the Lord is his coven of sultry and nimble dancers, the Erotic Angels of Rock. Their story will be told through the classic rock songs of the 1970’s, 1980’s and 1990’s. Throughout the show, audience members will be chosen to become part of the erotic adventure. It was bed time after that.

I got up early and took a taxi over to Treasure Island to get my hair and make-up done. My parents showed up. Mom helped me get into my dress. Wulflinde helped with the bussels. They were all missed matched for some reason. She got it straightened out though. THANK YOU!!!!
The wedding corrodinator took me through the entire casino all done up like that. Everyone turned around and smiled and said "Congrats" and stuff. It was kind of neat. I was taken aboard the pirate ship. I walked down the aisle to Tori Amos ~ A Sort of Fairytale and left to VNV Nation's ~ Beloved. I noticed that there were people in the crowd taking pictures of us and video taping my entire wedding. These people had no farking clue who we were. Afterwards, we heard them ask "When is the next show?" LMAO. It was a trip.
The whole wedding party (that makes 9 of us) went back to Quarks for dinner. We were loud. Gothichappiness asked if we were being too loud and the waiter said "Yes, but you are spending good money so we aren't going to do anything about it." Poor Nyssa had to help me go to the restroom. THANK YOU!!!! (I was still wearing my wedding dress and the rest of the wedding party was dressed up as pirates.) She came back to the table and told GH "I've been up your brides wedding gown before you have." heh. My dad paid for the entire dinner which came out around $500.00. (I peaked. OOPS!!!)
GH and I went back to our room. We relaxed and he helped me out of the dress. When I was getting ready for the wedding, I looked like wonderwoman. I swear I did. Afterwards, I put on jeans and a shirt, I looked like Peg Bundy from Married with Children. Of course GH was doing a pretty good impression of Al Bundy as well. hee hee hee
For dinner, we all went to the Italian place inside of The Tuscany. The food was amazing. They also gave all the girls a carnation and a chocolate covered strawberry. Nummy!!! GH got the bill for that one.
We went back to our room and the kids ran off to ride the roller coaster at New York New York. After that, Nyssa_Ngoti flew home. She had a midnight flight out of there.

Got up to meet Winterstoirm and Wulflinde in teh loby to say good-bye. They had an early flight out. My parents and GH's parents followed us to look at the wedding photo's. GH bought the entire package which includes giving us the copy right for the photo's. w00t!!! We all had dinner at The Cantina inside of The Tuscany. My dad picked up that bill. We tried to get it. He said he was just happy that GH bought the wedding picture's and that he didn't have to. hahahahahahahha. We slept more after that. Spent most of this day sleeping.

The rents and us got together and ran the strip. We went all the way down to Mandalay Bay. GH's dad bought us all tickets to see Shark Reef. He bought nine tickets forgetting that the other three went home. Luckily they let him turn in the three we couldn't use. I have pictures of the fish if you'd like to see them, just let me know. :)
Then we walked through The Luxor and Excalibur. GH and I bought tickets at MGM Grand for a show called La Femme The show is pronounced: "La Fahm" (Fahm is pronounced like aah!)
"La Femme" is a first for America and Las Vegas, a show direct from one of the hottest nightspots in the world, the original Crazy Horse in Paris, famous for its productions celebrating beautiful woman and the art of the nude since 1951.
"La Femme" uses a combination of light effects, film, and projections to create dramatic effects: some subtle, some humorous and all sensual.
All 12 of the international collection of dancers are members of the original Crazy Horse dance troupe. La Femme dancers are trained in ballet and perfectly integrate into sensuous choreography as their bodies are bathed in colored and textured lighting designs.

GH's parents went to Texas via early morning flight. When I woke up and poked my head outside the door, there was a red carnation infront of our door. How sweet. We hung out with my parents most of the day. Running around shopping. We went back to the hotel and did some gambling. I played the slots and roulett. It was fun. We got tickets to see Zumanity. ZUMANITY, a provocative, cabaret-style production with a Cirque du Soleil® twist. The adult-themed, 90-minute production is unveiled at New York-New York Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. That was really cool. My parents left late that night.

Wowzers!!! Does Las Vegas ever get packed on the weekends!!! I felt like a sardine. I deffinately liked it better during the week. Holy free holies!!! Anywho, we checked out and gave the porter our luguage. Our flight out was at 11:30pm. We gambled at The Tuscany. Then we went to see Sigfried and Roy's Secrete Garden. KITTIES!!!! And we saw the dolphins. I have picture's of that too if you are interested.
We tried to catch the show at T.I. but it started rainning and the show was canceled. We walked over to the mall for a minute then took a cab to MGM Grand. The lions were sleeping on top of the glass so you could go in there and look up to see a 200 pound lion right above you!!! It was so cool!!!!
We went back to the Tuscany and hung out at the Piazza Lounge for a bit. Afterwards, we took a limo to the airport and flew home. :) w00t!!!!
