what happens in vegas stays in vegas

on our fourth day together, jen and i took it easy! we started the day with crepes for breakfast at our hotel, and then we spent yet another day by the pool (and thankfully our last, considering the 'heat rash' that began to cover my arms and legs due to the level of intensity from the vegas sun!) at the paris. her mom even came to join us for a while! that afternoon we checked out and headed to our next hotel: the new york new york!

here's our room at the new york new york:

jen and i took our time getting ready that evening, and then had the most amazing dinner at Il Fornaio - an italian restaurant inside the new york. it was fabulous; we split a bottle of wine and had appetizers and just enjoyed our surroundings. following dinner, we headed over to 'the bar at times square' which was a dueling piano bar! we met up with three of jen's friends there, and enjoyed about an hour of good music and good drinks.

later that evening, jen and i had 10:30pm tickets to see Zumanity; 'the sensual side of Cirque de Soleil.' it was definitely different!



jen with a character from the show - awkward!


we didn't do much after the show, as it was so late! we did manage to swing by this larger than life slot machine =)
