I spent this weekend with a bunch of friends in Las Vegas. Everyone always says that you need a vacation from your vacation and it is so true! Going to Arkansas to shoot "The River" was my "summer vacation" and even though it was nice to get away for a little while, I was working the whole time. This Vegas trip was last minute and totally relaxing. A friend of mine had a free two night stay at the Flamingo hotel so we drove down at midnight on Friday night and spent all day Saturday and most of the day Sunday.

I went with three people and all of us had other friends in Vegas that we met up with at various times. We walked around the strip, looked around several of the hotels and spent an evening at the Luxor. We tried to get tickets to Spamalot because it was the last weekend that it was playing, but there were no tickets left.

There is a Sonic about 2 miles away from the strip that we went to for dinner on Saturday night. We were trying to find an ATM and we drove past the Sonic. Until I was in Arkansas I had never seen a Sonic and now it is my new favorite thing. Unfortunately there is not one anywhere near where I live.

On the car ride home we hit a lot of traffic. We tried to stop at Calico Ghost Town, but they were closed on Sunday evening. It took about 4 hours to get there with no traffic and about 7.5 hours to get home. On the ride home we played car games and hung out.
