Monday 2nd May 2011.

Well today is Bronte's birthday and we are going to take it easy. Started off with a sleep in and then a trip to Walmart. We wanted to have Quiznos for lunch and it took us about half an hour to find one. Once we did the food was awesome, we had not had Quiznos this trip at all yet. We then headed for the Stratosphere and paid to go up to the observation level. Cassidy and Bronte also paid for a ride on Insanity which is an arm that hangs out over the side of the tower which is over 900 feet from the ground and then it spins around putting you at a 70 degree tilt. We took a few photos from the top of the tower as you get the best view of Downtown LV and the strip. We then went south to some of the outlet shopping stores not too far from the airport. Had a walk around there for a while and bought a pair of Crocs for Rosalie. We also purchased a ticket to a restaurant called Embers which is at Imperial Palace. We paid $3 each to get 50% off the prices of all main meals. The food was really good. We then went out onto the strip and watched the Bellagio fountain for 3 or 4 times and had a bit of a walk around, by that time it was time to head back to the motel.

Tomorrow we are going to take it easy as well and probably go to some more shops. We are also planning on seeing Chris Angel the illusionist, he is showing at the Luxor and as we are staying here we can get cheap tickets.
