We are not sure why, but we somehow keep on going back to Vegas. It must be because despite its garishness, it's a great place to party with friends. Easy to get to, easy to stay at, and packed with tons of places to see, people to see, and things to do. Food, drinks, gambling, walking, and just plain sitting by the pool all day long.

Little wonder then that Chris, Lori, Kat and I all decided to get the hell out of Dodge, and spend 4 days in Vegas to celebrate Chris and Lori's 40th birthdays this spring. We did it up, and stayed at the Wynn Encore.

Needless to say, we had a great time!
