Vegas on thanksgiving

We went to Vegas with janet & jimmy during thanksgiving and here are some pictures.

the gloomy vegas weather- on the day we arrived.
our hotel room. we stayed at the Mandalay bay hotel because they have some deals. Very nice hotel...

Our lunch, we settled for a chinese restaurant at the mandalay bay.
their version of chicken lettuce wrap... doesn't look so appetizing but john gobbled down the whole thing, i guess it's not that bad.
we had fried rice (duh... what else when john goes to a chinese restaurant ;)), bbq pork ribs, chicken & beef chow fun

And for dinner, we went to a burger bar at the Rio Hotel. Yep, we wandered off the strip to somewhere where gambling is cheaper.
we sat at the bar to avoid waiting in lineshredded onion rings... so good!
there was a performance going on at the hotel- some sexy gals & guys dancing, whatelse?!
aligator bar in the casino area at the Rio hotel

We gambled the night away.... lost some money! :( We called the night early because we had a mission the next day... black friday shopping. We woke up at 4 am and headed to Wal Mart, Office Depot and couple other places. Janet had this whole thing planned... we all went separate ways so we don't waste time. You know you are in good hands when you go shopping for deals with Janet. If she said it's cheap... then it's cheap! :) So we all went home with some pretty good deals.

john stood in line infront of Office Depot
look at the line! not too bad... i think we were in the top 10 in line.
i was so pooped after the shopping. we all went back to bed :))))) when u are on vacation, you can sleep anytime you want ;)
haha... this is so cute!
we used this picture for our christmas cards

jimmy had a "Grumpy" jacket on... he should be wearing "happy"

We had seafood buffet for dinner.... it was so good! would definitely go again if we go to vegas again






vegas is not vegas if you don't stop by the bellagio water fountain..... highlight of the trip! my favorite!

on the way home....
