We spent the first two day of our spring break in Las Vegas. One of the most alive and enjoyable cities I have been to.

We stayed at the MGM Grand hotel on the strip. It was very nice and exciting. There was a casino and plenty of restaurants in the hotel. The gigantic pool area contained numerous pools and a lazy river. I definitely recommend the hotel if you plan on staying in Vegas.

We explored the hotel for a bit before we visited the STRAT. The STRAT is another hotel towards the northern end of the strip. The STRAT has a tall structure with a few different thrill rides at the top. We visited the top of the tall building and saw the amazing view of Las Vegas. Sadly the thrill rides closed due to weather when we were there.

We had a dinner reservation at a highly rated restaurant called Honey Salt. The dishes at this place were outstanding and the decorations and vibe of the place was perfect. They had all sorts of stuff on their menu. The dishes were pretty big servings too, so if you visit Honey Salt, expect to bring some food home.

After dinner we walked around the strip for a bit, and stopped at the Bellagio to see the water show. The water show was a memorable experience. They had a different song play every show and the water would shoot up to the beat.

Later into the night we visited the Paris hotel which was my personal favorite. The inside looked like you were outside. It had a casino and trees and a sky as the ceiling. It was beautiful inside and was an incredible sight to see.

By that time it was late so we headed back to the MGM Grand. The next morning we drove out to red rock canyon to do a hike. It was gorgeous scenery and a nice hike.
