After meeting the bride to be and other hens at Caesars Palace Hotel we started our weeks holiday in Vegas! The first night happened to be my birthday and we began with a classy meal at Mr.Chow. The food was delicious and despite our tiredness from all the travelling the night continued into the small hours for a few of us (start as you mean to go on!)

We dressed up as Power Rangers to have a go on the Sand Buggy’s in the desert. This was brilliant, both Vicky and Louise had a go at driving whilst Lauren and I were backseat passengers. The driving was harder than it looked over the soft sand but the girls did a great job!

Whilst exploring Downtown we had a go on the Zipwire which was a laugh a minute getting the harness on when I was wearing a dress! Once all strapped up it was over pretty quickly but was certainly an experience!

When in Vegas we had to try our luck on the slots and roulette (the only things we really knew what to do on) and luckily for us we won on the number 26, Lauren & Dans wedding date (clearly meant to be!)

The five of us had a romantic ride on the gondolas at the Venetian which was a must! Vicky and I also had a go at one of the Oxygen Bars to give ourselves a little boost before Alison joined us for the hair raising rides at the top of the Stratosphere!

We managed to get tickets to see none other than Britney Spears! The classic hits were fab and we sang our hearts out but we were not so sure about some of the unknown ones! A few of us also went to see a Cirque du Soleil show called Zumanity which was hosted at the New York New York hotel. The show was hilarious, a mixture of adult humour and acrobatics that had the whole audience oohing and ahhing!

For the last few days we were lucky enough to stay with Laurens Aunt, Jo, who lives not far from the strip. She was very kind as her house was invaded by five girls with far too much stuff in tow! We spent some time with their family, Lisa, Stephen and the man of the holiday little Charlie (Laurens little cousin!)

I think anyone who has visited Las Vegas would agree it’s unlike anywhere else in the world! Literally anything goes and it’s a lot of fun people watching! The trip went so smoothly because Louise had organised the group (not an easy task!) and Lauren was a good sport about the silly bits we made her wear!
