Las Vegas 4th
It's the 4th of July, and I'm in Las Vegas with my sister Katie, Justin, Julia, Rachel, Emily, Michael, Melanie and Nate. We are staying at Turnberry Place, a luxury condo on the 12th floor, courtesy of Craig and Sonja Brooksby.
Last night a few of us went to see the new Phantom: A Las Vegas Spectacular musical at the Venitian. It was very impressive, i've never seen better sets for a musical. The effects were great, too, especially the fireworks above the rising facade of the Paris Opera House.
This morning we had breakfast at Hash House A Go Go, a fun and very filling restaurant. I reccommend the french toast. On the way back to the condo we stopped at the Sahara and rode Speed the Ride roller coaster. Now we're back relaxing until we go back out tonight.
