Doctor Who quote

"The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and... bad things. The good things don't always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things or make them unimportant. And we definitely added to his pile of good things."

Day of Delirium #190 - TwiFicMeetUp Las Vegas 2012

With only 12 days until the 2013 TwiFicMeetUp in Chicago (that I will be at), I bring you my post about last year's MeetUp in Vegas.

DangrMomma couldn't have been happier that the first TwiFicMeetUp was going to be in Las Vegas. We love Vegas. From the slots, to the people watching, to the shopping, to the food, to the fun, to the great rooms, we just love Vegas. And the bonus for me was that many of my Twilight friends would be there too!

The MeetUp was at the Monte Carlo and except for some power outage issues at the hotel during check in, we had no problems and thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

Pictures!

The hotel - it was July and pretty darn hot but for the first time in my life I actually said "but it's a dry heat." and meant it. I was probably just happy to be in Vegas with my friends ;)

 
Our views from our room


One of our favorite spots, the Bellagio Conservatory. So beautiful.


These are all flowers!



My favorite part, the carousel - both during the day and at night. Just gorgeous.

 
Mon Ami Gabi in Paris. Gluten Free heaven! 
Why yes that is gluten free homemade bread on my plate. Yum

DangrMomma enjoying our view...

... of the Bellagio fountains that are right across the street from Mon Ami Gabi!

The very appropriate ad right outside the Monte Carlo. It's a vampire with Very Important Pajamas.

The Strip!

Amazing show! Although we saw one of the last shows for it. It was wonderful to hear Elvis's voice like I was at his concert. I would love to see it again.


The following are a few pics from the actual MeetUp. I didn't take too many pictures as I was busy meeting people and listening to all the information. Being I only read and honestly not nearly as much as I used to, I was a little out of my league but I really enjoyed meeting new people.









Then it was our last day in Vegas.

We visited every M life casino in Vegas but of course our favorite might have been Treasure Island. Because thanks to the pirates, we won $50!!!! Woot!

I had to post this picture as it is one of my favorites. It's TravelingMocha and DangrMomma enjoying their last day in Vegas while watching the fountain outside the Monte Carlo. I just find the picture so sweet.

Me and ChyeLin - miss you sweetie

Saying goodbye to the Strip

Bye Las Vegas! Thanks for a great trip!
