An Exciting Trip to the Strip (Shhh!...)

This is Mark, driving down to The Strip
at my request
A few weeks ago...
                            WooHoo!  We can see New York, NY right outside our car windows!
                                                            There's the MGM lion!
                                                        And a giant Coca-Cola bottle
                                                                         Gucci
                                             A giant balloon in front of the Eiffel Tower...ooh!


                                                                   Other fancy buildings
                             Where are we headed with this crowd?  We were just waved in to join them.
                                                               There's even a kilt or two...
                                                         Free food?  We didn't expect this.
                                                      We were just here to get a glimpse of
                                                                 The Donald!
                                   He gave a rip-roarin' speech that had some language shockers in it
                         We didn't fall asleep.  Oh no, we didn't.  I liked his ideas, and Mark did too
      We knew he wouldn't really run for president - but he knows how to get attention paid to his ideas
              I was in the very front row, and, when he came down the stairs, he looked right at me
                                                            as I snapped his picture!

                           Then we used our gift certificates and ate at a wonderful L.V. steakhouse
                                                   A yummy and fun evening out with Mark!
                                                                           Yahoo!

Your food looks so good and the buildings are crazy!! That's cool that you got to see Donald Trump! Las Vegas is like some crazy other-world that has nothing to do with reality. I guess that's why people like it!!

What a fun adventure, and with good food for free, that sounds just perfect! Donald Trump seems like an interesting person, I think he's pretty smart as far as the media and getting his point across through the media. That's so cool you got the picture of him looking straight at you!

I'm so glad you got to go see him! That sounds like such a fun adventure, even if you did have to go to the scary strip! Your food looks delicious. And how crazy that he looked right at you, and that you got such good seats! I would drive Brooks crazy if we lived there because so much is always going on and I'd want to experience it all!
