Hard Rock Hotel In Las Vegas


As you might have guessed, I spent the weekend in Las Vegas. I couldn't blog about it before I left because it was a surprise birthday party and the person who it was for sometimes reads my blog. We (10 people) flew out there Friday evening, after having a nice dinner for the birthday girl here in town with everyone. In Vegas, we stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel, and in fact spent most of our time there. The only other casino we ventured to was The Mirage to see LOVE, the Cirque du Soleil with music by The Beatles. After the show we went back to the hotel to use our free passes to get into Body English, the popular dance club at the Hard Rock Hotel. However, even with VIP passes, we couldn't get passed the guy behind the velvet rope, seriously! Young women had no problem being waved in, but I guess we were too old. So the next night we tried again and succeeded, without slipping the doorman $100 like the people next to us did. The music was loud, drinks expensive and the dance floor crowed. So after 45 minutes we and our fun and left. Everybody turned in semi-early, and I actually woke up feeling fine, ready for the flight home. I guess I didn't party like a rock star. We all had a fun time, but as I always say, now it is time to get back to work.
