The Venetian Part 1

To celebrate our 10-year wedding anniversary (a month early) Steve and I decided to fly to Vegas for 1 night, our first outing together alone since having kids! We stayed at the Venetian, a luxurious all-suites hotel. Here's a photo in the lobby.

The hotel clerk wanted to know if we wanted to upgrade to a 1400 square-foot room (basically the size of our house) and offered us a special. We thought, "Why not?" Ten years is a milestone, let's make this something to remember!


The bedroom...


All marble bathroom with jacuzzi tub...


Living room area...


And a close-up. We had two bathrooms and three tv's at our disposal as well. Pretty crazy and over-the-top! It was kind of nice feeling like high-rollers for one night in our life.


Later we had dinner at Bouchon's, Thomas Keller's Vegas restaurant, he runs the famous French Laundry in Napa. I had scallops topped on a rich crab sauce (sorry I can't describe food as good as Rob and Mari!).


Steve had Steak Frites! Delicious! The service was excellent and unpretentious. The decor was very classy.
Later we saw the musical, "The Phantom of the Opera", what a treat! Tomorrow I'll post some more photos from our getaway.
