My post 'Monday Day 2 in Vegas' was incomplete - added to that we also had to venture into the city to purchase our Marriage Licence. We had decided what a nice place to be married - in Vegas and now had to get a move on to organise everything. I had applied for the licence online a few weeks prior and had received a reference number which made the process so simple. We showed our passports, gave divorce dates and we were out of there in about 5 minutes and were free to marry anytime from then on. We decided the beautiful chapel at The Luxor would be a nice venue...just beautiful...small but beautiful. So before lunch we had that booked, Darren's tie and my shoes purchased and we were almost there. I had already bought my dress at Macys when we were in San Francisco.
Tuesday began after a small sleep-in and at 11am I had my hair cut and styled (trial for Wednesday) and it was really lovely - just how I would normally wear it only a little more blow dried. It would be perfect. The 'beauty spas' in these hotels/casinos are incredible. They go forever and are something you would see in a Cleopatra movie. Absolutely stunning and massive WOW factor.
We were happy just to do a lot of walking this day - checking out our casino out and taking the free trains from one to the other. Lunch time again and here in Vegas, like San Francisco, it was very difficult to find a really nice red (along with coffee!). Most, if not all the bars, only have a very ordinary one called Louis Martini. Yes, it sounds pretty flash, but very very ordinary. Well eventually we found a lovely little steak house tucked away near the main entrance that had an awesome wine list - Napa and Sonoma Valley wines, we were to learn, were the way to go. Unfortunately our time in San Fran. was mainly for Darren's work so we didn't get to take a tour up to these famous valleys. Next time....
