Hello, my bucket list, friends! We are now in September, but I had a pretty amazing summer. Now that things are slowing down, I’m ready to write blog posts about my summer 2025 adventures! I’m very excited to write this post about some of my Las Vegas adventures. Without any more introduction, let’s get to it!
June 9th – This was the day that my mom and I began our Las Vegas vacation. At the airport, before getting on the plane, I got a magazine that had some fun food art on the cover. The short flight went well. Our hotel for this trip was the Linq. I had walked through this hotel before, but this was my first time staying there. I thought that the room had a fun and artsy feel to it. I liked that check-in was super easy on the kiosk. After getting settled. We went out to eat at the boss cafe. The food was really good. I’m glad that this place was inside our hotel . After eating we walked to a nearby candy store. I also loved how close this place was. I got to go to it more than once during this trip. On this night, I bought a few Las Vegas themed items from the candy store, including a cute tin of mints. I also got to cross off a bucket list item on this day when we went to the Minus 5 ice bar. This ice bar was a very fun place to take pictures. There were a bunch of different themed areas, and it was a great escape from the Las Vegas heat. My favorite part was getting to drink out of a cup that was made out of ice. After our ice bar experience, we went and saw the Bellagio fountain show. This show is iconic and something that I highly recommend doing while you are in Las Vegas. It is free and it is fun to take pictures and videos of. After the fountain show, we went to the Bellagio conservatory. This free attraction is an amazing work of art that changes with the seasons. I loved the flamingos and the zebras. Back at our hotel, I bought a magnet that had the High Roller Wheel on it. It was a wonderful first day of vacation.
June 10th – This was our first full day of vacation, and we had some fun things planned. When we were in Las Vegas in 2023, we loved doing the flyover ride, so we decided to do that again this time. We ended up doing three different rides, and they were all amazing. I highly recommend doing this ride at least once. I believe that there were four different rides when we were there. They also have a fun gift shop so I got a few things there. Next to the flyover ride is one of my favorite stores in Las Vegas. It is called the ABC store, and it has a great selection of souvenirs and other items. I love the hat that I got there. I also got a plush animal that comes with a blanket, some post cards, a rubber duck, and a shirt. After doing the flyover ride three times and shopping at the ABC store, we went to lunch at Olive Garden. When we went back to the hotel we went in the pool. It was a lot of fun. I love staying at hotels that have pools . This pool also had a DJ, and drinks were available it was still pretty lowkey and chill. After the pool, my next activity was to go and cross off a bucket list item that had been on my list for a long time. There was a tattoo shop in our hotel so I went there and I got a tattoo of a starfish. I had been wanting to get this for a long time. I got a starfish that had a fun pattern of circles and dots. I also got another bucket list tattoo because I had Philippians 4:13 written above the starfish. I was so happy with the way this tattoo turned out. After getting my tattoo, my mom and I went on The High Roller Wheel. I can not recommend the High Roller Wheel enough. I went on the High Roller Wheel of the first time back in 2023, and I loved it, but this time, I wanted to ride it at night so I could see all the city lights. The views from the high roller wheel are simply amazing. I got some wonderful pictures of all of the city lights below. The capsule that you ride in is a good size, and you can move around to different windows. I loved getting to see the Las Vegas Sphere with different designs on it. The beach ball was my favorite. After an amazing ride on the High Roller Wheel, I got a deck of playing cards from the Linq at the gift shop. it was a day full of adventure. I got some pizza to end the day on a high note . It was a really wonderful day.
