Exploring the Country, One Flight at a Time
Last November, I went to Las Vegas with my best friend, her mom and aunt, and a few of her friends. It was nothing like I expected. I loved it. My preconceptions about sin city was that it was gristly, shady, probably dirty, and dark. I'm sure that you don't have to go too far … Continue reading Las Vegas Recap
