Down to a few days now :)
This month has flown by and I'm happy (and nervous) to post that I'm only a few days from leaving! I don't have anything ready for the trip of course, but excited nonetheless. :)
I finally broke down and booked the Mandalay Bay for my one night in Vegas. The price was ok (for a Saturday night) and although it's not in the middle of things I think it will work out great. I'm going to dig through my store bins and pack a bag of toy donations to take with me. I wish I had planned ahead and ordered some specific things but I can always send packages later.
I finished reading the book I had ordered, Best Friends: The True Story of the World's Most Beloved Animal Sanctuary. If you haven't read it then definitely make it a point to...it's amazing. It's a fast and easy read too, I finished it in one night. (plus I couldn't put it down once I started) Only four more days!!!
It's ironic you are going to spend a night in Vegas (*thinks, stereotypical images - money, gambling, greed, consumerism*) and then you are off to do something really kind and thoughtful with other like minded people.

However, I am taking the longer route back from BF through Zion Park and don't want to do this the day I'm due to fly back. It's too much for me alone and I don't want to be rushed worrying about making a flight.
Staying at the hotel in Vegas works out better for me plus it's right outside the airport property to make for an easy transport on Sunday.

Since Vegas is the city you have to fly in and out of to reach BF, it seems obvious as to why you'd be staying there :) I have never been to Vegas either (or BF for that matter) and I hope you have loads of fun!

I love Vegas and BF. :) Make sure you check out the Shark Reef since you're staying at Mandalay Bay.
