More Photos from Disneyland, California

Do you know how big is Disneyland, California? It is huge! We already spent there two days but still we were not able to go all around Disneyland. I mean considering the many rides, shows and entertainment in Disneyland, two days of spending there is not enough. I would suggest probably a week is enough.

You also have a good exercise there because you need to walk and walk all the time. It is good for burning fat and calories. If I can only do that everyday, I guess I don't need Anoretix to lose extra pounds. If you have the chance to visit US, don't miss the fun in Disneyland!

Disneyland Escapades..Very Entertaining!

How can you forget a very unforgettable and enjoyable moment in one of the world's most famous entertainment place, the Disneyland in California. What are left from me with all that experience in Disneyland are pictures and memories that I can always keep for the rest of my life. It was an amazing experience!

me in Paradise Pier, Disneyland in California..great experience!

Shopping in Vegas is Great

Take a pose first before shopping in Outlet Las Vegas! This photo was taken last May 2008 in front of Las Vegas Outlet center. I love shopping in Vegas. I bought some stuffs as presents to myself, to my dear husband, my family and some friends. I saw most of the time that most shops I have been in Las Vegas use barcode scanner. I guess this is an easy way for checking-out of csutomers. How I wish I will be backed to Las Vegas next time. I'll let you know once I'll be there again! have a great day!

I just even see this photo now after browsing it in my pictures file. I got thousands of photos from Vegas that I can't remember all unless I start looking for it. Who is that person anyway? It has a face but not so clear..congrats to all winners in Las Vegas! at least I have a lot of pictures as remembrance!

Unforgettable Bad Experience in MC Donald in Las Vegas

I can't forget that night as we had a bad experience in one of MC Donald's restaurant in Las Vegas. It was around 2am in the morning as we parked the bad car near MC Donald. We went walking to MC Donald's drive way to buy for food. The saleslady said that they can't sell us food because we don't have a car. We also talked to their supervisor but she said the same. The bad car of my sister had an oil leak at that time and don't run anymore. We told the MC Donald crews that our car was parked on the side of their building but still they won't sell us food. That was a very disappointing and unfriendly customer service from MC Donald. I never forget that bad experience with MC Donald. Well, I guess I don't need to take safe appetite suppressants anymore when I don't eat food from MC Donald. MC Donald's food are junks anyway! I just hope that you will have a better customer service next time!

Excalibur Hotel, The Fantasy Hotel in Las Vegas

I want to call Excalibur Hotel in Las Vegas as Fantasy Hotel. See how it looks? It seems that you are in a wonderland if you see this hotel especially the light effects in the night. How I love to have an overnight in this hotel in the future. At least, I saw it in person. It is so fantastic even the inside part. just sharing this photo for now!

Wish To Go Camping in Lake Mead, Las Vegas

This photo was taken in Lake Mead in Las Vegas, Nevada. Don't you know that Lake Mead is the largest reservoir in the United States? If I am not mistaken, Lake Mead is a man-made lake which was named after Elwood Mead. As we where passing this lake, I was also amazed by its beauty as you can also see in the photo.

A lot of locals and visitors of Las Vegas go to Lake Mead for recreation like boating, fishing, water skiing, camping and simply relaxing under the sun. I'm not so sure if it is the same as rv parks. I wish to go back to this place and probably go fishing or camping. Next time again!

I'm Walking at Fremont Street in Las Vegas

It was truly a Fremont Experience! During my vacation in Las Vegas, I have been to Fremont Street for around four times. This photo here was the first time I went there. This is one of the busiest street in Las Vegas where people always go party. The first time I was there, there was a live band which you can watch for free. A lot of people especially during the night also keeps this street very busy! It was an amazing experience!

A Visit To Hollywood in Los Angeles, California

I really don't expect that I can visit Hollywood in Los Angeles, California. Special thanks to my sister and her hubby for the great vacation in the US last year. We also had a tour in Universal Studio where the famous films are being shoot.

It was an amazing experience seeing the so-called city of the stars and the famous. We also did a lot of walking especially in Universal Studios where we enjoyed seeing some shows. Don't you know that the founder of the Universal is a German Jewish guy. His name is Carl Laemmle, from Laupheim who settled in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. I guess you better surf the net about him for more stories about Universal Studios. Anyway, if I can probably go walking everyday in Hollywood I might loss some kilos or else I need to find a liporexall reviews to know if it is really effective. I miss our escapades in Hollywood! have a nice day to all!

Beautiful Carpets in Caesars Palace Hotel , Las Vegas

Most hotels in Las Vegas have carpets especially in their gaming and entertainment areas. That is what I noticed in most hotels that I visited in Las Vegas. I even got static all the time especially when I walked on these rugs. The carpets in Caesars Palace Hotel are the ones that caught my attention. Look at this photo I got here, that was taken in Caesars Palace. I love its color too. I just wonder how many times in a day or week they clean or vacuum the area rugs. It seems that it looks clean and fresh all the time! Don't forget to notice these simple things when you have the chance to visit Las Vegas! have a great evening! See you again tomorrow!

Have a Meaningful Easter!

Have a Blessed and Meaningful Easter to All!
Glitter Graphics

The joyful news that He is risen does not change the contemporary world. Still before us lie work, discipline, sacrifice. But the fact of Easter gives us the spiritual power to do the work, accept the discipline, and make the sacrifice.

I Love Shopping in Las Vegas

The biggest shopping I ever did was during my vacation in Las Vegas last year. It was almost a year now that I spent a two months vacation in the United States. I spent most of my time in Las Vegas because my dear sistah is currently living there. I also bought in Vegas the most expensive bag I had. It is a coach bag. I am not really into branded clothings or bags but when I have some extra money for that I also buy it. I always thought giving a gift or present to myself for all the hard work I did..wink!! I also shop for sporty pants but not that much about sports gifts. I bought some presence for my good friends here in Europe and I guess they were happy about it. I love to go shopping and I say Las Vegas is one of the good place to go shopping and have fun which is the best thing above all!!

we did shopping in Forum Shop in Caesars Palace Las Vegas...it's Victoria Secret's stuffs!! with my dear cousin and beloved sistah!

Walking at Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas

I have been in Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas for I guess around five times. We also always passed this hotel everytime we go to Las Vegas strip. Don't you know that the only light that you can see in the space is the one that is coming from Luxor? amazing! My sister in Las Vegas told me about it. As you can see in the photo, I am truly enjoying my escapades in Las Vegas! I also browse the net to find info about Luxor's spotlight...keep reading!
that's me having fun in Luxor, Las Vegas

The Spotlight in Luxor

The tip of the pyramid contains a fixed-position spotlight that points directly upward – it is the brightest beam in the world, and is visible from anywhere in the Las Vegas valley at night, and can be seen at flight level from above Los Angeles, California, over 275 miles (440 km) away. At ground level, on clear nights, the beam could also be seen as far south as Laughlin and even as far north as Mesquite or Beatty. It is directly straight ahead on US-93 in Arizona, north of Kingman, before reaching the Hoover Dam. In the spring, the bright light attracts huge numbers of moths into the light beam, creating a phenomenon that has been likened to snow. Light is generated using 39 Xenon lamps of 7 kilowatts each. The hourly cost, including lamps, electricity, and repairs, is US$51 — roughly two weeks' worth of electricity for the average American household. The total light output is rated at 41.5 gigacandela, or 30.2 billion lumens. Hotel engineers, as well as the hotel's own website also claim that the light can be observed from space.

Have you seen the Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas?

Have you seen the Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas? Stratosphere Las Vegas is a tower and hotel at the same time with games and entertainment. You know what I mean when I say games right? It is located in Las Vegas Strip in Las Vegas Nevada. Sad to say, I was not able to go at the top of the tower. I just reserve it for my next Las Vegas escapades...wink! I don't know if it is also use as cell towers. Any idea out there? You want to know what you can see on top of the tower? My sister who lives in Las Vegas told me that there are three thrill rides located in the tower, namely Big Shot, Insanity the Ride and the Xscream. Stratosphere tower has two observation decks in which my sister had a photo of these as they went up to the tower. A revolving restaurant is also located in the tower as mentioned by my brother-in-law during my vacation in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas is truly a place to have fun and simply enjoy. If I have to ask you whether you want to ride in those thrill rides in the Stratosphere, are you going to ride in it? Want to know about my answer? I am not really afraid of rides. Since I am having a motion sickness, I guess I can't ride on those thrill rides. Of course I can go up on the Stratosphere Tower for looking around Las Vegas since I am not really afraid of heights. I think so! Here is a photo which I took personally of the Stratosphere Tower!

photo I took of the Stratosphere Las Vegas with its tower while we were driving on the motorway in Las Vegas.

Excalibur Hotel, The Fairytale Castle Hotel in Las Vegas

This is how I call Excalibur Hotel in Las Vegas, "The Fairytale Castle Hotel". Look how it looks like in the photo I got here. Isn't it a dream if you stay in this hotel. It seems that you are also staying in a castle! I was only there for sightseeing. very lovely hotel! read more below for more information.
that's me during my US trip last year..background is the Excalibur Hotel

The Excalibur Hotel is a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, in the United States. It is owned and operated by MGM Mirage.

Excalibur, named for the mythical sword of King Arthur, uses the Arthurian theme in several ways. Its facade is a stylized image of a castle. Until 2007, a wizard-like figure representing Merlin looked out from a high turret. The style of the hotel is heavily based on the castle in Carcassone, France.

Excalibur is situated at the Tropicana - Las Vegas Boulevard intersection. The intersection is so busy that pedestrians are not allowed to cross at street level. Instead, Excalibur is linked by overhead pedestrian bridges to its neighboring casinos to the north (the New York-New York, across Tropicana Avenue) and to the east (the Tropicana, across the Strip). There is also a free tram that connects Excalibur to its sister MGM Mirage properties to the south, the Luxor and Mandalay Bay. As of 2007, Excalibur has remodeled 2000 of their guest rooms to feature contemporary furnishings and state-of-the-art plasma-screen TV's. source: http://en.wikipedia.org
