1. We stayed at the Paris Hotel, which had a huge ground area. It was bigger than any other ground I have ever seen in a hotel. Though that is to be expected for a hotel in Vegas.

But since we were staying there, we got a discount for a trip to the top of the Eiffel Tower they had there. We got a great view of the city from there. It also had a restaurant in it, but we didn't eat there.

2. There were people everywhere, all the time. It was one of the busiest places I have ever seen, even more so than Spring Break at my job. It was nuts!

3. We took a tour out to see Hoover Dam and Lead Mead. We were taken about 500 feet underground to see the tunnels that were used while the dam was in construction, plus we learned a lot about the history of the dam and Lake Mead. It was definitely the highlight of the trip for my Dad, as seeing the dam was one of the main reasons he wanted to go to Vegas in the first place.

4. We got to ride the Monorail Train and see most of its locations. Many of them simply led to other hotels that had casinos. And honestly, if you have seen one casino, you've basically seen them all.

But the main reason we took it was to get to the Stratosphere, one of the hotels that has a huge tower has is roughly 108 stories high. We went to the top and saw even more amazing views of the city. We also learned that there are three amusement rides on the top of the Stratosphere, which was something that we weren't expecting. I even rode one of them while my Dad and I were up there. It was a lot of fun.

5. Now for my highlight of the trip, and that was jumping off of the Stratosphere. Yep, this hotel has a Sky Jump where you jump off of floor 108 of the Stratosphere and plunge 855 feet to the ground below. Normally, I wouldn't do something like this. But since I was on vacation and I really wanted to do something memorable, I decide to embrace the overused quote from Shia LeBeouf and 'just do it.' So I made the jump, and it actually wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. It is truly something I will never forget doing.

6. My Dad and I actually didn't gamble at all while we were there. At night, my Dad just did the things he does at home sometimes. As for me, I wondered my hotel lobby and the streets of Las Vegas trying to hatch eggs and find Pokemon for Pokemon Go on my iPhone. I seriously probably spent at least 6 to 7 hours over my four day trip in Vegas trying to find Pokemon and hatch eggs. I even got the 'Walking 10 KM' achievement for the game, and I didn't even download it to my phone until a day before I left for my trip! Its definitely a game that I will continue to play, because I do want to catch them all!
