A couple of little videos of our time in Vegas

[brightly_lit]

I put together a couple of little videos for you, each a bit over 3 minutes. I didn't take any video at the con proper, since I saw a million people with their phones out, filming every second of the thing, so I figured other people had that covered. (I actually only have an hour of recording time on my video camera, anyway.) So this is just septembers_coda and me sightseeing in and near Vegas.

The first video picks up where the last one left off and shows a bit of our travel to Vegas and then some fun stuff we saw while there. Probably my very favorite part of travel was always the weird little things you see, so there's some of that in here, and the majority of it is a trip we took to a chocolate factory/cactus garden--where we saw the Oscar Mayer Weiner-mobile! Don't know why it happened to pull up there while we were having a car picnic before going into the cactus garden, but I got it on film!

MNY2BRN!!

The second video is of Vegas itself, some other random things we saw there, and the strip, for anyone who's interested. Maybe you've been and want to see what someone else noticed about it, or maybe you never plan to go but want to know where the con is held and what it looks like while you're there (I know I was quite interested in this before I went), but anyway, feel free to come along with us on our adventures:

I'll save the trip-home video for a little later. And now I'm going to try to catch up on alllll the posts I missed while we were gone! Hope you have fun watching. :-)

The cacti look like plants that belong on another planet...the purple ones looked particularly neat! And since I've never been and probably never will go to Vegas, I enjoyed your look at it. I have trouble wrapping my mind around it's existence, I admit.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels like this. Most people seem so crazy about Vegas, but I would never have gone back after my first visit if it weren't the only con in reasonable driving distance. I'm so glad you enjoyed looking at it with us! (It's better if you don't get out of the car--less porn shoved in your face by guys handing out fliers, or at least that's how it was the first time I went.)

Weren't those purple cacti cool?!
