My Vegas Must-Do List

March 12, 2020 By Kari 2 Comments

The best breakfast EVER, a show you have to get tickets for, and one of the greatest views in the city! Keep scrolling for my Vegas must-do list! 

vegas must-do list-1Headed to Vegas looking for a few suggestions? Here you go! I find it so difficult to decide in a destination like this with so much to choose from, so I hope this helps.

This was Ryan’s first time to Vegas and we had such a fabulous trip! The dinners, shows and shopping are great but one of the most enjoyable things to do is people watch. Park your butt on a patio with a delicious drink and take in the spectacle!

Vegas Must-Do’s

Must-See Show: Absinthe

  • This show was recommended to us by quite a few people and definitely lived up to the hype. It’s a combination of burlesque, circus, and comedy. It’s pretty raunchy so if you’re easily offended you’ll have to keep a very open mind. 🙂 The show is on the ground of Caesar’s Place under a big beautiful tent and you’ll sit around a circular stage very close to the spectacle.

More info here.

Amazing Breakfast: Eggslut

First off,

Eggslut is a chef’s term, it just essentially refers to somebody who always just says ‘add an egg to it’ when they’re cooking.

Now that we’ve got that covered – I highly recommend stopping in for breakfast here. Ryan and I both had the ‘Slut’ breakfast which is a cage-free coddled egg on top of a smooth potato purée, poached in a glass jar, topped with gray salt and chives, served with slices of baguette. It’s so good I could’ve eaten 12 of them. Next time, perhaps. They also make a really nice freshly-squeezed OJ.

Amazing View: The Strip From The Cosmopolitan Hotel

  • This was the view from our room at The Cosmo but, if you’re not staying here, be sure to just op by one of the pools on-site to get a peek. It’s a spectacular view of the strip, including the fountains at The Bellagio which run every 30 minutes from 3pm to 7pm Monday-Friday and every 15 minutes from 7 pm to midnight. On Sundays the show starts at 11am every 15 minutes until 2:30pm.

Take In A Hockey Game!

  • We had a great time watching The Oilers take on The Golden Knights at The T-Mobile Arena! The vibe inside in arena was electric and the hospitality is fantastic. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the Vegas’ NHL team is fairly new, but the fans are unreal – so pumped to be there and super friendly. Vegas is also getting an NFL team soon too. Another reason to go!

Experience Freemont Street

  • When I heard people talk about “old Vegas” I pictured old run-down casinos with a few people strolling the streets. Apparently, I should have done some research! I’m so glad we took the 20-minute cab ride to Freemont Street. It’s something you absolutely need to work into your itinerary while you’re there! Walk the old strip under a canopied light show, pop into the classic casinos like the Golden Nugget, grab some street vendor eats, take in performances happening everywhere! You can also zipline above the spectacle.

Visit The Mob Museum

  • A few blocks down from Freemont is The Mob Museum. Spend a few hours wandering through the restored 1933 former courthouse and post office building, exploring real stories and actual events of Mob history. We loved it! I would skip the SpeakEasy experience in the basement and just go grab a drink on Freemont.

Late-Night Treat

…or any time of the day! Grab some Cereal Milk Soft Serve from Milk (Cosmo Hotel). Soft serve ice cream with cornflakes, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt on top. To die for!

Life update. ❤ I’ll be keeping this piece of Life update. ❤

I’ll be keeping this piece of art forever. Wyatt painted this for me back in January, when I was isolated with Covid. I taped it up on the wall beside the bed during my stay in our guest room. If you zoom in, you’ll see me in the front with the big baby belly. (Wyatt calls me ‘big belly’ these days!)

Rainbows represent promise, hope, and new beginnings. 

It's been a rough past few weeks for our family, hence my absence online. Thank you so much for your messages of love, concern, and support. They mean so much to us. I know I share a lot with you on here, but I’m not going to get into details this time. Just know we're doing alright. Junebug is great (and kicking and rolling around non-stop!), Wyatt is awesome per usual, and Ryan and I are rock solid.

I had to take a break from work. My main focus has always been (and will
always be) protecting the peace, health, and well-being of our family unit. 

Social media can be a beautiful place where connection and inspiration happens. Unfortunately, it can also foster hurtful and harmful attacks. I’ve learned so much over these past few weeks, and have deeply reflected on my presence and future plans online. I’ll share more soon, but for now, I just wanted to check in, say a sincere thanks, and let you know we’re all good. ❤️

(If you can believe it, I took a video of the exact moment I found out but it disappeared from my files. Poof! Gone.💨 Of all the videos to lose…. 🙈 But very happy to have this photo).
