I had mixed feelings about what the reality of Vegas was going to be because of what I heard from friends and family, and of course, what I have seen in movies.  I can say that I was surprised to have enjoyed my time there so much.  The over indulgent, crazy, fake, and over the top place, I imagined, was all those things...but the perfect dose of each, making it the perfect place for a vacation for Sid and I. 

I can't wait to for my Vegas trip!  Sid and I are heading there soon and are looking for advice of the best things to do, see, eat, shop and eat!  

Here are a few things on my list but would love suggestions: 
- In-N-Out Burger 
- Valley of Fire 
- Neon Museum 

Those are the main things I have right now.   

Leave a comment with suggestions and I will share my FIRST experience in Vegas as it happens!  

Best,

On Sunday June 1, 2014, 5 people, including your blogger, participated as Team HI CLASS in the Honolulu Ekiden and Music Festival.  What an awesome experience.  During this past year I have become interested in running and have participated in a number of different races.  Nothing major or all that serious yet but I am slowly becoming more experienced.  It is easy for races to quickly become an addiction as there is always such an amazing energy created by being part of such events.  Being surrounded by people with drive, passion and commitment to their health is inspiring and encourages me to continue on my journey to greater health.
