Miss Molly's Ameican Adventure- Viva Las Vegas Weekender


http://www.vivalasvegas.net/

There is only 7 weeks left for Sam and I until we are jetting off to the land of the free. I have been busy organising our accommodation, car hire and researching places to go and things to do, but the first thing on our agenda in attending Viva Las Vegas for the very first time! I am so excited to be going. We got in early and booked a room at The Orleans about a year ago- I heard you’re not doing Viva right unless you are staying where all the action is!

One of the things I am looking forward to the most is meeting people. So if there are any people out there who read my blog and recognise my face at Viva, please come and say hello- I would love to meet you!
Of course I am excited for the music too. I think JD McPherson will be my highlight. All of my girlfriends are very jealous  of me..hehe. I also get to see Big Sandy twice in one month, in two different countries! He is headlining Kustom Kulture 10, here in Adelaide, and is also playing a few spots around Melbourne and Brisbane next month. The pool party looks like a whole lot of fun, and I can't wait to get my very own Boot! Sam is looking forward to the car show, and seeing the Ventures will be a treat too.

So...who else is going? Have you got any tips for this VLV virgin? I would love to hear what you are looking forward to.

Sydney in September

Here are a few snaps from our trip to Sydney after the wedding...


Walking to the airport from our house

Yay! About to adventure around Sydney Town

Hot chocolate at the Lindt cafe

A cheeky lego man!

Drinks with friends at Gardel's Bar

Pie face! How dissapointing!

Outfit shot! Off to Bondi

At Bondi Beach, pretty place but soooo windy the day we went!

Rubbish Tree


More Bondi. I like pink buildings

Elevator faces

Oxford Street

We had a ball! I really enjoyed the vibe of Sydney and I hope to go back soon! There are so many spots we didn't get to go to, but will next time.

Here are a few places you have to check out if you are planning a trip to Sydney

  • Retrospec'd Clothing- I loved this shop and spent up big...but it was worth every cent! Quality reproduction clothing that is cute, comfortable and not overpriced! The red striped knit I have on in a few photos is a firm favourite of mine at the moment
  • Hyde Park- our hotel was a stone's throw away from Hyde Park and Sam and I walked through it a few times. There was something about it that I just loved...a big park with beautiful old trees in the middle of a bustling city
  • Oxford Street- was interesting to walk up and down, with a whole lot of shops, cafes and gay bars! We popped in to a few vintage stores but the prices were a little hefty for me. There was one place with the most uhhh-maay-zing selection of bakelite brooches and bangles, but starting at $500- a bit much for my modest budget!
  • Porteno's Resturant and Gardels Bar- FABULOUS food, cocktails, music, service, atmosphere, boys behind the bar...all I'm saying is GO! GO! GO! I personally guarantee you will fall in love with this place
  • Drey Rolland Band at Rocklily- I never thought I would see a band in a casino that I would like, but this group of talented and cute people were so great! Highly recommend!
