and stage costumes worn by Kiss," Evette pointed out.
    "Who is Kiss?" Nicole asked.
    "They're a glam-rock heavy metal band," Evette explained.
    "No wonder I haven't heard of them," Nicole grinned. "My musical tastes aren't as sophisticated as yours, give me Celine Dion or Westlife any day of the week."
    "Ssshh," Evette teased. "Someone might hear you."
    Nicole punched her playfully on the arm.
    "I can't believe the size of the hotel," Nicole said. "It's quite overwhelming. The concierge told me that there are five restaurants, including a branch of the exclusive restaurant Nobu, lots of shops, a spa and hair salon, a nightclub and the hotel even has its own artificial beach!"
    "Wow! We don't even need to leave the hotel if we don't feel like it, there's so much to see and do here."
    "Don't worry, sis. I've got a full itinerary planned for us. Come on, we should get some sleep. We've got a lot to see and do tomorrow."

    "This is like a huge theme park," Nicole said as they emerged from the hotel early the next morning. "There's a huge roller coaster on the outside of the New York, New York Hotel and a terrifying one at the top of the Stratosphere Hotel."
    Evette consulted the itinerary that she'd printed out.
    "Let's skip the rollercoaster," Nicole suggested.
    "Would you like to visit Madame Tussaud's?" Evette suggested.
    "It sounds like an excellent idea."
     
    The sisters spent a few very happy hours wandering around Madame Tussaud's and had their photographs taken with life-like models of Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas.
    Later that afternoon they took a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon and they got to see The Hoover Dam too. The sisters had never been in a helicopter before and it took some adjusting to, but it was well worth it. The views of the canyon were absolutely breath-taking and it made a pleasant change from all the neon lights and signs on the Strip.
     
    They treated themselves to dinner at Sushisamba, a Brazilian themed sushi restaurant. Apparently, Sushisamba is a favourite spot of the Kardashians but the sisters didn't spot them there. They didn't care as they were having so much fun.
     
    Their long weekend went by too quickly. They were absolutely blown away by the Cirque du Soleil show "Love" at the Mirage Hotel. They treated themselves to huge sundaes and cocktails at Serendipity. They boogied the night away at Tao nightclub at the Venetian Hotel and ate a mammoth pizza at Lavo.
    Afterwards, they enjoyed cocktails upstairs, where they were star-struck to see Justin Timberlake in the flesh. They spent a relaxing afternoon at The Four Seasons Pool which is a plush and tranquil resort, providing a welcome refuge from the madness of the Strip. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been spotted swimming there with their ever-growing brood.
    They stopped by the infamous Little White Chapel. Evette was longing to see where so many couples went to have their quickie weddings.
    "Why would anyone want to get married here?" she asked her sister. "It seems so sad and depressing to me. Surely every woman wants to be a princess for a day and your wedding day is one of the few opportunities that we have to experience that."
    "It wouldn't be my taste," Nicole agreed. "I suppose everyone is different."
     
    They spent their last night in Las Vegas gambling at The Hard Rock casino playing blackjack. Evette was thrilled to win five hundred dollars. The sisters had had one too many cocktails before hitting the blackjack tables and had come up with the mastermind plan of playing out the part of the movie Casino where Sharon Stone kisses the dice.
    Evette had a wonderful time playing Sharon. It got to the point where she was so drunk that she started insisting on kissing everyone's dice for luck and whenever anyone won she'd jump up and down yelling "it's the luck of the Irish!"
    Most people found it charming and amusing at first, but quickly grew tired of her inebriated antics.
