5 THINGS TO DO IN VEGAS THIS FALL!
Hello everyone,
Welcome to my city, a desert paradise with not much of an autumn season, but the city of entertainment where we make fall come to us. Simply said, Las Vegas is the city where everything is possible! With so much to do and see you'll need a full month to explore every fabulous corner of this shiny and captivating place.
Most of us are in the mood for everything fall related - warm sweaters, leaves changing colors, hot coffee, so I thought, what better way to celebrate every beauty of this season than by sharing with you some of the things that make Vegas a fall-tastic adventure. These are five of the things I enjoy doing the most once October arrives in my city. If, by any chance, you're visiting Las Vegas this month, I hope this post gives you some ideas of what to do while here.
1. Visit the Botanical Gardens at Bellagio
Every season, with no exception, the Botanical Gardens at Bellagio get transformed into the most beautiful displays. Suddenly, you feel like you've entered into a Disney world where the calming music takes you through bigger-than-life floral creations.
This autumn the "Sleeping Goddess" covered in flowers and autumn leaves brings the magic of this season. It feels as if you're in another world, which is why I always enjoy going there and entering each season with a new festive outlook. Plus, I could easily take her spot if she gets tired of sleeping because I lead the record of sleeping more than eight hours especially in the fall and winter. hahaha!
It's completely free to the public and you can walk around as much as you like. Don't be surprised if you can't take the perfect photo because the crowds are massive. There hasn't been a time when I have seen this place empty - only once - when I passed by at 3am, but there were still a few night owls roaming like me.
2. Get Your Seasonal Veggies & Fruits at Gilcrease Orchard
Make it a fun family day by visiting the Gilcrease Orchard to pick out this season's fresh fruits and veggies. Of course, during this month you will find pumpkins, which you can carve for Halloween.
To me, this is one of the most fun ways to welcome fall in and really enjoy some quality time with the people you love. You're in fresh air surrounded by the smell of soil with open fields that you can walk around in while you fill out your basket with lots of healthy goodies. That's what I call the start to an amazing autumn season!
It opens at 7am to 2pm and works on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Set your alarm clock (if you're like me... can't wake up early without a little help) and head orchard picking.
3. Hot Coffee at Starbucks
I know almost all the coffee spots in Las Vegas, but Starbucks has been dear to my heart from the very beginning. I may not like the windy days, but that's the perfect excuse for me to head out for a hot cup of coffee. It warms my soul and makes me super happy!
I know fall has hit when I want something hot because most of the months it's iced drinks and coffees. My favorites are Caramel Macchiato, Cappuccino or White Chocolate Mocha. I rotate between these three options, so I never get bored. (Very clever, I know!) What's your favorite?
Without a doubt drinking coffees is what I feel I was born for LOL!
4. Walk & Talk at Red Rock Canyon
Yes, I grab my sister and we head walking and talking at Red Rock Canyon. We catch the beautiful sunsets.
This month is ideal for a hike because the weather is like what we, instagrammers, like to say, #OnPoint. You can breathe, you can speak while you breathe... I think you get my point!
Okay, so you won't be seeing any falling leaves from trees, but this is as close to autumn as we can get thanks to the change in the air from humid to fresh. I just like it like that and try to appreciate it since it will only last for about three months.
5. Paper Pumpkins & Leaves DIY
With each new season we love to decorate our homes festive, so we fill up the atmosphere of decorations that bring warmth and that "homey" feeling in every room. That's why, in October, I like adding touches of things that represent fall, like pine cones, scented candles, leaf garlands, and why not even your own DIY paper creations?! If you have time on your hands, doing crafts can be so much fun! What do you think of my pumpkin and leaf decor wrapped up in twinkling lights?
This is such a great activity to do with your kids (if you have any) or you can be the kid in this case, like me. Crafting is the kind of thing that allows you to welcome the new season right in the comfort of your home. It won't cost you much and the best part is you can reuse your DIY for years to come.
