"City of Sin"

Once upon a time there lived a couple that loved traveling. They were known as Mac and Marissa Stripson. During Mac and Marissa's journey through the desert, they stumbled upon the city of sin. Mac and Marissa have always heard of what happens in the city of sin but have never experienced it for themselves. Being the adventurers they are, they decided to travel down the strip to find a local disco. They stumbled into club Lavo and they were instantly surrounded and welcomed by celebrities. They didn't pay for a single ounce of water and drank to their hearts content. Some of the celebrities they met we LMFAO (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNtTEibFvlQ) and NBA superstar Tony Parker. Mac and Tony were friends growing up so they were drinking and talking for the majority of the night while Marissa was hanging with the LMFAO crew. 

When they woke up the following day they vowed never to drink that much water again. The city of sin wasn't just a vacation, Marissa had important photography business to take care of. So her and Mac would go their separate ways during the day. While Marissa was busy working, Mac was living it up on the strip. You could say something was in the air. Mac found himself walking so much that he needed a new pair of shoes. To his amazement he found a shoe that was made for him. They call them "Mac's Desert Boots". When he put the boots on, it was as if he transformed into the most important person in the city of sin. When he went gambling they would practically give him their money just to save time. When he went out to eat they would always seat him right away even when there was a line. When he wanted to cut loose at the disco he received VIP treatment everywhere. But Mac didn't want Marissa to know that he was having so much fun while she was working. So he would say things like, "I lost $40 on Blackjack, I ate lunch in front of the T.V. at home, and the clubs are boring here". 

Mac started missing Marissa so much during the day that all of the benefits of wearing these boots were not worth it. No amount of money could make him feel the way Marissa made him feel. So he decided to purposely lose all the money he won on blackjack. He also decided to grow an awful looking mustache and goatee so he would never be treated like VIP at the clubs again. 

At the end of their stay in the city of sin, Marissa and all of her co-workers were ready to boogy. The ultimate photogrphers party was about to go down in historical fashion. The party was held at the super sexy Studio 54 at the M&M Grand. Since this was their last night, Mac decided that he wanted this to be the best night in the city of sin for Marissa. So he put on the desert boots one last time. Upon their arrival they were greated at the door by Matthew Mcconaughey and Celine Dion. On cue they both said, "Welcome to paradise Mr. and Mrs. Stripson". Mac and Marissa had heard that before, but this time it was for real. Walking into the club was a jaw dropping experience. The water was free, there was trapeze artist swinging from the ceiling, and Celine took the stage singing Lady Gaga. Marissa looked over to Mac and said, "Their is something about you that is amazing" to which he replied, "It must be the shoes". They spent the rest of the night slow dancing to all of Celine Dion's greatest hits, but most importantly the Titanic song. Mac and Marissa could not believe how much fun they had in the wild city of sin. It is no wonder why they say "What happens at a photography convention, stays at a photography convention". 

This is based on true events, but do to legal reasons we had to disguise Mac and Marissa's true identities. Due to the city's naughtiness ,we had to blur all inappropriate material.

Days traveled: 27
