    Believe it or not, i have like 5 pairs of these jeans in different shades...lighter to darker. I got them at a local shop here in Vegas for about $40 each! I have spent a lot on True Religion, Hudson etc. So, these were too good to pass by ha!

    You're welcome. My mind is STILL on the trip..so need to adjust back to work MODE. The balcony view was amazing. We arrived there at night, so when I looked out I hadn't noticed there was this BEAUTIFUL mountain view. So, in the morning when I saw that view..I was so excited!
