Who knew it was so fun to freeze????

While we were in Vegas, we hit up this bar called the Minus 5 Bar which is literally all made of ice. Hysterical because, since it was so cold in Vegas (down in the 30's at night, brrrrr!) the last thing I wanted, was to be even more cold...but it ended up being such a blast!

As part of your cover charge, you get bundled up in big parkas, gloves and boots. My legs were still bare and Rob and Alex were so sweet and eventually gave me their coats for extra bundling - I guess my chattering blue lips and knees were a little pathetic. :) Unfortunately, they don't allow cameras in the bar because they'll eventually freeze, so these are the only shots we got outside, and the rest are all links to the Minus 5's website.

The entire bar was made of ice, everything: the walls, the bar, the stools, benches, tables and even the glasses! It was kinda fun to drink your drink and then smash your "glass" on the ground...although we were only able to do that a few times until we got in trouble :) Apparently broken ice can be slippery, who knew?

When you think about it, it's a genius marketing concept because they take everybody's cover charge and then people can only last about 30 minutes and then you're out! All in all, it was super fun but it definitely reinforced for me (1) I'm such a wuss now that I'm skinnier, I just simply can't tolerate being cold and (2) now I have ZERO desire to visit that ice hotel in Sweden. Girlfriend would last 30 minutes and then check out! Enjoy the pic links:
