For the past several years, Briton and I have been traveling to Las Vegas over my fall break. We absolutely love the shows, food, and sightseeing! This year we planned our trip out in August and were excited for some time away together. Exactly one week before we were scheduled to land, tragedy struck Las Vegas. We were heartbroken to hear about the senseless act that caused so many lives to be lost. I will never be able to comprehend why someone would want to do something like this. But here is what I learned after traveling there. Hate is strong, but love is stronger. The love we saw throughout the city we overwhelming. The people in the city were heartbroken, yes, but they were also caring. Brit and I both felt that at every restaurant we went to, the servers spent more time talking to us and genuinely caring. On the streets, more people stopped and talked to us. When we visited the memorial, the outpouring of love was so overwhelming that we were both brought to tears. While I cannot and will not ever understand a hate that strong, I know that in the end, love wins. #VegasStrong Click here to read more about the incredible story about an Illinois man that built the crosses and drove them cross country.
