Minus 5 Ice Bar Is a Work of Ice

Minus 5 Ice Bar is the coolest bar in Las Vegas at the Monte Carlo Resort Hotel at a temperature of 23 degrees. One has to wear a coat, a hat, boots and gloves to keep warm upon entering the Ice Bar. The entire 1200 square feet of space is sculptured ice, from the tables, chairs, benches, walls and ice sculptures.

 Faux furs and deer skins  are scattered throughout on the benches and chairs to ease the feel of the freezing cold as you sit on the structures. I still felt the cold when I sat down and I kept the fur coat wrapped snuggly around me.

Upon entering the ice bar we saw a fully stocked bar with a large selection of premium vodkas and hundreds of glasses made of ice to hold our drinks in. The gloves came in handy because I felt the icy cold glass as I held it to drink. The glasses are custom designed with New Zealand artesian water.

I had first become aware of Ice Castles and Ice Hotels made in Sweden and Canada and had always wanted to enter one of Ice Hotels, so when I saw Minus 5 Ice Bar in the Monte Carlo, I was very excited to go in. It definitely was a cool experience and I definitely will go back again when the temperature is 115 degrees in the hot summer.

The Minus 5 Ice Bar is open Sunday-Thursday 11:00 am-2:00 pm, Friday-Saturday 11:00 am -3:00 am. www.minus5experience.com

Come visit the Minus 5 Ice Bar and see what all the ice is about.

Sam Gorrie made a Wonder Woman Wig stand which caught the eye of everyone browsing in the studio workshop.

 

20 Local artists created unique pieces that were inspirational and awesome and one of a kind pieces in honor of Wonder Woman. Alyssa Nott , a beautiful competitive fitness model was masterfully transformed into Wonder Woman by Robin who has mastered the art of body painting to realistic body art.

 

 

 

Everyone agrees that the creations made by Robin are eye popping and jaw dropping and Robin has won many awards and prizes and has won many costume contests. Outstanding are the body paintings of Avatar, Zombies and Day of the Dead, to name a few. www.sincitybodypainting.com

 

It was a touching moment to see Robin’s son Leo play in the studio. He was right at home and stole everyone’s heart as he talked and played with us. He was mesmerized by Mickey Silver, a slight of hand master, known as “The Fastest Hands in the World”.

Robin has an art degree from the School of the Art Institute in Chicago and is known for having the best body painting team in Las Vegas. They create any theme asked for and bring it to life. It is so real that you can hardly believe it is real. Spectacular, creative and beautiful are only a few words to describe the body painting. Her heart and soul is in every body she paints. It was a privilege and a pleasure to watch a master at work.

After three hours this is the finished body and I must say that at the end of three hours, Robin looked just as fresh as when she started and I was the one that was tired after three hours.
