Eric and I are back from our weekend in Las Vegas. What a place! Today we are a little bleary-eyed and slow moving (they don't call it the red-eye for nothing)!! We had a great time sightseeing and people watching. We saw the Cirque du Soleil show 'O'. It was fabulous! It was just amazing to see not only the talent and skill but the technical genius of the show. Half the show was done in a pool with swimmers. The stage floor would rise and fall magically revealing the pool below, deep enough for the performers to dive, spin and twirl from the ceiling. Simply spectacular!
We were staying at the Bellagio. Eric had been attending a business conference at the hotel and extended his stay for our weekend.
We got to see the famous fountains during the day and at night several times. It was also nice to stay on the Strip since everything was walking distance (some sites involving more walking the others). During our three nights, we managed to walk the entire Strip, dodging the guys (and gals) handing out x-rated business cards. We visited all the main casinos and resorts and took lots of pictures. I now have 459 photos to sift through!!
The Bellagio also has a famous conservatory. We took a walk through and of course, took some pictures too!
During our second night, we timed our walk to coincide with the eruption of the volcano at the Mirage. There was plenty to see in LV.
Thanks Mom and Dad for taking care of Alia and Kyra this weekend! We love you! Thanks a million!
