It wouldn't be a trip to Vegas without a buffet dinner. This is at the Aliante Hotel (just Marji's "neighborhood" casino) and not the smorgasbord you remember. Take your pick of cuisine from sushi to TexMex.
The next morning, off to the Strip. Here's a view from Caesar's Palace looking toward Paris.
Next stop, the Bellagio. Chiluly left a few baubles behind on the ceiling...
Under the golden horse...
The Bellagio Conservatory all decked out for Chinese New Year...
The Year of the Goat, John's lucky birth year...
Watching the labor intensive floral decorations....
Red is a LUCKY color...
The Bellagio fountain free show....
Off to the High Roller...Amazingly, an entire car to ourselves!
Up we go for the thrilling half hour slow spin...
Almost 600 feet up, cars turn into toys...
And massive hotel complexes like the Flamingo become doll houses...
The end to perfect day? Dinner at the Cheesecake Factory topped off by a slice of Godiva chocolate cheesecake. Today we're headed out to Boulder Dam to see more natural and man-made wonders. Having a terrific time. Wish you were here.
