Vegas Baby!!


So one morning Donna woke me up and told me she had booked a wedding in Las Vegas. As part of the deal she had negotiated me accompanying her on the trip.


Who could refuse? So off we went to VEGAS! After the WORK was done the PLAY began. One of our stops was Margaritaville!!





We got this great stern seat booth! We had a great over view of the entire restaurant.
Has anyone seen Jimmy Buffett?








Paris from the Bellaggio.
And might I say a great looking couple.














They told me the casinos were huge but how did we end up on the cobbled streets of France??
















VEGAS BABY!!!!!!

We hit every casino on the strip.







The garden in the lobby of the Belaggio was decked out in a autumn theme. Every statue and creation was made completely of flowers. Except old man tree here.




Viva Las Vegas!!!
uh huh!!










Freemont Street was a blast. Donna and I walked the length checking out the sights, sounds, and locals?!?













Just another street creature featured along Freemont Street. Glad we made it here on our last night. We should have done the zipline!!!













While in SIN CITY we saw we managed to see two Cirques - Kriss Angel at Luxor, and "O" at the Belaggio
























Tourists doing the town!!









For the past few years I have heard about the infamous MONOPOLY slot machines. Well here they are. Donna proceeded to turn $100 into $500 and play all week on the same $100. What did I do, tried some slots, but found myself at the blackjack tables. Won some, lost some. But who cares we were having fun.













New York in Las Vegas














Lobby of the MGM Grand



























Nearing the end of the strip on our casino tour. New York, New York behind us. Mandalay Bay to our right, MGM to our left, the Luxor and Excalibur we near.












A big thank you to the happy couple who made our trip possible.

Maybe we'll be back, I've been practicing my blackjack.
