Las Vegas

We went to Las Vegas with our homegroup in the middle of January.  It was a super fun trip to a place like no other I've ever been! 

In front of our hotel, The Paris

Street Art...this guy was amazing with spray paint!  but nothing matches grown adults walking around with yard long margaritas hanging from their necks, which we also saw plenty of!

we walked through all of the casinos and hotels - just a WONDER to see; so much beauty and creativity and oppulence!  Here we are in the Venetian...

the Wynn

golden cow...how appropriate

the first winnings!!!  130$ on a horse race! 

 

Outside Treasure Island, watching The Sirens show

Revolution Bar outside the Beatles show...

back in the Venetian...

 

dinner at the Trevi- great Italian and we really felt like we were sitting in a piazza in Rome!

 

 

playing my first nickel slot...I didn't win anything...

but Gene sure did!! He turned 60 cents into 25 dollars - wow!

glass flowers on the ceiling in the Bellagio

watching the water fountain show in front of the Bellagio...I wondered what the big deal was...and then I saw WHAT THE BIG DEAL WAS - wow!!  it was really cool!

 

in front of our hotel

 

eating in New York, New York

found a slot machine for my girl!

in front of the Luxor

playing poker - ok, I'm just watching (much to the chagrin of the very not nice poker dealer who hated my guts), and they're playing.  they played lots and lots of lots of poker while we were there!
