In Las Vegas
We have been having a fabulous time in Sin City! The internet here is 10.95 for 24 hours, so this will be our one day online!! We arrived on Monday night, after routing through Atlanta, which is completely out of the way while connecting from DC, and we had a late bite to eat and drinks with our parents over at Nine Fine Irishmen. The next day was outlet shopping, and we had an amazing dinner at Sensi at the Bellagio. I have also been enjoying the water show from our room, as we look right over top of it from our 9th floor window. Checking in was amusing, because as always, the man informed us "there are no non smoking rooms left". I insist that we must have one. So as we go through all the hassle, and then the second we suggest that they could comp us a free dinner for our hassle....a room is suddenly free!
We saw Mamma Mia on Tuesday night, which is my favorite musical of all time, it was excellent. At the end they were just playing a few Abba songs, and the highlight had to be when this gay couple beside us got up in the aisle and all intertwined, were dancing away to "Dancing Queen." Let me tell you, there was a bit of laughter at the amusement of it all! They were just living it up in the spotlight too, being right beside the stage!
Yesterday we discovered the Fashion Show mall, where I swear, every store known to mankind that I have ever heard of is either there or somewhere on the strip! I found a few things, as did Rob ( we both lucked out with jeans in Macy's) and then we had dinner at the Venetian, in the blue sky version of St. Marks Square.
Today I plan to sit in the heated pool for a bit before wandering the strip some more!
