The Last Days - Las Vegas

Only a few of us left in Las Vegas and San Francisco.  Las Vegas is all people say.  Amazing to say the least!!!!  An adult playground.  Elaine (now known as E), Pam, Rosalie, Geoff, Jo and Adrianna stayed at the lovely Bellagio.  It was hot hot hot but that did not stop us checking out the sights, shopping and casinos. 

The Bellagio is very nice.  Food is amazing and the buffet for brunch great - we all hoed in and stuffed ourselves silly - it lasted the day.  One of the Bellagio highlights is the Fountain show - choreographed to different music for each showing - it is fabulous to watch. 

We all went on the helicopter ride to Grand Canyon.  Amazing!  Not so sure about being in the front seat with the pilot but worth landing in the canyon and having champagne.  It was very hot - about 46 deg C.

Casinos everywhere!  Of course we have all made our donations.   The 2 tragics of the group went and saw Donnie and Marie (1 somewhat reluctantly).  It was a blast.  Wonder who the tragics were :)

Shopping - we were told that shopping in Vegas is a must - we all made a dent in our wallets with some great bargains.

  1. I know for a fact that J is the tragic and A attended under duress. Can't wait to hear your tales of Vegas. Grand Canyon looks amazing - hope to get there one day. Safe travels back home. xxx
