We tried to sleep as late as we could, as our dinner reservations aren't until 7:30 and the show starts at 10:30. Memories are starting to get hazier and blurrier as time passes. I sure wish I had started writing this in Las Vegas. Wait a minute - I DID!!! Problem is that I only did it for a couple of days. Then I was having so much fun, it didn't seem to matter. Oh well, I'm just doing this as a kind of "scrapbook" for the three of us and a fun way to share our experience with whomever is interested!
The one thing that the three of us can agree upon is that we pretty much did nothing today. We had reservations for Michael Mina's, a 5 star restaurant at the Bellagio hotel. Here are some pictures that we took while walking around the hotel before dinner.
These bears were in an area of the hotel where it was actually SNOWING!!! I don't know how they did it, but there are just so many amazing things to see in Las Vegas that make you say "how'd they do that???".
This is a Christmas tree that is made up entirely of hand blown glass flowers in every color imaginable...
This was the main Christmas tree in the lobby of the Bellagio. It was absolutely HUGE. I can't even guess how high it actually was, but I will bet that it rivaled the tree at Rockefeller Center.
This display of evening purses was in one of the shops somewhere in the Bellagio. We were in such total AWE at the sheer opulence of everything. Even the casino floor could only be described as opulent. It was not noise like the casino at our hotel. I actually considered getting us rooms here in stead of the Rio - American Express gave me the most incredible price you can imagine. BUT... you remember that $36 bar bill??? It would have been double here.
