What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas

What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.....

Unless, of course, you are a blogger.  In which case, "what happens in Vegas is forever captured on the blogosphere."  :)

Because of our Hoover Dam detour, we arrived in Vegas after sundown.  So our first shots of it were blurry out-the-car-window-as-we-are-driving-in shots.  It was so bright and colourful!  My goodness there are a LOT of flashing lights everywhere!
 This was the first sighting of our hotel.
 Once we checked into our room and walked for miles from our parking spot in their garage to our room (literally took us 20 minutes), we decided to venture out to the strip and walk around.
 A neighboring hotel/casino.  Donny and Marie were performing there.  For some reason, I've always had a very strange fascination...and Blair had never heard of them.  Goes to show you that, sometimes, even a 3.5 year age difference between us can feel like a generation gap.
 Across the street was the Bellagio.  And we just HAPPENED to arrive just as the fountain show was starting.  It was amazing!
Blair kept talking about the crazy engineering that had to go into creating it.  He was fascinated.

View of our hotel and the Paris hotel.  I think, out of all the ones we visited, Paris was my favourite. 
The night view from our hotel room was gorgeous!
Here's what our room looked like:
This was our closet and hallway.
 Part of the bathroom.
 King-sized bed.
 The TV and desk.
 Our reading nook.
