OurBigAdventure

at least for the past 10 days. This is the longest we have ever been gone for one trip! We took the red-eye flight back to Orlando from WPPI last night and got back home around 5:45 this morning. So after picking up the pups we were finally able to get about 5 hours of sleep before having to get back to work again.

So Las Vegas was awesome and we will be posting TONs of photos, stories and reviews so keep checking back.

Goes on the Blog!

We went to the Palms with Michelle and Jeffrey - they have a new tower since last year. Instead of Ghost Bar on top, it has Moon and the Playboy Club! There were lots of "bunnies" running around - serving drinks, dealing cards, etc. I told Chris he had to get a picture with some of them - of course he said yes.



Cute outfits of course - but the matching shoes were a little too 1995 for my taste. It reminded me of the Delta Gammas running out of the UF house at Rush - wearing jewel tone dresses with dyed pumps to match! Yikes! We actually thought that looked good back then!

On our trip to Las Vegas we stayed at Bally's which is right in the middle of the strip. Here's a photo of Bally's and Paris from the Bellagio across the street:



Here is a photo of us with my parents who stayed at the Bellagio, this is in the conservatory which was decorated with a butterfly theme. (I'll post more photos of that later):



So our first big trip in Las Vegas was down to the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef. We saw Sharks, exotic fish, stingrays and a jellyfish tank. Here is some of what we saw:



And of course a photo just outside of the Shark Reef in front of this sign that was projected on the wall. If you walked in front of it your shadow would cause waves in the tank projected on the wall, very cool:

The Bellagio Conservatory was decorated as a butterfly garden while we were in Las Vegas. There were hundreds of flowers and a greenhouse filled with butterflies. Here are some of our photos along with a self portrait.

























And of course another self portrait under the Chihuly glass sculpture in the lobby of the Bellagio.

Just another night in Las Vegas and we were on our way to dinner before going to "O" which is the Cirque Du Soleil show at the Bellagio. We have heard that it is the best show in Vegas, and it was incredible.

Anyway, back to dinner...

We ate dinner at Circo (pronounced Chur-Ko) before the show and this is what we had:









Then we were off to the show. (No cameras allowed though so you have to go buy your own tickets!) But we did get a self portrait before the show with the curtain in the background.



Oh, and here's a shot of my feet!
