A day in the life of Vegas ...

Well, as we reported, we made it to Nevada safely. We checked into the Riviera and found our room to be Great!!! (Here is one of them...). We got settled in and realized the local economy needed a little "SC Stimulus Package" so we visited the "gaming facilities". (Some of you may have seen the totally fabricated video Sherwood put on Facebook.)







After a good night's rest we headed out to explore. Without too much narrative, here are some scenes from the Vegas strip... First, some views of Caesar's Palace ...

... And at the "Venetian" we ran into a couple of old friends ...















... After some quality time with Harrison and Whoopie we headed on over to "Treasure Island" for the "Pirate Ship Battle" but we found that we were too early. First battle starts at 7:30 PM, just 30 minutes before the eruption of the volcano at "The Mirage" casino. We'll try to get good pics of those epic events.

We also have some good pictures of the amazing Manhatten skyline at "New York - New York" and the Eiffel Tower at "Paris By Night". They are on 'real' cameras so when we figure out how to hook everything together, we'll share them with you.

We'll close for now so we can go meet two friends of our son who live out here. We have lots more to show from Vegas but we're really looking forward to getting on the road to the Sierra Nevadas to see all the magnificent sights out there waiting for us. See ya soon ...
