We just got back from our trip to Las Vegas last night. We flew to Vegas on Sept. 8.<\/p>\n

This was our first trip to Vegas. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We ate good food, met some wonderfully friendly local people, and walked, and walked, and walked.<\/p>\n

We saw two shows–one of which was Mamma Mia<\/a>. This show was the highlight of the trip!<\/p>\n

I also loved the palm trees. I know that palm trees are not native to Vegas and all the palm trees I saw there had been imported. The palm trees made the location seem that much more tropical. The different varieties of palms seemed endless!<\/p>\n

We met some wonderfully friendly and interesting locals while in Las Vegas. Just like the palm trees, many of them were “imported” to Vegas and added to the colour and liveliness of the city.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite attractions was the fountains at the Bellagio<\/a>. The choreography of these fountains to the music was magnificent.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

My favorite of the themed hotels from the exterior was New York New York<\/a>. My husband says I took more pictures of this hotel than any other. I still marvel at the size of the hotel and how small I felt walking past it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One of the hotels that my husband and I fell in love with was the Luxor<\/a>–the Egyptian themed hotel. I would have loved to stay in a room in the pyramid! Perhaps next time.

I managed to find a couple of friendly faces………………<\/p>\n

…………….and so did my husband!<\/p>\n

Wonderful memories of a wonderful vacation!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
