Viva Las Vegas


Bonnie Spring NV




One of the funniest Wild West Shows we have ever seen. And it was a real stagecoach stopping point. And there really is a Bonnie Spring. We just loved this place! Great food too!!!



Words to live by. This sign should be everywhere.
See all the famous people we hung out with.

Off to Tony and Tina's wedding.
Well, it was a close call. We could have gotten a
quickie Las Vegas Divorce or a Quickie Marriage with Elvis.
We flipped a chip and Elvis won!
Whew!

We found a great Chinese restaurant!
Bonnie had Mu Shu where the waiter wrapped them at the table.
Best Mu shu I have ever tasted.
I had honey walnut chicken that was out of this world.



Emperor's Garden
On Sunday morning we went to a swap meet (flea market)
a wide range of stuff here.
I bought several cd's but the best is a two cd set of

Marlene Dietrich singing in German!
Inside Caesar's palace.
A beuatiful night in Vegas!



The fountain show at the Belagio was very nice.
While waiting for Bonnie to park the car I saw a
couple cuddling against the cool Vegas air, it was a
perfect photo moment so I took the pictire and
got their email address to send it to them.
They also took our picture.

The food so far as been less than inspiring.
It's not that the food is bad, rather, kind of severly average.
the "Peppermill" has a great fruit plate though.

just before sunrise it is very cold in the desert.

As the sun rises on the Moab Indidan reservation
Here is Bonnie's first use of a coupon in Vegas!
A cool Red 2006 Mustang.
We got into the car and drove into the Nevada desert

doing about 118 mph!
Sweeeeet!
It may be blurry BUT it really is the Strip in Vegas
from still too high up to lose money yet.
I believe this is the intersection of Rt 80 & 46 & 10
so we waved goodbye to the kids and were on our way.
