Videos Of Our Las Vegas Adventure

Here are some videos that I took on our latest adventure in Las Vegas

This video was taken in one of the malls.

These videos were taken of the water fountains and the water show that is in front of the Ballagio

This next batch of videos are from the show that is in Ceasars Palace

These videos are of the general Vegas strip area around our hotel

These videos are of the night time water fountain show that is in front of the Bellagio

The wind shifted during this last video and we ended up getting pretty wet. There was a fine mist from the fountains floating everywhere. That is why the video might appear to be somewhat blurred or difficult to see at the end of it.

Day 5 Of Our Las Vegas Adventure

Well today was our last day in Las Vegas. We had a few more hotels that we wanted to check out plus we had tickets to our last Cirque Du Soleil show... O, which was at the Bellagio. Our tickets were for the 7:30PM show. After spending the day walking the Vegas strip, we got something to eat and then went to the Bellagio to see the show.This show was very different from other Cirque Du Soleil shows that we had previously seen. It was different mainly because much of the show had a pool and/or water features to it. Overall, it was a really good show. After the show we took the opportunity to take some night photos of the strip along with some videos of both the Vegas strip and of the water fountain show that is held out front of the Bellagio. After taking in the water fountain show, we headed back to our room to finish packing our luggage and to go to bed early. We needed to get up around 2:45AM so that we could get ourselves ready for our 6AM flight out of Las Vegas. I have not mentioned anything about our gambling adventures while we were in Vegas. In every hotel that we visited, we dropped a dollar into one slot machine. We didn't win anything that way. We did spend a little more time in a few other hotel casinos along with the casino in the Monte Carlo. Other than winning $39 playing some type of fishing slot machine, we were down a few bucks.On this last day in Vegas, we spent more time in our hotel casino and it paid off for us.I ended up playing a slot machine called Deal Or No Deal which is based on the television game show. It was a fun and interactive type of machine, which I like better than the ones that you just pull the lever or press a button.The slot machine I was playing was a penny machine. The machine ended up paying off for about an hour. We ended up winning about $100 from this machine.I cam real close to hitting it big time. I had about five 7s across the pay line and the sixth 7 was just below the pay line. Has that last 7 been on the pay line, I would have won a bundle but isn't that typical of Las Vegas...almost hit it big time, could've, would've and should've.

Everything looked different at night time.

Veronica told me that this was the place she saw on tv that had a $1,000.00 sundae. This sundae had gold leaf sprinkled on it.

This is the Rio Hotel, where Penn and Teller perform

We found this shrine outside of Caesars Palace. We said a prayer and then lit an incense and placed it in the sand that was in front of  the shrine

The Ballagio

This statue of Siegfried and Roy was between the Mirage and the Treasure Island Hotels

I believe that this lion exhibit was in the Mirage

And here I thought that what was done in Vegas, stayed in Vegas. It might be hard to tell which way I was looking but you can use your imagination and probably be correct. I should know better than to leave the camera with Veronica.

Day 3 Of Our Las Vegas Adventure

This morning we woke up and did our usual breakfast routine of Starbucks and McDonalds.
We decided that we were going to get tickets to the Cirque Du Soleil show...Zumanity. We went over to the ticket office at the New York New York hotel complex and were able to buy 2 tickets at less than half price, for that nights 10 o'clock show.
After getting the tickets were roamed around the hotel and then made our way up the strip to visit more hotels.
We ended up spending the day mainly walking around and taking in the sights and sounds of Las Vegas.
That night we saw the somewhat risque and erotic show Zumanity. I personally was somewhat disappointed with the show. The show came across as a cheap version of a normal Cirque Du Soleil show. I am glad that we did not spend more money on this show. We got balcony tickets for about $79 total and our seats were in the front row of the balcony.
We didn't get back to our room until after midnight and we were pretty well wiped out from all of the walking around we did, so we turned in for the night.
Below are some more photos of the sights that we saw during our adventure.

Below are a few photos taken through the window of the tram that we took from one hotel to another one that was further down on the strip. The tram and monorail system sure helped us out when we got tired of walking.
