Returning Home One Last Time

Tonight Veronica and I will be heading back to our place on the Outer Banks. Veronica has just a few days left to work at her store there and I have a few days to finish cleaning up whatever is left over from my last visit. I still have a couple of rooms left to clean up so we can get our deposit back. We also have a carpet cleaning service coming on Wednesday the 12th. We will be returning our keys into the management company at the end of the month and that will wrap up that chapter of our lives. It was interesting living on the Outer Banks with our most memorable times being the couple of hurricanes that went through the area while living there.
Veronica had a good birthday. We went to Ruths Chris and had a great meal and then saw the Cirque du Soleil production Kooza. It was a great show held under a huge circus style tent. Luckily the air conditioning was working well because it was really hot and muggy out. We were seated 3rd row from the front and basically centered to the stage. I would highly recommend seeing Kooza if you get the opportunity. Seeing it in a huge tent and it being a travelling show added a whole new dimension to the show.

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.
