Life Through My Eyes: Las Vegas Trip

Today after waking up and having our breakfast, we headed out to the Treasure Island Hotel so that we could pick up our tickets for our next Cirque Du Soleil show....Mystere that was going to be shown at 7:30 that night. We had purchased these tickets prior to leaving home. We got a really good price and excellent seats for this show.
We got these tickets through a really good web site... Vegas.com If you are ever going to Las Vegas, make sure that you check out this web site. They have a ton of valuable information on every topic that has to do with Las Vegas.
After getting the show tickets, we ended up going all the way to the Strastosphere Hotel. As it turned out, this hotel is not really in the most desirable section of town. We ended up visiting a lot of hotels on this day.
That night, we went to the Mystere show...it was fantastic. One of the best, if not THE best, Cirque Du Soleil show we have seen to date. We had great seats too. After the show, we went to a bakery shop called the Cupcakery that was in the Monte Carlo Hotel complex. We went there a couple of nights and brought back a snack to our room. Their cupcakes were delicious and they had some great flavors too.

We were on foot when we took these photos

The Stratosphere Hotel. We were thinking about going taking the elevator the top of the tower to get a great view of Las Vegas but when we got there, we learned that it would cost $16 a piece, so we decided to skip it.

Here is another one of the numerous wedding chapels that Vegas is known for

This is one of the older hotels in Vegas. It wasn't a very clean appearing hotel and the same could be said for the Stratosphere Hotel. I had heard that they had an amusement center in this hotel but when I looked, it was all closed down.

Here are some photos of the cupcakes we got from the Cupcakery

This morning we got up and went out in search of some breakfast. Veronica was able to find numerous Starbucks located all over the Vegas strip and I was able to get my coffee at McDs in the food court. This became our routine for the morning. Veronica would get her coffer at Starbucks and I would get an almond bear claw. Then we would go to McDonalds where I would get my coffee and Veronica would get a sausage biscuit.
After breakfast we hit the streets and made our way through each hotel.

Here are some photos from the Bellagio. They had it decorated for the Chinese New Year

They had a really cool art exhibition outside of the Cirque du Soleil Theatre in the Bellagio. Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to get as many photos as I wanted. Not sure why I was shut down on taking the photos but unfortunately I was. I was politely told that I could only take a couple.

Here is a real nice pastry/chocolate shop....Jean Philippe Maury...Award Winning and Executive Pastry Chef. This place was always busy. The woman in the dress below is made all of chocolate.
