Vegas was a definite experience - so many people, so much concrete and so much heat. A real sensory rich spot!
We walked until our calves ached checking out the lobbies at each of the casinos. We are lobbied out! The decor from one to the next is just richer and more over the edge. But Wynn was definitely our favorite - beautiful fresh flowers and gorgeous marble floors, wonderful restaurants (at least they seemed to be from reading the menus).

And there must be a pic from the Bellagio - amazing glass work!
But the best of all was going to see The Beatles at Cirque de Soleil. Ninety minutes of amazing joy, wonderment and thrills. It was worth the trip to Vegas just to see this show. I've wanted to see a Cirque de Soleil show for years. Ken thinks that this will satisfy me, but little does he know that I'm already thinking about going to another one!
We did stop to see the Hoover Dam but we missed the turn that would have let us walk out onto the new bridge, will have to save that for another trip.
Nothing special about this drive - lots of open space, few cattle and even fewer homes. Signs for average sales, only $795/acre, a real deal!
We will be at the Grand Canyon South Rim until Sunday. We are camping in the Park and will be without electricity again, and probably no Internet or cell coverage again.
Will be in touch again whence get to my sister's in Phoenix.
Hope this funds you all well and happy!
