The Beatles "love"





My sister and I went to this show. CIRQUE DU SOLEIL. It was amazing. There were people on stage, up in the air. It was all done in the middle so there wasn't any bad seats. We enjoyed it. Something very different. I'd recommend going if you ever get a chance. From what I heard from other people there are about 4 different shows that the Cirgue Du Soleil does, if we had more time (and money lol) I would of gone to the water one. I still have the tickets but need to take a picture of them. I should of gotten my sister to take a picture of me in front the the cool lights. Oh well next time right. Ok I will blog more pics another time gotta go feed the children.

The Tigers






Because of the cool weather all of the animals were out lounging. They like this cool weather. The last picture is of the new leopard they have. I think he is 3 months old? Or was is it 6. Anyways it was neat to see all of them.

Dolphins at the Secret Garden



Here are some pics of the dolphins at the Secret Garden which is at the Mirage. Was it cold that afternoon. Yes I said "cold" only +10. (yes it was warmer than here at home....not the point)

M&M World!






This store was 4 floors and I couldn't believe the stuff. And not cheap by any means. All I bought there was a 5 pack of pencils for the kids for $4.00. And the belt (which is blurry) was priced at $50 american. Can you believe that.

View from hotel




I went to Vegas with my mom, and my sister. They both have been there many times. So this was my first trip there, anywhere in fact. Been years since I have been away without the kids. We stayed at the Mirage, a very nice hotel and my sister got a coupon believe it or not to upgrade our room. So we were on the 20th floor and it was a nice room. It will take me a few days to update my blog on this trip. So many pictures......more than 300 actually. Thank goodness for "digital" lol. In these pictures from our hotel room you can see the pool right below and then the 2nd pool of water is actually the "Secret Garden" where the zoo animals are. Dolphins, tigers, lions. I will post those pics later. The hotel is massive. I got lost the first day. Then the other picture you can see Ceasers Palace that is where the strip is. And you can see all the huge cranes. Many new hotels are being built. It is unreal to see some of them. One hotel is leaning...not sure if I have a pic of that one. But you could go online and see it. It is so cool. Heck Vegas is so Cool!

We left last Wednesday afternoon. Flight was delayed so didn't get there till.....ok no idea my mind has gone blank. Anyways we had 2 full days. Not enough to see everything. Flew out of Vegas around noon to Saskatoon. And I stayed there the night and came home Sunday night. Flight delayed a hour and a half ohh what fun. But thats ok I had a great time in Vegas!

Vegas Here We Come!



So here we are flying just above the clouds. It was still light above the clouds then all of a sudden someone hit a switch and it was dark. Here is Vegas from the plane.
