The Samurai exhibit at the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art is pretty cool. There is armor and weapons everywhere, along with a recorded guide session that explains everything for you. The exhibit is there until April 29th, so be sure to check it out if you are a fan of history and find yourself near the Las Vegas Strip.
More late night walking about equals more Vegas sights to share.
The Cosmopolitan is my favorite Las Vegas Casino by far. A friend of mine and I have a running love affair with the Wheel of Fortune slot machine over near the Vesper Bar. Tonight, I started with $20.00 and got to a high point of $141.25 before calling it quits and cashing out at $100.00. A lucky night for me! Please visit this Hotel and Casino if you find yourself on the Vegas Strip.
On the way down from Lee Canyon, I was blessed with this beautiful sunset. I just had to wander out into the desert for some photos.
One of my favorite outings from Las Vegas is a drive out to Deer Creek Road. It is so magical how you can quickly transform from the desert to mountains. And the drive only takes about 45 minutes from the Vegas Strip, depending on the traffic. The views here are gorgeous, and you just might run across some wild donkeys or horses, which are native to the area.
I always recommend parking at the top level of the parking garage. You never know what the view will offer.
I still have some vacation time to burn before the end of the year, so I flew off to Las Vegas for the Thanksgiving Holiday. Here are some photos from my walking about this evening.
My trip to Las Vegas was wonderful. Of course I got to the Airport early so I could explore, eat some lunch, check out the views, and feed the slot machines for one last time.
