WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS

DOESN'T ALWAYS

STAY IN VEGAS

We just got back from a family trip to Vegas. We had lots of fun and made lasting memories. Here are a few of the things we did: (1) went to the shark exhibit at Mandalay Bay; (2) pigged out at the buffets at the Bellagio and the Mirage; (3) attended the Excalibur Tournament of Kings dinner/show (Tyler really like the show -- he cheered and pounded on the table; it was fun to see him get so excited); (4) went to the forum shops at Caesar's; (5) stayed the night in a luxury suite at the Venetian; (6) visited Gina, Steve and baby Kate in their beautiful home; and (7) watched the Treasure Island pirate show.

Tyler, Jack, and me outside the Venetian. The Venetian has gondolas. Guests can ride around the hotel in a gondola. It was very cool.

This is one of the murals in the Venetian that I really like. I might try to duplicate it in my kitchen.

Mike and Tyler at the Forum shops in Caesars. Can you say decadent?

A mural in the Forum Shops. I loved all the murals.

Tyler touched the sting rays in the shark exhibit at the Mandalay Bay. Tyler was scared he'd fall in the water and end up swimming with the fishes.



Yummy food at the Bellagio buffet.
