Ah, Las Vegas!! We are camped about 20 miles out of Vegas, on the shore of Lake Mead. At $5.00 a night it sure beats the hotel prices on the "Strip".
We did car pool into town a few times. Spent about 2 hours walking the strip and we saw only a small portion.
The Mirage.
The Paris with the Eiffel Tower.
One of the pumpkin displays at the Bellagio. One in the middle is about 5 feet across.
At the Bellagio the Conservatory is always spectacular. Now, decorated for Halloween it was scary indeed.
The flowers are beautiful--not a wilted one in sight.
The WINs of course do Halloween right. Here we are ready to trick or treat on Fremont Street.
Yes, I was right there.
Tommy Gunn and his lady Karen.
Then on to Fremont Street--a pedestrian mall with casinos, restaurants, etc.
On Halloween night it becomes a walking show of costumes--some extravagant, weird, obscene, cute.
I didn't take a single photo of any of them. Then there is the overhead light show.
Several of us went to see Cirque du Soleil - "Mystere" at Treasure Island.
I had never been to one of these shows and Wow I was really impressed. No photography was allowed so I have to rely here on an advertisement. Even in the nose bleed section it was wonderful.
Here is Lake Mead from the Boulder Beach Campground. Not where we stayed this year but I took this when on a bike ride.
Now this is near where we are staying this year--Las Vegas Bay Campground. I walk Parker out along a trail and this is my view. Parker's view is much closer to the ground.
Definately desert here--gravel and mesquite bushes.
Also went to see "Last Vegas" at the movies. Enjoyed a good belly laugh--maybe because I can relate.
Now we leave for Lake Havasu City in Arizona, home of the London Bridge.
Stay tuned.
