Las Vegas Trip '07

Well, we went on our yearly trip to Vegas again, and it was fun as usual. We did some things a little differently time.


So, if you can tell by the photos, I got to take a photo with Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner. I am telling you, they were very nice and did not mind at all standing very still for the photos! Carl took a photo with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, of course he had to go back in time to get that one, and to the moon at that! Wow, some feat huh?

Sorry about how the photos are arranged, I am still working to correct this weird placement of photos, if anyone has any ideas please let me know, it is driving me batty! Anyway, the photos of course are of Carl and I in various areas of Vegas including dinner and a couple of us at Madame Trussaeau's Wax Museum. Let me tell you, standing up close and personal to these figures is totally creepy, especially the ones that looked 100% like the real deal. Some weren't as good as others but the ones that were the best were standing in the middle of the room, you almost said "excuse me" to them as you passed! Weird, but interesting.

Then of course there is the Vegas sign, just so you know where we were. The restaurant pictured is Blackstone's Steakhouse, very yummy, we had Filet Mignon, and some side dishes and appetizers. We also had yummy desserts too, Creme Brulee for me and ice cream for Carl.

We stayed at the Monte Carlo, which we will probably not stay at again, very noisy plumbing and the pipes knocked all night! Very loudly too! We like the Luxor better. I would really like to stay at the Bellagio or the Venetian, but they are way out of our price range! Maybe Mandalay Bay next time? Hmmmmm.... we shall see.
