Few more pics --

Here are just a few more pictures I took yesterday. I don't usually carry a camera around Vegas at all, but I wanted to this time to share pics on my blog for my kids to see (everyone else too) and also because we probably won't be getting down this way again anytime soon. The first picture is a horse in the lobby of the Bellagio Hotel. Then there is the Effiel Tower at Paris. Unfortunately, the one I took at night all lit up was a little blurry. The next is some kind of duck at the Flamingo Hotel. He was really cute. The last two are from the shops at Caesar's Palace. I never liked Caesar's that much, but that's mostly because I can't afford to shop at the stores there. We did get some awesome cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. But I have to admit, it's nice to see Caesar's Palace staying true to their theme, whereas a lot of the other hotels have strayed away from their original theme. Treasure Island could be such a fun place if they'd get back to pirate stuff. The same goes for the Luxor and the Egyptian theme. Oh well. It's a good thing I'm not running this town or else it would probably go bankrupt. We talked to a cab driver last night and he said the city is really struggling. We have a late check-out today, so we're probably going to grab some breakfast and then catch our shuttle back to the airport. Unfortunately, we have to sit there for a few hours. Then we should be arriving home sometime around 7:30pm. The girls told me it was snowing pretty good yesterday, so I'm just hoping we can get our van up our road to make it to the house. The weather here in Vegas has been really nice. It's been in the 60s, which is way better than how it is in the summer when it reaches 115 or so. Anyway, it's been fun, but it's time to start packing up. I hope everyone is well and I'm looking forward to catching up on everyone's news when I get settled back home. Nichelle, Nicole, Nathan & Neil -- love you all and we'll be home soon!
