We stayed at the Bellagio which is famous for the Chihuly flowers that suspend from the ceiling of the hotel lobby.The Bellagio is also famous for the fountain show which performs multiple times daily and is easily one of the coolest things in Vegas. What makes it even greater is that it is free.
Anyway, we had a great time with the fam … eating some absolutely amazing meals, gambling (Craps and Blackjack were the games most often chosen to relieve us of our money) and walking around the various hotels to take in the over-the-top décor that Vegas is so well known for.
We toured some of the hotels on the main strip – we were really impressed with the décor at the new Wynn hotel and the Venetian – as well as down on Fremont Street where we took in the older hotels and the psychedelic light show. We even got to see a show one night – Spamalot starring John O’Hurley (Eileen’s boss J. Peterman from Seinfeld) as King Arthur.
Brad also took the opportunity to break in our new high speed lens. While he was touring the Vegas strip taking pictures of the sights one day (see some of his fine photos below), I luxuriated in the Bellagio spa. I worked out in a meager attempt to counteract some of the food that we had been eating and then spent a few hours lounging in the hot tub and hanging out with Le Anne. Seriously, I could have stayed there for at least a week.
But alas, as is always the case with vacations, the days flew by and before we knew it, the time had come for us to pack up and hit the road back to good ol’ VA. We had a great time and can’t wait for the next Worsham family vacation!
