As it was my virgin trip to Las Vegas, Nevada, I had no idea what I was in for.  Expectant of nothing, I found this gambler’s mecca quite appealing in a grown-up, hedonistic Disneyland kind of way.  Arriving to the Paris hotel was a shock in itself with the Eiffel tower opening up into a casino where the skies are always blue.  The American flags in front of such a strongly French symbol are interestingly ironic.

A walk over to the Venetian proved that you can get a little bit of Italia in Nevada.

Every time I walked out of my hotel, the Bellagio water show was in full swing across the street.  Quite a pleasure to witness that eye candy several times a day.

Paris in daytime is an interesting sight.  The lack of seizure lights make you feel a little bit normal after a night of casinos and clubs.

The Bellagio latte was a delicious one.  As it should be at $6.42 a pop.  But definitely necessary after a night in a city with an open container law.

And once again, favorite of the five?  I need your help putting my book together.  An explanation to come of what that nonsense is about.
