Arriving Las Vegas

Chris and I rolled into Las Vegas yesterday while it was still morning after getting up at 3 AM to get to the airport for our flight. We were allowed to check in early at our hotel. Yay. That was great and after a nap we were ready to hit the strip. 

The Venetian

We walked down the strip from the Fountain bleu to the Bellagio. Of course it took a few hours and a stop for dinner. We wanted to see the Bellagio fountains, but the shows were canceled due to the high gusty winds. Of course we did not learn that until arriving for the show. Along the way we lost a few dollars in a slot machine just because we could. I was amazed at the architecture of the Venetian and I had forgotten how expansive was Caesar’s Palace. I enjoyed walking through the Flamingo to get to the monorail.

It was a busy first day and we were exhausted upon arriving back at our hotel. We recorded over 8 miles of walking over the course of the day. Wow, no wonder my feet hurt.
