Another Trip

I was in the car with Marilou and Jan, waiting for Jamie to come out of school last Friday. Jamie was looking forward to see me at her school open house this Tuesday. My cellphone rang and I received instructions to go to Vegas for a convention. That meant leaving on a Sunday, return on Friday and totally missing my daughter's open house. Anyway, when I arrived at my hotel, Jamie asked me for pictures of where I'm staying. My cellphone doesn't really take sharp pictures (and videos) but here are some anyway:

1. View from the plane some 30 minutes prior to landing in Vegas


2. Getting close


3. Second prior to landing, you see life appear in the middle of the desert


4. The office/living area of the room


5. A blurry picture of the gondolas at the Venetian


6. A blurry picture: Vegas version of Piazza San Marco in Venice


7. The Bellagio


8. Ceasar's Palace, right beside the Bellagio


9. Video: das Zimmer


10. Video: Bellagio fountain show

The light show is on every 15 minutes and a different song is played, resulting in a different pattern from the previous show.
