Las Vegas strip

While staying at Lake Mead, we took a couple of daytrips to Las Vegas. The first one was to the Strip.

We had actually planned to stay overnight at the Mirage, and attend “The Beatles Love” Cirque du Soleil show, but had to bail on those reservations as Jenn was sick with food poisoning for several days. But once she was better, we made do with the daytrips.

Driving to the Strip, we snagged a picture of the famous “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Nevada” sign:

We parked, and went searching for lunch. We ended up at the Hard Rock Cafe, and walked across the road while waiting for a notification of our table being ready:

Pretty sure those buildings weren’t there the last time we were in Vegas… which admittedly was 16 years ago:

Paris is still the same, though:
