Down on Freemont Street (the older/original part of Las Vegas)....
Ceasar's Palace....
Our hotel, the Belagio had these great fountain shows they put on each night....
Hoover Dam...This is the new bridge/roadway over the river. The traffic in the area is so bad at times it can back up for hours that this bridge should help.....
Looking down at the dam....
This is the roadway over the dam this is being replaced with the above bridge.....
Inside the Dam.....
Dam Water pipes.....
We went on a cruise of Lake Mead....the largest man made lake......
This is the other side of Hoover Dam from Lake Mead....(See the new bridge)...
Crusing down the Lake..... 
It was a beautiful lake....very clean.... 
We stopped at a Visitor's Center and here is another view of Lake Mead....
When we were at Freemont Street I got my "cards read"....Looks like I have a long life and I apparently am still seeking my "soul mate!!!".....I had never had this done, it was fun....
Binions Casino.....Brian and I got our photo taken with a MILLION DOLLARS here....
This is the Freemont Street in the daytime..... 
Here it is in the evening with all the lights....They would put on light shows in the ceiling and all the casino lights would turn off and everyone would just stop and watch....really cool....
One of the many things that has changed since we were in Las Vegas last is that you can now take photos in the casinos (just not in the high rollers area!)....I was loving this....
Brian even took a photo of me! Notice I was doing the 5cent machines....
Look at the size of this machine....... 
Brian on the esculators near New York and Excalabur casinos.....
Here is Brian trying his luck..... 
Paris hotel....very nice....
Besides seeing Elvis a few hundred times, our only other "celebrity sighting" was Dick Buckus....I I honestly did not know who he was!
The Venetian....They had gondala rides but since it was sprinkling they closed them down...that was on my list of stuff to do (oh well.....)
They had a M&M World on the strip.....of course I had to take my photo with M&M guy (Brian would not do it....I don't know why)....
Like the driving billboard behind him??? They were everywhere, I guess that's why they call it Sin City.....
This mall was attached to our hotel....it had Dior, Tiffany's, and every high end shop you could think of...needless to say...we did not do much (or any) shopping here....
Hand blown glass flowers in the lobby of our hotel.....
Our hotel lobby......BEAUTIFUL.....
The Flower area of our hotel......
They had all these animals made of flowers...... 
We have never stayed at a hotel that provided up with our own robes.....
Here is our room......it was soooooo nice....
The view outside our 26th floor room......We could watch all the beautiful people sun bathe!
Our hotel again at night.....
After a nice few days away we headed home when our van broke down in Greenville.....We stayed the night and tried to head out again the next day and ended up breaking down in Mulberry Grove where Ali picked us up and we had the van towed home.....Here is Brian looking at me thinking I can't believe you are taking photos of me right now!!!!
There are a few other things....but like the saying goes...what happens in Vegas...stays in Vegas!!
