We're staying in the Excalibur hotel (the medieval), which is interesting! Luckily no swords or suits of armour in our room though, so not too horrendous! We've heard about the nightly dragon show, but for $72 each we're probably going to give it a miss! We are however, going to see the Beatles Cirque du Soleil show tomorrow, so Ryan's listening to the Beatles back catalogue this evening so he can sing along tomorrow!
We spent this morning exploring the other hotels and casinos, including the MGM Grand, New York, New York, the Bellagio (where we had our first bets - needless to say we didn't win!), Caesar's Palace and the Mirage. We also spotted the Eiffel Tower and a pyramid on our travels!
To fit with the American stereotype we went for dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe, which has a great view over the strip.
Ryan's debating jumping off the top of the Stratosphere tomorrow - any words of discouragement are more than welcome!
Hi you two,
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you made it safely and that the US was welcoming! :)
Benni says to try the roller coaster at the New York New York. Check out the Wynn - it's marble floors all over and has the most amazing lamp shades (I know that's a bit random, but they are really cool!). If Ryan is convinced to jump off the Stratosphere tower, also have a look at Fremont Street (it's around the Golden Nugget) with the funny roof.
Have a lovely time and enjoy the fountain show at the Bellagio!
Love and hugs
from Nadine and Benni
