Off to LV! bright and early Sunday morning
The entrance to the Luxor is through the Sphinx (of course)
Inside the pyramid, it's all open...
all the way up to the apex
Checked in and ready to go!

around back |
the swimming pool |
which was heated (thank goodness) |
Inside there were moving walkways over to the Excalibur (next door)
|
|

First thing Monday morning we were off to the Hoover Dam. |
It's 1200 feet down there! |
Intake tubes that drive the... |
generators deep inside. |
Overflow... |
which goes down a big whole and through the mountain |
Mountain goats spotted along the way
|
Next was New York,... |
The Statue of Liberty,... |
|
|
|
and the MGM Grand with its lions |
note two adorable boys right behind the glass |
At Circus Circus, the indoor Pleasuredome had a bungee trampoline

Jonathon |

The view from atop... |
The Stratosphere |
The Mirage |
had a bubbling volcano |
that exploded every 15 minutes! |
|
|
|
and set the waters afire |
(back to normal) |
|
|
|
Inside they had a lame white tiger exhibit (compared to the MGM lions)
|
and Treasure Island had an awesome pirate fight!
(remains of British ship seen here)
