(PHOTO: Jim W. at the Venetian!)We just returned from a 3 day vacation in Las Vegas with our friends Jeff and Gary. It was a good time, although we hated being away from our great dogs Dolly and Franklin. Despite the daily high temps of 107F, we managed to do a lot of walking and touring.
We enjoyed Bette Midler's bawdy show, and got to meet our old friend Jim Williams (no relation to Tom) who moved to Vegas some years ago. It's always a fun time with Jim.
We saw "Comedy Pet Theatre" where you will REALLY see cats doing tricks! - We loved the 3 dachshunds doing tricks, too, as they reminded us of Franklin back home.
The Hoover Dam Tour (35 miles outside of Vegas) was well worth it- really interesting!! - We had a funny tour guide, too, who loved punning on "Dam" - like "we have to go through the dam security gate...get your dam souvenirs before you come back to the bus, etc." Funny!
We enjoyed the great gardens at the Belagio, and their dancing fountains. A walking tour of the Italian hotel the Venetian was fun, too. We could only stand about 40 minutes out at the pool. 107 degreess was too hot to handle! It's well worth the trip - and we only wagered $1.00 each, and I lost mine while Tom won his back!
