Taxi picked us up this morning and took us to Tucson Airport for our flight to Las Vagas. The flight took about an hour and we had to put our phones back an hour on arrival. We picked up a cab to take us to the New York New York Hotel in Las Vagas. We couldn't believe our eyes when we arrived. The hotel is a replica of various famous places in New York. The reception floor is also the casino with various eating places,pubs, shops and swimming pool. There are 17 floors with a huge roller coaster at the top. The rooms were not available until 3pm so we checked our luggage in and went for a walk down the strip. We were amazed at what we saw amazing hotels loads of flashing lights and advertisements people dressed up as Disney characters, buskers, down and outs asking for help. Hugh flashy trucks and cars. Models having photo shoots. Men and women handing out cards for sex bars...
We returned to the hotel and booked up for a show for tonight that had been recommended to us a Cirque du Soleil show called Love based on Beatles Music. We had lunch in The Irish Pub in the hotel the staff were really friendly. Checked into our comfy rooms and decided to go exploring more of the strip.
We walked a bit further down the strip and found Belagio!s what a fantastic hotel beautiful fountains and amazing oriental interior later in the evening we watched an amazing water display accompanied by beautiful water.Saw Ceasors Palace, Hard Rock Cafe and amazing shops and advertisements!
Back at hotel got ready for show. We got the bus, you buy a ticket for 24 hours. It was fun everyone was so friendly.
The show was amazing fantastic circus performers and the way they had used the Beatles music with the special effects was beautiful. Was quite emotional when pictures came up of John,Paul,George and Ringo.
Caught the bus back the strip looks fantastic at night with all the lights on.
Alan and June went to bed but Claire and John and Nick and I had a wander around the casino. We found a bar where they have duelling pianos different people play them. it was great we went in and listened and had a dance.
