Viva Las Vegas!

After breakfast on Thursday, John and I went separate directions. I headed for the pool and he joined the guys in search of some good black jack tables. Most of the ladies headed for spa treatments and Mickey went exploring. The ladies all rejoined for lunch and shopping at Nordstrom's all afternoon.

We had dinner at an Italian restaurant at the MGM Grand before seeing the Cirque du Soleill production "KA'". It was awesome! I don't know how to describe it in this space. Of course they had the acrobats, dancing, sword fights, and then there was this stage that rotated up so that it became a vertical wall with pegs to climb up, but then the pegs would disappear and the climbers would fall or catch another peg. Later in the show the actors flew on wires in front of the vertical wall.

We, again, stayed up late to do some gambling.

Three couples headed back to Sedalia Friday morning. The rest of us hung out at the gaming tables or explored the casino's offerings like a museum and shops. This evening we had dinner with former Sedalians who are living in Las Vegas now. When we got back to the resort, John let me join him at a black jack table and I left a winner! I know when to hold em' and when to fold 'em . . . HA!
