A quick look at the (now enhanced) Goal List has us scoring very low in terms of Completion, but we still classify this trip as an unmitigated success.
Okay, partially unmitigated. My feet bailed on day two, and we began to prioritize based on goals, needs and possibilities. Thank you, LV Regional District for opting into a monorail; expensive as it was, it proved crucial to a hobbling guy looking twice his (advanced) age.
The Cirque du Soleil's "O" performance was amazing. The view of the stage from the 17th row was excellent, (giving a field of view eclipsed by four outstretched hands, pinky to thumb, at arm's length) and the divers, the dancers, the clowns and the acrobats performed one astounding feat after another for hours. And how a guy can be on fire for 5 minutes without horrible burns is unbelievable.
In the end, we left the city having had our fill, having had too much, but also wanting much and more still.
Oh. And some scotch at the duty-free.
Special thanks for the lovely surprise in our hotel room. After a very confusing romp through what must have been the entirety of the resort property, and feeling completely puny and insignificant, here we are presented with something that made us feel like freakin' rock stars. Thanks for that. And we popped the cork and dined like Caesar himself.

Pictures are trash. Maybe 2 usable. Just so you know. We are definitely breaking out the real cameras next time.
Glad you had a great time. Bubbly is named properly--lifts the spirits and makes one feel, oh, bubbly!!
