Outdoor World and Friends


Battle Bots display








Whitney and Rob were kind enough to meet us for dinner.  Miss these two!

 

Easter Music and the Spoken Word

We all like to attend Music and the Spoken Word when passing
thru SLC.  It's thrilling to hear the choir and orchestra live and 
interesting to see the workings of the show that you aren't able to
see on TV.

We like sitting on the balcony and by chance sat next to the spouse of
a member of the choir.  He told us things about being in the choir that we didn't know and said that he attended choir performances as often as he could.


 

Two Birthdays at Fuji Teppanyaki

Yum-yum sauce!


Nicomi and Kimo dancing for their birthday brownie-
neither of them look thrilled about it.

 



Our chef scared the kids at our table!

Seven Magic Mountains

Love these vibrant colors against the beautiful sky!

Trying to make it look like eating an ice cream cone.


Last year when we visited this art, the bottom boulders had graffiti on them, but this year they look like they have been freshly painted.






 

Vegas Bellagio-Thanks, Tom!

Tom treated us to a stay at The Bellagio Hotel.
We stayed here once before and learned some lessons,
such as, don't touch the drinks and snacks provided in
the room.  Sensors are in placed so that if you touch or move 
the snacks, you are charged for them!  Crazy!
Lovely tile work, however!

Our room had a spectacular view, but it took
for-ehhhh-ver 
to get to it down this
looooooooong
hallway.  After a full day
of walking around Vegas,
this hallway seemed so very long.

Beautiful glass art work overhead in the lobby.



View of the dancing waters from our room.
A channel on TV played music that synchronized
with the fountains and lights.


 





Taco Bell Cantina and the Donut Bar

Tom and I had our first dinner date at a Taco Bell on Guam,
so we had to visit this unique Taco Bell Cantina.
Soda drinks were "on tap" and the alcohol was served
here as well, but everything else was typical Taco Bell!



We have a Donut Bar in SD, but I'd never been to it before.
The donuts here were oh, so good!

The Pop Tart donut--inside is a real Pop Tart and additional
blueberry filling.  Not counting calories today!


Turned out our server was from SD!


 

Bellagio Conservatory

The Conservatory at the Bellagio--go big or go home!

Peacock and Koi

Had all kinds of hydrangea!

Open 24 hours, we walked around in the afternoon taking pictures and fought the crowds. Here we are early in the morning--no crowds!




 




Hershey's Chocolate World

I am a big fan of Jolly Ranchers.






 

Believe it or not, we did not purchase anything at
Hershey's Chocolate World.
