They want me to go with them to see the Dancing Fountains at Bellagio, and the Fremont Street Experience, but I don’t do so well at night.

All of which is Greek to me (my first & last visit to Vegas was sometime around 1982), but I'm glad you're back home and (hopefully) relaxing. Hopefully you'll feel better soon.

LoM is off visiting an old friend with whom we'd become disconnected 15+ years ago, reconnected a few weeks back when we went to the State Fair and she was directing the groups in charge of parking.

The Bellagio is a high class casino with a hugh lake in front. In that lake are fountains that are lit up at night, and are synchronized to classical music.

(My preference is still the pirate fight at Treasure Island, where the captain goes down with the ship.)

The Fremont Street Experience took about four years to build. It’s a light-canopy that covers about four blocks of Fremont street, closing it to all but pedestrian traffic.

At night, the lights are prgrammed to show computer images that race up and down the canopy, from jet planes to dancers. At the east end of it is a two-block long Neon Museum.

It’s worth it to see it all, but only if you have lots of time.

And feel really good...
