Best Smelling Place in Vegas

When I was in Vegas, I wanted to see as much of the strip as I could. It was awesome going around and seeing the casinos that are referred to on tv, in movies, or books. My aunt and uncle have been a few times and they recommended that I go see the Bellagio fountains - particularly at night.

Saturday we thought to take a break from the slots and take advantage of the nice weather, so we walked down the strip and saw some of the sites. These casinos are AWESOME. I do want to let you know that "the strip" is much longer than I expected and the road is much busier. You can't just cross from one side to the other. A local informed us that many people get hit who are visiting because they do not understand the importance of waiting for walk signal. But anyway, the fountains were super fun. We saw them during the day and at night after our dinner at Paris. (I have a short video clip, but of course, a fire truck or something came by and I still can't figure out how to edit sound clips with Floyd. But when I do, I will be posting some videos :) )



One of the girls wanted to see the glass flowers that are in the Bellagio. We went in. The ceilings were beautiful. They also had some gorgeous upside-down paracols that hung in the hallways. My favorite part was the indoor gardens. It smelled wonderful in there. No traces of cigarette smoke. We didn't want to have to leave there. I mean it was also super fun. They even made a snail out of flowers - it was wicked cute!



I have become addicted to taking pictures of blossoms up close. I hope you enjoy them :)
