Periodically Karen volunteers to watch Baby Kayla so her parents can get a much needed break. But, secretly, Karen really enjoys Kayla.

We stayed here -- it was a bit expensive -- but hey, we're worth it!


The weather looks great but it was HOT!


Some interesting details around the hotel.


Arc de Triomphe -- looks like the real thing -- I think.


Karen with the Blue Man Group.


Next stop -- the Venetian.


Saw this at the Venetian -- no cameras were allowed, so this is all you get. The set was very cleverly done. It was an abbreviated version but they included all the songs -- a little pricey though.


The main square at the Venetian -- where all the action is...


The fake sky everyone gets to enjoy year-round.


Loading up tourists for the short canal ride -- oh yeah, they do serenade you too!


There was even live musicians playing classical music.


Scenes of Vegas at night...


The Paris Hotel is next to Bally's.


A better look of the "Eiffel Tower" at night.


Of course, we had to see the "fountains" at Belagio. The photo doesn't do it justice though.

We walked over to Cesar's Palace to check out the Forum Shops. This is the lobby of the hotel.


This was a fancy restaurant (Trevi) inside the Forum Shops that looks like you're outside. We didn't eat here though...


Peter Max Gallery displayed some of his art work (for sale too, if you can afford it).


This giant wooden horse was in front of FAO Schwarz toy store.


Today is our last day and we thought we'd have one more buffet at the Prim Valley Resorts. Afterwards, we walked around the outlet shops...
