Las Vegas November 2006

Our last part of the vacation was Las Vegas. This time we stayed in the Luxor, which was a great experience. We stayed in the pyramid itself, so the widows "ran" with the shape of the pyramid. Really cool. The lifts also run sideways and are called "inclinators". Really weird at first, especially after a drink or two...
Luxor's sphinx. which is on the way to the tram.

This was the inside of the Bellagio, decorated for Autumn. It was a garden out of pumkins and all kinds of plants.

We went for a ride in the gondula in the Venice, while our "gonduleer" sang to us in italian.

We spend one evening at the "Tournament of Kings" at the Excalibur. It's a great show with knights and wizards. The dinner is eaten with your fingers! No knifes or forks! The tables are lined all around the arena. The show was really great. We sat at the "Russian" table (yep-obviously I picked that one!) and our Russian knight did well to represent us. They get the audience all involved in the medieval traditions. Really cool.

And eventually the sad day came and we had to bid our friends farewell.

Until we meet again....
