Las Vegas 2005: Walking the strip

Category: Vacation, Las Vegas — Ian C. @ 6:56 pm

Today we drove to my favourite hotel, the Bellagio; one of its many fabulous features is a beautiful conservatory, today full of flowering bulbs:

From the Bellagio we walked past Caesars Palace, which has added a new section to its “forum” shops, with curved escalators and a nicely painted ceiling:

Past Caesars Palace we arrived at the Mirage, and paid to go in to Siegfried & Roy’s Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat; I caught this picture of a dolphin leaping & spinning out of the water:

There are also lions and white tigers there:

From the Mirage we used the new Las Vegas tram system and eventually made our way back to the Bellagio (where the car was); there we found another new thing - a chocolate fountain(!):

(the shop also had great cakes)

Here is a 1MByte Quicktime video of the Chocolate Fountain
