Vegas, Baby! Kel and El

Kel and I had a great flight to Vegas. We actually had an empty seat between us! For the past few years, every flight we have been on has been packed like a can of sardines. But on this flight we could spread out and enjoy our overpriced snacks and drinks. Bob met us at the airport and then we headed out to see the town. It's not my favorite place. Saturday night it looked like a hooker convention. I've never seen so many cheeks exposed - and I'm not talking facial! Where are these people the rest of the time? Not in Northern Viriginia or D.C. K and I escaped to the Donnie and Marie Show where there were no hookers in attendance. K was definitely the youngest person in the room but she was thrilled with the show and Donnie and Marie really performed. I thought Donnie would have a heart attack trying to keep up with the young dancers. But Marie did great cardio and rarely had to catch her breath. They've been performing for 50 years!!! Yikes! Saw some great art in Vegas : Oldenburg, Henry Moore, Maya Lin. Citycenter where we stayed was built for 8 billion dollars and now it is worth $2 billion but it has some incredible sculptures, gardens and art installations with water and ice. Will try to post photos. Then we were off to the Grand Canyon.
