More Vegas Fun!

Vegas not only has spectacular buildings with replicas of monuments and other buildings around the world, but it also has great 'sights' inside their hotels.  ;)

Here in the MGM Hotel are real lions literally living inside the lobby!

 Inside of the Bellagio Hotel, the lobby was just breath taking.  I loved it.  I could have sat there for hours admiring the creativity and beauty.

 If you could only smell these pictures!  :)  It smelled like a fresh cinnamon-apple pie.

 All of the flowers were fresh, and just smelled awesome!

This was a talking tree, and his face moved.  Really Cool.

These blown glass flowers were so amazing.  As you walk into the hotel, this is right above your head,  each one a little different from the next.

 Also in the Bellagio was this Guiness World Record holder!  It is the largest CHOCOLATE fountain in the world! (It went way up to the top of the ceiling!)  YUM.....

 Me.  OH.  MY!
The bakery also had these gorgeously, unbelievable cakes on display.

 No, it is not an egg.  It is a cake!

Outside the Bellagio, we were right on time for the fountain show.  I was covered in chills, and even the kids enjoyed it.  It is hard to explain, in words, what this show is like.  You honestly have to see it, to appreciate it.  :)

The next day we went to a FREE chocolate factory in town that makes M&M, Mars, Snickers and Dove chocolates.  :)

 It was a nice operation, but it was VERY short and sweet.  (no pun intended!)  :)

 They did give free samples which was nice.  :)

One of the highlights in Vegas was visiting the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop!  Unfortunately, we did not see the guys that are on the tv show, but we met some of the other employees, and they were very knowledgeable and friendly.

 We saw SO many interesting things for sale in the shop, like swords, paintings by Picasso, a baseball signed by Babe Ruth, himself, and even a New England Patriots Super Bowl ring for $100,000!!
Can you imagine!?
There were people every where.  It was crazy-busy, but fun.  :)

What a crew!
