13th October - Las Vegas

We had arranged to meet up with Kathy and Warren, our friends from Elgin, IL in Vegas. One of the shows we were going to see was Le Reve (The Dream) which as it turned out was at the Wynn.

Well, hello...who else was also going to be at the Wynn - Hilary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, both Democrats running for the Presidential ticket. As you can imagine, there were a lot of men and women in black suits looking very serious.

My sentiments exactly...onya mate!! However in defence of some politicians, some of them do start out with altruistic values which are very promptly squashed as they have to toe the Party line if they want to run with the pack.

We thought parking was going to be a nightmare but surprisingly, it was quite painless once we negotiated around the TV vans, cop cars etc.

Absolutely stunning...the foyer of Wynn. A glorious display of floral pinatas! 

Mind you, we paid for all of this in the price of food and drinks. A glass of  Proseco was US$15 here when it was only US$10 at the Luxor. Don't forget you have to add taxes and tips on top. Also a lot of eye candy...the waitresses were dressed quite provocatively, they obviously make enough in tips to get manufactured boobies.

Simply classy...one of the loveliest Vegas hotels we've been in and no wonder - Wynn is a 5 star casino and resort with 2,716 rooms. It holds a string of awards and is one of the finest hotel/resort/casino in the world. It even has an automatic window washing system.

Warren did a great job of getting us Premier seats...we had our own tv monitor which televised the below water action. We had such a great time with them and what a treat to see them twice on this trip!

A must see show if you are in Vegas...Le Reve had us captivated from the start with its never ending display of synchronised swimming, acrobatics, trapeze artists. It must take its toll on the performers being in the water every night...no wonder all the male performers were bald. Kathy said dancing must make them bald when she saw the photos of the male dancers in the Souvenir Program!

Forget the musical fountains at the Bellagio...the ever changing waterscape of this show is breathtaking. Watch the video below and enjoy.
