Wonderful Husband's birthday is next month, and he would quite like to see "O," so we are in the planning stages of a trip to Las Vegas. Drive out Friday night, drive back Sunday night. Traffic all the way!
Since one show will not fill a day and a half, and neither of us are that enamored of gambling, or of the cigarette smoke that permeates everything in the casinos, we are looking for other things to fill the time. I know there's a fabulous shop there where cosplayers get feathers; I need to find the name and hours and address.
Being me, and being into the things I'm into, I suggested we tour Hoover Dam. I was not expecting Wonderful Husband to perk up and also think that was a nifty idea. (He knows the source of my interest; he reminded me that Megatron was no longer there.)
We're debating whether or not to see a second show while we're there, and whether or not it should be a second Cirque show if so. Also, where to stay! Last time we were there (10+ years ago) we stayed at the Golden Nugget. This time, he wants to stay on the Strip itself. I have vetoed the Luxor because I remember being in it and just being on the ground level induced mild panic in me. There are very few buildings that make me acrophobic; in thirty-mumble years, I've only been in three. The Luxor was one.
Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions for our getaway weekend?
