This is my entry for The Teleidoscope's theme of Light and Dark.
It was kind of easy for me to think in terms of light and dark over the last week, once the sun dips behind the mountains in Nevada, it is replaced not by darkness but by even more light, lights of every colour and size and movement. It was certainly a sensory overload.
I'm slowly trying to arrange my Las Vegas photos and while I do have enough to stay on track for my 365 project, I'm posting them a bit out of order....oh well, Las Vegas is supposed to be a little crazy right?
So many things happened over the last week, I'll try to list the big ones:
- first flight delayed at the last second due to "leaky landing gear" waited 5 extra hours but ended up with $200 vouchers for future flights
- saw The Lion King on stage and got goosebumps from the beginning to the end.
- watched Snooki from Jersey Shore try to make it through a mob of people to LAX nightclub
- won $130 playing roulette for the first time
- went to the opening night of Celine Dion's new show and had our seats upgraded to FRONT ROW, had many lingering moments of eye contact with her as she sung.
- got to meet and have a great conversation with Rosie O'Donnell before Celine's show.
- Drank green beer with a friend from Ireland on St.Patrick's Day
- had an inner Top Chef Geek moment when I went shopping at the Whole Foods from the Vegas season.
- Met and took jumping photos with
SpunkyMonQy (not to mention taking a crazy cab ride to see the Las Vegas sign)
- went for a nice long run up and down the length of the strip early enough not to get swallowed up in the crowds.
*whew!* Now I'm off to make coffee and take today's new photo!
