Lazy Sunday morning. We chatted with fellow campers from Holland, then went for a swim.
After lunch, we headed downtown but taking the bus this time. A slower means but definitely easier on our poor feet.
This time we went to the end of The Strip and visited Luxor (see photo of Egyptian Sphinx). I must say that hotel had unbelievable reproductions inside and out. Then took free monorail to Excalibur, with turrets and castle-like structure, looked more like Disneyworld. We then walked on to New York New York with replicas of landmark buildings like the Chrysler Bldg., of course the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Bldg., etc. We actually walked in and had a beer in an authentic Irish Pub. Leaving, we walked on the Brooklyn Bridge. This is all so strange when you have actually been on the real thing...
We finally got back to our campsite on a very slow bus for quick showers and dress-up so we could return and get to the Bellagio Hotel where we had tickets for the Cirque du Soleil show. We made it with 10 minutes to spare... What a show!! Nothing like we have ever seen. It was outstanding. For the price we paid for the tickets, we could have been a little closer (we forgot our binoculars) but we enjoyed it so much. It is spellbinding. This was their 6000th show! It all started here in Las Vegas in 1998. Unbelievable, and to think that Cirque du Soleil originated in Baie-Saint-Paul!!!
After the show, we headed back to the RV. We had thought of going out for dinner but everywhere was so noisy and it was too late. We had a couple of toasted tomatoe and egg sandwiches and slept like logs...
