OUR MAGICAL ADVENTURE - Day 27

Monday 13th April 2009 - Las Vegas, California
After breakfast and Jordan getting dressed and ready to go in record time (amazing what the expectation of seeing a circus will do) we were out of the RV and heading off to Circus Circus which is the hotel attached to the RV Kamp Ground.

1st stop was the Theme Park inside Circus Circus Hotel which really is a city within the hotel, complete with roller coaster! Just amazing - all this inside a hotel.....



We then went off in search of the circus which took a bit of finding but we did find it and Jordan loved it, especially the clown who entertained us before the main act (there is only 1 act per hour).

 

After the circus we headed outside toward Treasure Island which again Jordan just loved (2 big Pirate Ships). It was a nice sunny day and decided to walk along the strip not realising just how far from Circus Circus is from the centre of everything.
We found that most of the shows don’t start until later in the evening because of the lights so after visiting a couple of casino’s we hopped on the “Duece” which is a double decker bus that runs up and down the strip which gave a great view of the casino’s etc (of course we had to sit up on the top level) and also gave my poor feet which were fast developing blisters a chance to recover. Getting off the bus at the far end we explored New York, New York (Paul’s favorite because of the roller coaster) and Excalibur then started to wander back towards Circus Circus, stopping for the shows which had now started (Dancing Fountains outside Bellagio, the exploding Volcano outside the Mirage and the Eiffel Tower outside Paris) and something to eat.
 
Hollywood Boulevard complete with lighting….
What an amazing place and what a sensory smorgasboard!!
