Weeeee're Back!!!

Back from beautiful, sunny Las Vegas.  It was a wonderful trip.  Unfortunately, I did not return with more money than I left with, as it the case, I believe, with most people who venture out for a little fun.  Rather than planning on returning with mounds of cash, I spend time planning on setting my limit on what I will lose.  Once that limit has been reached, it's time to find something else to entertain myself with other than the casino.

As you know we stayed at the Wynn Resort which is absolutely beautiful.  You couldn't ask for more beautiful accomodations.  For an Interior Designer and Gardener like myself, it is absolute eye candy.  You are just overwhelmed with all the different colors and textures used and the architecture.  Here are a few pictures of the resort.


This is the main walkway through the casino after you enter.  Table games to the left, slots to the right.  I'm a slots player. 



This is a restaurant called Parosal Down.  Such a fun place.  Parasol Down is a cocktail bar.  Parasol Up is the Lounge/Restaurant.  Both are very colorful and have stunning views on the Lake of Dreams.  Notice the curving escalator.  I still haven't figured out how someone could design and implement a curving escalator.



Another shot of Parasol Down seating area.  Really an amazing space.




These two pictures give you a look at the inlaid floors.  Just beautiful.  The whole space is over-the-top as you would expect in Las Vegas.  I will post more pictures from the trip over the next couple of days.
