Las Vegas - Part 1 of 2

After my friends came to visit me in San Diego, we drove to Las Vegas for a quick weekend trip. None of us had been there before. We stayed at the Paris hotel.

The first thing we did was go to the top of the Eiffel Tower replica for some pics of the Las Vegas strip.

This is the Paris hotel.








Pics of the main strip.




The Bellagio hotel was across the street from the Paris.









Pics from street level.













Live lions inside the MGM Grand lobby.


Stay tuned later this week for my night pics and Bellagio fountain video.

San Diego Zoo revisted

Last week, my best friend and her boyfriend came to visit me in San Diego from the east coast. We went to the San Diego Zoo.

The koalas were the first exhibit we saw. Unfortunately, nobody let the koalas know we were coming to visit them and they slept right thru it.





A Wallaby hanging out with the sleeping Koalas.


A big hungry Grizzly Bear.







Got to see the Pandas too. One was sleeping and the other was camera shy. So Cute!




We rode a gondola across the Zoo grounds.


View of Balboa Park from the gondola.



Lions circling for mealtime.




The Koalas woke up as we were leaving the Zoo.
