I spent the weekend flying all over the West. As we were flying over Southern Utah into Las Vegas the mountains were glowing as the sun was setting...

Best Breakfast in Las Vegas...
My favorite spot for breakfast in Las Vegas is The Original Pancake House at the Green Valley Ranch in Henderson, Nevada.
The Baked Apple Pancake is to die for!

The Jewel of the Strip {Bellagio Botanical Gardens}
Nope not talking about TriXie or the gang from "Thunder From Down Under". The REAL Jewel of Strip is the always beautiful always changing Bellagio Botanical Gardens!
140 horticulturists arrange the gardens for holidays,
chinese new year,
spring,
summer and fall.
When I was younger my dream was to live in New York City and design window displays... So when I'm on the strip I always look forward to what the seasons bring at the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens. Admission is free and the gardens are open all day everyday.

Fremont Street Experience, Las Vegas: BEWARE... HIGH THEFT AREA!!!
Over the years I've had my share of layovers in Las Vegas. I've seen everything on the strip many, many times so I thought I'd venture out and try something new. I went to Down Town Las Vegas to check out the Fremont Street Experience, a 5 block pedestrian walkway with a light and laser show on a 90 foot high canopy. I thought it was pretty cool...
until I had my phone stolen right out of my hands. Someone (in a white hoodie) came from behind me while I was videoing the show. Grabbed my phone and ran into the crowd. I talked to a security guard and learned that this happens a lot on Fremont Street. Maybe they should change the slogan in Las Vegas to "What you bring to Vegas stays in Vegas"! It was a cool show but not worth getting my phone stolen.
