- Forgot to mention this one. When we arrived at Las Vegas, we were asked to please remain at our seats, even though the seatbelt sign was off and the door was open. We figured there was someone who needed assistance that they wanted to get off the plane first, or there was some sort of medical emergency back in Coach. Instead two LVPD officers got on the plan and headed to the back. After a minute or so, they came back up front and said the flight crew and gate staff standing around in the galley "Nope...it's not the guy." and off the plane they and us went. Most unusual...
- We saw Cirque du Soleil's Love. It was the most incredible thing ever. Visually stunning, and of course fabulous music, set, and costumes. I was so moved at parts, that I admit, I got a little choked up and teary eyed. I can't wait until we can go back and see it again. One thing we've been wondering - what happens under the big bed sheet during “Within You, Without You”? Anyone?
- After our room to-do upon check-in, Shiny was told by the manager that they would comp the room upgrade. So before heading to bed we checked at the front desk we wanted to make sure this was taken care of. Satisfied that it was, we headed upstairs. This morning when checking out, we were told the upgrade charge was still on the bill, so we explained the situation to the desk clerk who took care of it. What we didn't know was that not only did they refund us the upgrade charge, but comped us our first night stay as well.
- We didn't gamble once, we had a total of two beers over the weekend, and tragically only spotted one Trekkie.
- We suffer through a timeshare spiel and came out of it not with a lifetime of vacation dreams, but $100 cold hard cash and a free resort weekend.
- When Av came home he ran down the hall and jumped in my lap giving me the biggest hug ever. Then he ran over and gave Shiny a giant one as well. Being away was great, but coming home to him was pretty great too.
