I'm not much of a gambler in any case, but with my daughter with me, I'm unlikely to get close to it because she can't.  The last time we were here with her, I couldn't even walk anywhere close to the slot machines with her.


 

I love this smiley.

I definitely want to see the Eiffel Tower replica that's here and the fountains at the Bellagio.  Also, I want to go to Fry's to get a new battery for my laptop since mine is no longer working at all.  Maybe we'll see the amusement park at Circus Circus this time, too. 

This hotel has two bedrooms in addition to the living area, and a Japanese restaurant across the street, which is cool.

My husband tried to talk me into getting married here when we got married sixteen years ago, but I said no thanks and we got married at the church I grew up in.  He was hoping to avoid the blood test because he hates needles and Nevada doesn't require them.

Blood test for getting married?


Hope you have lots of fun in Vegas.

In my state the blood test determines if there is Rh incompatability before pregnancy.  An old hold-over from the more sexually restrained days when you got married first and then had kids.

A first cousin of mine was born mentally retarded, we were told from blood incompatibility. Louise was cool, she remembered everyone's birthday and sent cards every year. She got cancer and died a few years ago. 

Sorry about youir cousin.

You're welcome. I haven't lost anyone close to me at all, I know that is lucky.

My family is very small...no grandparents, no aunts or uncles (that we met anyway), few cousins!

I have about 2 dozen first cousins on each side and lots of aunts and uncles.

Aha, you were there not long ago, right? Do you look after them while the family goes off and does stuff at their holiday house?

Yes I do, I have been the nanny for this little pack since about 1996 (obviously I have said sad farewells to some over the years,
and welcomed a number of new puppies)!

Half-scale Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas:



Here is the Eiffel Tower replica in the daytime:



Welcome back, Matthe.

The blood tests in Alabama tested for STDs, I believe.  They were outdated and I don't think they are required anymore.

Do they have tours in the tower?
