Into the Stratosphere

Leisurely walk down to Starbucks for breakfast. Even I would kill for a bowl of cereal and that is saying something! Back to hotel and waited for airport shuttle. Couple of hours wait in airport with crazy seating and boarding procedures. As you check in everyone is given a boarding number and that is how you get allocated seats. Still we got there and even saw the Golden Gate Bridge and some lovely views of the Rockies covered in snow.

Landed in Las Vegas to about 95 degrees but it was not too bad. Caught the airport transfer bus and saw around a lot of the casinos etc. eventually got to the Stratosphere and booked in- what a process. Girl on desk asked if Australia was in Europe!!!  Quickly went to room to get changed and Tony discovered his case lock had been removed and his bag repacked.  At least there was a note from the security company.

Grabbed a taxi and headed off to The Mirage to pick up our Cirque de Soleil tickets. Looked at some of the resort areas and then decided to grab something to eat, but American food is so off putting. Everything tastes sweet, even the bread in sandwiches.

The Beatles "Love" performance was fantastic - thanks boys!!!  Lots of great Beatles songs with circus and acrobatic interpretation. Walked back to hotel along the strip.
