penguin chick pictureHI EVERYBODY!!

A couple of years ago, Phil and Angie visited a place called Las Vegas. Mom says some people call it Lost Wages, but I don't know what that's all about, cause penguins don't get paid. Maybe we need a better union! Anyway, this year, they went back there to celebrate Angie's 38th birthday. Looks like they had a high ole time.

See you later.

Four lads from Liverpool once made quite a stir.
It's been 40 years plus, the time's been a blur!
You can now go to Vegas, and watch from above,
'Cause Cirque du Soleil has The Beatles, with LOVE!

Happy Birthday Angie!

From the Eiffel Tower, we got a unique view of Vegas. To learn more, click the pic!
The Bellagio's fountain works.. waiting to go live.
Swinging and swaying...
to and fro!
A little jiggle here and there.
Spouting a bit as well.
Maybe a crown?
A hint of what's next?
Probably one of the Fountain's signature shots.
A bloomin' onion, eh fountain?
Two things about the fountain shows: They are never quite the same, and NOT really on a schedule!
Hard to believe that McCarren Airport is THIS close!
The Mirage, the home of why we came.
LOVE awaits ahead.
If New York is the city that never sleeps..
then Las Vegas is the city that's never finished!
Just a couple weeks before we left, the Monte Carlo had a fire on the top floors.
We discovered the damage was bad enough to close the whole place!
Nothing is forever.
Fremont St, AKA the "old" strip, is now a semi-enclosed mall.
Las Vegas Club, one of the older casinos in town.
Phil showing his winnings!
