Our last day in Las Vegas.

When we woke this morning, the weather was the same as it had been all week here in Las Vegas- cloudless blue sky, with a bit of a chill in the air.

Once we were up and ready we ventured off for our last trip into the strip.  We parked in the Luxor carpark and walked into the casino.  Bry and the girls were keen to head to the Titanic exhibit being held here but we were a little early for it so we decided to catch the tram to Mandalay Bay for a look.
Our quick walk through...no stopping here

Loved the sock shop!
We had a very quick walk through and then walked back to the Luxor via the connecting walkway.

Lauren was particularly impressed with the way the Luxor was decorated.
 




Lauren telling us to renew our vows...yeah right
 
 
Bry and the girls headed to the Titanic exhibit while Mum and I put a couple of dollars in the machines.  We came out fairly even.  Apparently the Titanic exhibit was amazing.  Unfortunately you weren't allowed to take any photos, but like any great tourist, Bry bought the ones they took of him and the girls :)

We jumped back in the car and headed to the other end of the strip to visit our last casino- the Venetian/ Palazzo.  It was just stunning, and HUGE!!!! We got ourselves completely lost, not realising that there were 2 casinos in 1.  These places are as big as shopping malls.

This man made a fabulous statue...I don't think he even blinked

With the Operetta performers


Inside the foodhall in the casino- there are also restaurants and shops all through as well
 
By now we had had enough of the Strip, so we bid it farewell and headed to have a look at Red Rock where Bry went mountainbiking yesterday.  What a beautiful place.  Unfortunately the sun  was beginning to set so it was quite a quick visit.

Here's a picture I forgot to add last night.  It's of Tay colouring in her Cliffs at Peace Canyon t-shirt with fabric markers.
Lots of fun.
We've just finished packing up our suitcases...tomorrow we're off to Palm Springs for the night.
