I ... have barely left the Caesar's Palace complex, yet.

Bellagio is right next door! And it's super nice to walk around in it!

Yeah, I don't think I ever did leave the City Center area last time, even with the trams.

I would also like to spend some time with my paternal grandmother, beverages either tea or vodka, her choice. But first choice is always gonna be DH. Sorry, Babushka! I think she'd understand.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Ooooh, one of the first places I always visit in Vegas is Bellagio for the their amazing floral displays in the main lobby. Always a stunning treat.

I'm going to to that tomorrow! I've been in usability design conferences 8+ hours a day for almost a week and getting up way earlier than I'm used to - I'm amazed I've been with it enough to walk around this hotel.

They have a really cool bar at the Bellagio that's on the first floor (towards the back). And a chocolate fountain. And the Chihuilly (sic?) glass in the lobby.

It's unlike the other hotels I saw in Vegas in that it's really like wandering around an exceptionally large Italian villa where you happen to be a guest.

Coffee with my father. There are so many things about the war years that I never thought to ask him. After him, coffee with my father-in-law, to hear the war stories he never told his children but that he was apparently willing to tell me but I didn't think to pay as much attention as I should.

Ooh, I didn't know there was Chihuly at the Bellagio! I'll have to see that. I really like his stuff.

I'm pretty sure it's one of the biggest Chihuly pieces in the world.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

The Bellagio is stunning. I remember being particularly struck by those glass flowers on the ceiling.

The Chihuly exhibit at, shoot, was it the de Young? Somewhere in SF. Wherever it was, just the sheer mass of glass on display was amazing. It looks like the Bellagio may deliver a similar effect.
