Las Vegas, Nevada

We had a quick lounge around the pool because today there were 2 weddings that we were very lucky to attend.  The first wedding was for Eowanna and Lenny, and was held at the gazebo at the Flamingo Hotel & Casino.  The setting was beautiful.  The bride and groom had all the women wearing white Elvis scarves and all of the men wore Elvis glasses and sideburns.  It was quite a fun crowed.  We then raced over to Las Vegas Garden of Love and witnessed the wedding for Scott and Jane.

We got back to the house and then had our first swim in the new pool.  It was lovely.  Allison then made us a fabulous steak dinner which we enjoyed in the gazebo.  Darren headed off to work and we unpacked some more boxes.

When we booked our trip to Las Vegas, I found out/remembered that Bon Jovi was going to be playing at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in honor of the Hard Rock’s 10th Anniversary.  Once we arrived in Las Vegas, I called the Hard Rock every day seeing if they were going to release additional tickets since the concert was sold out.  In the end, I wasn’t able to get tickets.  But we decided that we would drive by and see if we could see anything because I knew that the concert was outside.  We were driving down Paradise Road (in Allison’s Sebring convertible) and all of a sudden we could hear the band.  As we got closer, we could see that we could actually see the stage, mind you it was from behind.  I jumped out of the car, grabbed my camera and staked out a small piece of land and enjoyed the last half hour of the concert.  I heard “Bad Medicine”, “Shout”, “Who Says You Can’t Go Home” (new song from upcoming album) and “Twist And Shout”.  We headed back to the house after the concert and unpacked some more boxes.
