Two Short Blog Posts On Four Days And Three Nights In Las Vegas, 2

Continuing our brief visit to this heart of American culture...

Strip scene
















Paris with Bellagio's fountains; playing


















Playing to the andante cantabile in D flat of Rachmaninoff's
Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini; I really wanted it to continue
through what the composer called "the creme de menthe" 24th
variation and its astonishingly amusing coda, but, alas, no such
luck; not in Las Vegas

Us at the Bellagio's garden conservatory, just before Vicki was
attacked by the giant hummingbird (she's so sweet...)


Actual real plants, too


















Now we don't have to go back to Keukenhof!


Nor Rome
























Land is so dear on the Strip this McDoo has only one
one golden arch

























Elvis pauses to reflect, maskless, near the Trevi
or some other fountain

























All in all, we thought Vegas did a fairly good job
insisting on the COVID-19 protocols; visitors, as
always, somewhat less so...
