Surrounded by thousands of tulips, it definitely feels like spring! There were tourists here from all over the world - we heard German, French, Japanese and Russian spoken. Everyone was taking photos of each other - no translation required... not sure we'll see anything like this in Vegas!
Wow - it's a good one. For those of you familiar with Vegas, the green building on the left is the MGM and the gold one in the right foreground is the Wynn. You can see the Eiffel tower of Paris!! Best yet, it's clear most nights, so we can actually enjoy this view!
Taking in the fabulous view from the Voodoo Lounge atop the Rio...and deciding whether or not we want to have Sin City as our home base in the future. Vegas is constantly reinventing itself, with the next new hotel, show, headliner - and now condos. Who knows? Do you think anyone will come to visit us there - maybe before a plane ride in the Eclipse 500?!
March 31 was opening day - and the coldest in Seattle since 1967. Here is the color guard next to a giant flag unfurled on the field while the National Anthem was played. That alone was enough cause for goosebumps... but so was the snow that started in the 5th inning. We were thrilled that the M's pulled off a victory against the Texas Rangers, and that someone had the forethought to design this stadium with a retractable roof!
P.S. We skipped all the traffic mess and walked about a mile and a half from our condo to get to the game :)
