Since I wanted to see what the Cirque du soleil was all about and once we almost made it to the show but got there 5 minutes late, I made sure this time would happen. I booked a flight with hotel for 2 nights the 3 and 4 of January 2013. We stayed at the Mirage. I remember it being a nice hotel but I can tell it has seen its better days. It's fine but not a 5 star. I got many calls from our children and grandchildren. Cristi and family were in Thailand many hours difference. I also received over 100 greetings from facebook friends. It is amazing how many people you don't even know take the time to congratulate you on your birthday. In Vegas, what do you do if you are a Mormon? walk, shop and eat! That's what we did and it was great! Daniel bought me a Pandora braselet, when I pointed to it, he didn't even know they existed. We went to the Cheese Factory to use a gift certificate we got from Brooks and Cristi. I doubt I'll ever be back to Vegas for anything since New York, Boise, Buenos Aires, San Salvador, Montevideo, Miami, Omaha, and Dallas await us.
