Las Vegas Trips

Year What we did  
2008

Jeanne, Mark, Beth & Pat Troy.  We stay at Treasure Island.

On Saturday we rented a poolside cabanna and enjoyed spending the day watching football.  While soda was free and kept cold in the mini-fridge, drinks were expensive.  In fact, a fifth of whisky would have cost over $250.  Fortunately, Pat realized this ahead of time and we smuggled in our own booze. 

  • Blue Man Group
  • Chicago (the band)
  • Santana
  • Liberace Mueseum

We had a great dinner at Rio including a terrific chocolate souffle.  We also tried the Vietnamese restaurant at TI and were disappointed.

2006

Jeanne, Mark, Beth & Pat Troy.  We stay at Treasure Island and again we think they have the best pool on the strip. 

  • Ray Romano (hilarious)
  • Celine Dion (incredible voice)

Absolutely fabulous time with some of the best food and fun ever.

2005

Jeanne & Mark stay at Treasure Island.  We have a tremendous time!  They have the best pool area on the strip.

  • Mystique
  • Wayne Brady.  a tremendous improvisational show
2004

Jeanne and Mark take a get-away in Las Vegas. We stay at the Aladin, which has since been changed to Planet Hollywood.  We see some great shows:

  • Earth, Wind & Fire
  • Gladys Knight
  • "We Will Rock You"- a Queen inspired musical. 

We also learn to play several new games together and have a tremendous time.

2002

Jeanne and Mark take a get-away in Las Vegas.  We stay at Bally's (older, but huge rooms).  We see some awesome shows and sites:

  • Hoover Dam
  • Valley of Fire
  • Blue Man Group
  • Penn and Teller
  • Andre Phillipe (an amazing vocal impressionist)

 We fall in love with Vegas and can't wait to go back.
