Our Final View of Las Vegas

As I have mentioned before, I get to experience a lot of fun things for free because of my job. I recently went to a grand opening party for Stars and Stripes Air Tours and they gave every attendee a free Strip Helicopter Tour pass for two. So two days before we leave Las Vegas, we decided to use our pass. I was really excited, but once we got into the helicopter, I was so scared. When the pilot takes off and lands it feels like a car sliding on ice, but then after that it is smooth sailing or should I say flying.

We were lucky enough to be able to sit in the front seat with the pilot and had a great view!
This is the back (right to left) of Paris, Bally's and the Flamingo. Across the strip you can see Bellagio and Cesear's Palace.

This is where it all started for Vegas, what is now called the Fremont Street area. Near the bottom of this photo, across from the blue light, is where "Fremont Street" is located.
Another Photo of the Las Vegas Strip.
... And Another...
In this photo you get a really good view of Las Vegas Blvd. or "The Strip".

This is Goodbye and Farewell to Las Vegas!
We will miss many things, but are excited to be moving on to another adventure.

You guys are spoiled little brats! But we are still sooooo excited you are coming to see us! We have been telling Bentley and Myla that their friends Buddy and Bandit will be here any day. I don't think they really care :)
