We sleep in a bit, have our coffee, and then pack a few last things before hitting the road north to Vegas. Its about a 5 hour drive in the Jeep so we pulled out around 9:30am. We arrive just before 3pm at the MGM Grand hotel to secure the furthest room from check in. We shlepped our bags a quarter mile to our room and Yoli took a nap, I made a quick loop on the strip. Our room was farthest from the registration desk, but absolutely the closest to the strip. A quick trip from the 8th floor to street level put us just less than a one minute walk to the boulevard. We had tickets to see two shows, Cirque du Soleil "O" at thge Bellagio the first night, and David Copperfield at the MGM Grand the second night. We ate dinner at Gordon Ramsey's Burger one night, it was good too. The "O" show was great, I had seen it 10+ years ago and it was just as entertaining. It was Yoli's first Cirque du Soleil performance. We also stopped to see the Bellagio dancing fountains, pretty cool. Next night we enjoyed the magic of David Copperfield, and we got a lot of power walking and shopping done on the strip as well between shows.
