The kids went to church with Oma and Opa. In the afternoon they went to Flagstaff Aquaplex. The kids were very perplexed about swimming inside and not having to wear sunscreen. They had a fun time even though the water was cold.

Sunday-going to Las Vegas
I like the cloud shadows on the mountains.
We never noticed how mountainous the area around Kingman is.
Lake Mead.
Boulder city. I took the first picture over a wall that I could not see over so I had no idea what was on the other side. The second picture is an interesting building across from the gas station.
The beginning of the strip and its traffic. We should have gone a different way.
The bus next to us had an advertisement for M&M World.
We were originally at the Flamingo hotel but due to plumbing issues they moved us to Planet Hollywood. We got a very nice upgrade. It was a strip view room (you could see half of the Bellagio fountains) and we got a food and beverage credit. I really liked the bathtub and enjoyed a bubble bath everyday. We had the Batman Forever room.
Our room also overlooked the pools.
Bellagio tower at sunset.
We met up with Bernard and Mandy who also were in Las Vegas for dinner at Rockin Taco. Then we took a walk through the Bellagio gardens.
Glass sculpture in the Bellagio.
My postcard picture of our hotel. The Paris hotel.
Bellagio fountain show. I could watch this all the time.
The lights in the lobby of our hotel. They hand place all the crystal strands at night.
Our home for 5 nights.

Next Vacation
After we were home from California for 4 days we headed out for our next vacation. Nate and Ellie were going to camp and Eve was hanging out with Oma in Flagstaff. Paul and I went to Las Vegas.
Stormy is telling us he doesn’t want us to leave.
We had a lot of fun finding things in the clouds on the way to Flagstaff.
Mt. Elden view from the credit union drive thru.
The kids and Oma were creating Kool-Aid ice cubes to dye yarn with. Ellie accidently turned herself a little green.
Saturday afternoon we went to see Despicable Me 2 in 3D.
Eating at Some Burros with our burro ears.
