More Vegas!

Today was low key, wandering around, taking it in...this late afternoon we ended up back at the Wynn, where we got a late snack and treats, then went to go see Le Reve, one of the shows that runs all the time there.  It was AWESOME.  Acrobatics, synchronized swimming, diving, all kinds of crazy stunts performed to music, with the underlying theme that what you're seeing is someone's dream.  I was very impressed with the athletes who participated--their strength and abilities were superb.


After the show, we went to dinner at a very upscale restaurant at the Wynn: Bartolotta di Mere...it was already very late, but Vegas never sleeps!  This meal was crazy!  It was a seafood restaurant, but on a fine dining scale I've literally never seen...multiple courses and choices within each.  Delicious (for the most part) food.  Every single offering in all the courses had some kind of seafood in it, many I've never eaten before.  We ate sea robin, scallops, squid ink infused risotto, amberjack, sardines, a whole red snapper flown in that day, and other things I can't even remember!  It was FABULOUS food, and the company was even better.

After dinner we went out to the strip, and saw the fountains at the Bellaggio, and their musical accompaniment for the last show at 12:15 AM.  Then we wandered into the gardens inside the Bellaggio, themed for Chinese New Year, and finally were tired enough to be done for the day!
