Scene in the City – Sky’s the Limit!

SLOT CANDY.  In LAS VEGAS even the Vending Machines have NO LIMIT.

These are the most cosmopolitan vending machines ever! And guess where we spotted them? In the lobby of the too cool for words Cosmopolitan Hotel.  These are not just for canned sodas and candy.  No way, not here.

From this vending machine you can get stuff like lipsticks,  telephoto lenses for your galaxy & I phones, limited edition Andy Warhol-Marilyn Monroe I-phone cases, and just plain bling (well not that plain). They take credit cards??

And like all the other slot machines in this town there seems to be no spending limit on these either.   I think a telephoto lens for your phone could come in handy, don’t you?

DESTINATIONS

Personal Post – Bellagio Collagio

It’s easy to get jaded fast in VEGAS and not only that but it can be overly tacky at the same time.  Two completely different contradictions.  The best and the worst of everything.  But how can you ever get tired of seeing the spectacular waterfall display at the Bellagio hotel that’s on every hour & set to music?  This one was set to “singing in the rain.” bellagio 1 bellagio 2 bellagio 3 bellagio 4 bellagio 5 bellagio 6 bellagio 7

It gets even more dramatic in the evening.  Every 15 minutes with an additional light show.

One of my favorite Vegas past times is to sit at the outdoor “Mon Ami Gabi” cafe at the Paris hotel with a glass of wine and just relax and watch the show.  That’s before hitting the casinos of course.
