Time to Check out the Strip

With less than a week to go before we leave Las Vegas we decided we better get on with checking out more of the strip. Tonight we visited Tropicana, MGM, Paris and Bally’s. We arrived at the Tropicana in time to see their free show “Airplay”. It consisted of 3 acts over the main casino floor. The first act was a young woman who could make hula hoops do anything — I think she had six hula hoops going at once, three on her waist, one on a leg and two on one arm. The next act was a young woman and man who did some pretty amazing acrobatic moves. The last act was 2 young men who did some pretty amazing moves suspended from straps on the ceiling. At the MGM we saw the three young lions and two men playing with balls — very cute (I think the men were there to keep the lions active). The wall behind the front desk in the lobby in the MGM hotel was a fish tank — I bet they get fewer irate customers! They also had a beautiful garden just off the lobby. The Paris casino is easily found as it has a replica of the Eiffel Tower that can be seen from quite far away. The inside of the casino is made to look like Paris — does this mean I can check Paris off my list of places to visit? (Sorry Ed, nope). At Bally’s we stopped for a few minutes to enjoy some live entertainment.
