January 19

We woke up with plans to go hiking at Red Rock Canyon. But first we sat through a timeshare presentation to get free tickets to a Cirque du Soleil show. We knew we wanted to do a Vegas show, but when we saw that even the discounted tickets were about $100 per person, we decided we would sit through a timeshare schpeel. It sucked. But we scored free tickets.

 This was the car we drove in all week. Clay had a rental that he and his co-workers drove out into the Nevada desert. They had alot of rain the first couple of days and this mud was caked onto the Suburban. It made it easy to find in the parking garages (we did eventually get it washed).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 We enjoyed a hike in Red Rock Canyon. This is 15 minutes outside of Vegas. This is the one place we visited that I would have taken the kids to. They would have had fun climbing the rocks and seeing the crazy plants/cacti. When the sun sets in Vegas, it seems to set quickly and the temperature drops even quicker.

 

 We saw The Beatles LOVE show. I don't think it had as many dare-devilish stunts Cirque du Soleil is known for, so Clay didn't like it as much as I did. The music was great, the dancing and stunts were great. It was very entertaining.
