Next morning we decided to explore Las Vegas. First up were Luxor and Mandalay Bay which we had not seen before. Luxor was a bit seedy; Mandalay Bay was much nicer and had an interesting wave pool. There was a new hotel complex at Las Vegas City Center (Vdara, Cosmopolitan and Aria). We explored Aria, but it was not too interesting. There was a very high end shopping mall outside the hotel called Crystal. Beautiful, but deserted. I guess the prices are too high for the hoi polloi. It is apparently designed by Daniel Libeskind. After a buffet lunch at the Bellagio, we were bored and headed over to Lake Mead. The temperatures were exceeding 100F and after a brief walk over the dam, we headed back to the airport and back to Seattle.
