HEADED HOME

After an adventurous few days, it was time to head back home to Daddy and Chubs.

I was equipped with my Alaska Airlines replica, which was admired by the flight attendants.

Thanks for a fun visit, Nana and Papa!

THE STRIP

I’ve had a lot of energy lately, so before we headed out for our final day in Nevada, I went outside to run around Nana and Papa’s neighborhood.

Then we went to the Las Vegas Strip to go up the Eiffel Tower.

This is the view when you look straight down!

Then we continued down Las Vegas Boulevard and encountered my favorite part of Vegas – the pedestrian walkways!

The M&M’s store was…okay. But…

…it had four floors of escalators. So it was a win!

CACTUS GARDEN AND LAKE MEAD

Nana and Papa thought I’d like to go to the Cactus Garden at Ethel M’s Chocolate Factory because you can see a whole bunch of planes fly right over head. And they were right!

Then we made a return to Lake Mead to see the ducks, coots, seagulls, and carp.

As you can see, I was Mr. Popularity among the hungry birds.

HIGH ROLLER

If you cross an aerial tram with a ferris wheel, you get the Vegas High Roller.

LOW RIDER

Before the snow came, I pulled out the bike that Miss Danni loaned me for a little ride. I think I’m just about ready for the one Grandma and Grandpa gave me. Just need a few more outings to get the feel of it.

I wanted to stand on this big sewer thingy and have Mommy take a picture.

FANNO CREEK

A boring morning at the auto glass place turned into a surprise awesome find – a previously unknown creek and bridge! I ran to and across it a whole bunch of times.
