Day 2 in USA at Shania Twain Concert Las Vegas

As we walked into Caesar's Palace this afternoon in readiness for our 7.30pm Shania Twain concert, I commented to Murray that it was hard to believe that this was only our second day in the US of A, yet here we were fronting up with our friends to a concert in Las Vegas. Mind boggling! As we entered the Forum Shops in Caesar's Palace I noticed Spago's Restaurant, which is one of Wolfgang Puck's and where we had a dinner with my brother Tony, his wife Yudian, my sister Ret and our aunt Dympna on our last visit here. Lovely memories. Then my eye was taken by Jimmy Choo's, so I thought it was high time I bought myself a pair of his shoes. The red ones were fabulous, but then I really liked the green ones...in the end I couldn't decide, so I walked out without buying a single pair. Oh well, thankfully I was quickly distracted by the Apple store - funny, I hadn't noticed it here before. It reminded me that my sister Rosemary recently sent me a photo of the Apple store near her home in Brisbane, so I took a photo just for her.

It turns out that our seats for Shania Twain were on Mezzanine Level One, in a 'Box'. Never had a Box before. We felt pretty privileged. We had no one behind us, and the seats in front were separated by a wooden railing. We had a great view of the stage, and Shania is as good, if not better than ever. She has an amazing voice, and I have to say she looks absolutely fantastic. Go Shania! After her concert finished we walked out in perfect time to catch the Bellagio water fountain display on our way to our shuttle.
Sorry, no purchase today Mr Choo...

For you Rose - I think our stores at home have more vibes!

We weren't allowed to take photos so thanks for these two photos Google...
This outfit looked great. Shania was terrific!

We got the free shuttle back to our apartment, and after a game of Rummikub (yes AD, I taught Rainie to play last night and she has asked me to pack it for our overnight trip tomorrow!) it was time to hit the hay. Off to Death Valley tomorrow morning.
