Day 2

Momo and Mimi's plane got in late Thursday night and unfortunately was four hours late.  They were finally getting into bed in their room at the Excalibur around 2 am.  Meanwhile, over on the 13th floor we got up at 4:30.  An hour better than the first day!  To say we were on different schedules would be an understatement. 

 

Momo and Noley meet for the first time!

The Flamingo!

8 going on 16!

 

The boys loved this little nook off the beaten path.

 

Some macaws, I believe?

 

You could hold the birds if you agreed to a photo shoot with them, but then you were under no obligation to buy the photos.  A fellow tourist was like a secret bird spy and took pictures of Seth holding the birds very stealthily.  Later she approached me and texted me the pictures.  I thought it was so kind!

 

Seth's favorite was the baby hold.  Cute.

 

Later we went to Caeser's Palace, had some gelato (fav dessert from the trip!!), saw a diver in an aquarium, and watched an animatronic show (something about Atlantis).

 

The boys were especially into these big fiery scenes.

 

Then we stopped for some linner at the Rainforest Café.  I can remember two or three years ago taking the boys to a Rainforest Café in San Antonio, and Ollie was terrified.  They grow up quick!

 

 

Next we headed over to a theatre to watch the Popovitch Comedy Pet Show.  It was just up the boys' alley, tons of juggling, balancing, clowns, and lots of tricks for dogs, cats, and birds.  Then it was back to the Excalibur on the open top bus.  Here's some more sights from the bus. 

 

 

 

I think the boys were asleep by 6:15 on the second night of our Beggis adventure.  After the boys went to bed, I met up with my parents and we enjoyed ourselves at a really nice steak house.  Bummer, we didn't take any pictures!
