I Know My Way Around Here

Whew! What a weekend, a whirlwind it did seem like ! Pipo arrived friday night for a visit, his first one here since I moved. It was nice to see him, even though I just saw him about three weeks ago back East. It felt great having someone with me here, away from my daily routine with family. Well, Pipo is family also, but in a different way of course. So we picked him up at the airport on Friday, and since we got access to an automobile, Pipo and I proceeded to go to the strip. And you know what? I impressed myself because I realized I kind of know my way around here a lot more than I thought I did.  I mean, I now know how to get to the strip ! It is really quite easy, because the whole area is basically a box. All you need to know is what street comes after next both horizontally and vertically, and realize the streets go north and south, or east to west. It really is kinda like NYC. So Friday night. We ended up at Aria, because Pipo said he wanted to check out the newer hotels. Incidentally, it was also my first time there, and thought it was a very sophisticated hotel. We then crossed through the City Center and ended up, somewhat, at the Bellagio. They had the Spring Flower show and it was a pleasant surprise to end up there. Pictorials abound, of course.
