Is This Thing On?

Kitten and I got back from Vegas on Sunday and now I need a vacation from our vacation! Thursday, we got off of the plane, grabbed a bite to eat and then went to see the show that Kitten picked out. Blue Man Group! I've seen them before, but this time we had tickets in the second row. If you go see Blue Man, get seats as close as possible. I've never gotten as many laughs out of it as I did this time. By the time the show was over, we were all laughed out and exhausted. It was 2 a.m. my time and 3 a.m. Kitten's time. We practically passed out.
Friday morning, we finally woke up and went over to get discount tickets for the next two nights. Kitten wanted to see a Cirque du Soleil show and all they had were tickets for Zumanity and Love. Since I had seen Love last year, we settled on Zumanity. Again on the second row! See it if you haven't, but see it with somebody you love. It definitely puts you in the mood for some freaky freaky! We had planned on creating our own mood, but due to an accident involving water and a pair of battery operated underwear, our plans didn't work out like we had hoped. Zumanity managed to make up for it. I completely skipped over the fact that we spent he entire day at the pool sipping Red Stripes and soaking up sun. All and all, Friday was a fantastic day.
Saturday began at the pool again. Heineken this time. We roasted all day, people watched and got snookered. After having dinner at a nice french restaurant (mmmm.......escargot) we went to see the show that we picked out the day before. I had first seen Cheap Trick almost 25 years ago and now they were in Vegas performing the Beatles! They played Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band in it's entirety with a few extra Beatles tunes thrown in at the end and then wrapped the whole thing up with their own hits. It was a fantastic show and Kitten managed to catch quite a few of the paper hearts that showered the crowd at the end.
We got back to Nashville pretty early on Sunday, picked up my dogs and bathed them. Sunday night was spent just enjoying each other and then Monday Kitten went home. Soon it will be my home too, but more on that later. As for now? Viva Las Vegas!

Did my suggested location to grab discount tix help? Or did you find another place that you would recommend?

We used the place you told us about. It was right where you said it was. Saved us about forty percent on tickets, but you had to go with what they had so we went to Zumanity even tho I really wanted to see "O".

I've seen "O" listed there, but it's a rare thing and it sells out quickly. Regular "O" tix are like $150 each. Crazy.
