The Bellagio

Captain Cavedweller and I were in Las Vegas all last week.

It was warm, sunny and absolutely wonderful.

We came back to cold, fog, spitting snow and more cold.

I think I’m ready to go back.

While in Vegas, we took in a lot of  holiday decorations. I think my favorites were at The Bellagio in the Conservatory.

There were hundreds of gorgeous poinsettias. I especially liked these ruffled beauties.

And penguins.

But my most favorite, favorite decoration was the polar bears.

They were made of white mums and absolutely amazing!

Not only were they huge and impressive, they were kept fresh daily by a team that pulled out any wilted flowers and replaced them.

She Who Loved The Polar Bears!
