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.
They were so fuzzy (along with being animated) they seemed lifelike.
A fantastic gingerbread village (that used 600 pounds of chocolate) filled the center section of the area, along with a huge rocking horse.
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.
Seriously – how could you see this funny guy and not smile!
