Thursday February 26 Las Vegas and KA at the MGM

After eating too much at the Brunch buffet in Excalibur Hotel and finally signing up for free gambling bucks we headed out for the Cirque de Soleil show that was highly recommended; Ka. Ka stands for Fire in Japanese. We dressed for the occasion in t-shirts that we had previously purchased for the event. As we sat spellbound in our speaker loaded chairs the multiple stages moved sideways, upside down, on end, on their sides as the acrobatic actors portrayed a legend and a love story. Each scene became progressively more amazing than the last. The costumes, the props, the stunts and the acting were astounding. This show is by far one of the best Cirque Shows on the planet and Patsy has seen a few including “O” which is hard to surpass.

Later that night we travelled to downtown Las Vegas to view the famous Fremont Street LED experience. This Vegas signature attraction on the pedestrian promenade has Viva vision, the largest LED screen in the world, coupled with one of the biggest audio systems at 550,000 watts. We also had a Vegas experience in a little historic Vegas Casino where we had breakfast at 1:30 am. When we tried to continue our evening on Fremont Street the bars had lights like cafeterias. What was that?? We know Fremont Street is famous for lighting but by then we knew it was time for sleeping.
