While at the Bellagio....

While in Vegas for Courtney's wedding, we stopped at the Bellagio to visit the seasonal garden which was lovely. Spring flowers were everywhere and they even had a butterfly house. While walking through I was thrilled to see numerous Chihuly sculptures on display and wandered into the small gallery and gift shop. The shopkeeper was very gracious and allowed us to pose next to some of the art for photos! I picked up a new journal in my favorite green that also boasts a cover of "Float"! After that Chelsey, Patti and I went to the hotel's gallery to see the Warhol Out West exhibit where I was delighted to find "Silver Clouds" and promptly became a work of art by placing myself amid the puffs of silver. The docent seemed to enjoy my joy and exclamations of "I can't believe I'm in a Warhol" and "I'm art!" Etc. He laughed and said "Not everyone gets it or experiences it like that!"

A perfect afternoon in Vegas or anywhere for that matter. Sigh.

Once on the Bellagio site click on the link for the web cam and gallery photos. 
NOTE: There IS a time lapse for 3 different garden setups!

  1. Congratulations with your daughter!
    Did you take photos of the Warhol-Trish art? I'd love to see that. Sounds like a perfect occasion!
