A chance to visit our Colorado family proved an irresistible opportunity to experience from here to there in depth. The easy drive to Las Vegas beached us on a strip that in the last forty years had metamorphosed into the Odysseus’ Land of the Lotus Eaters. Shop and spend, gamble and risk or immerse yourself in food and show–Disneyland for adults–a controlled fantasy environment that is totally self-absorbed. That said, we thoroughly enjoyed the Cirque Du Soleil “O,” their aquatic tapistry of acrobats, synchronized swimmers and divers at their permanent venue in the Bellagio as well as two spectacular meals. For two days we wandered and gawked in complete amazement. When we left, we did not need to be strapped to the seats of our car or the mast of the boat.
