The next day, after a good night's sleep and a (ahem) time-share presentation to earn cheap show tickets, we rented a car and headed to the Hoover Dam. It was truly a sight to behold and the weather was perfect. We also walked part-way over the "new" bridge to get a better glimpse of the Hoover Dam.
| Pretty view from the hotel we were "held hostage" at for the time share presentation. The view wasn't so pretty afterwards... |
| Caesar's Palace - where we ran and bought our tickets that were our "reward" for the time share presentation. |

| On our way to Hoover Dam. We actually saw some big horn sheep on our way too!! The pictures we took just don't show them well, but I promise we saw them! |
| The view of Lake Mead was so spectacular that even these two decided to take pictures. |
| Lake Mead! It was a gorgeous blue set against the drab desert colors. |
| Smashing pennies for the boys (this is something we always do with them, and always photograph) |
