The Robiltons

Well, it's not exactly the first place you think of when someone says "family holiday" - but it was the site of daddy's conference, so Henry and I went along for the ride. Henry was terrific, and loved it - he was great on the airplane and he loved all the people-watching opportunities. On elevators and on the street he would study the face of a stranger and then break into a big smile and wait for the person to notice him and smile back - and often they did! Since it got dark at about 6:30 pm we did see the lights on the Strip. We spent our days walking the Strip and shopping in the malls (including a fabulous Carter's outlet store - we love Carter's!). When daddy had some downtime we took Henry for his first swim in the pool at our hotel - The Flamingo. The water was a bit cool so we didn't stay in very long. We visited "Paris" and "Venice" (both fake with a capital K) and visited the tiger at the Mirage and the fish at the Forum. We watched the water ballet in the fountains at the Bellagio and we bought some souvenirs at the M&M store. And we watched the rain storm at the Alladin and the volcano erupt at the Mirage.
