Thanks to the Formula 1 driving skill (in a mini-van) of Eric
we caught the ferry on time
Calvin on the ferry
Kevin in YVR

Friendly signs for terriosts
The sty is deforming my eye!
The sunglasses cover it well
Elvis is alive! Somehow, I always thought he was taller
Oh well, say "Cheeseburger"
Me, *stuffed* after our first buffet. This was taken at Paris
Amazing food. I had a LOT of meat here.
This was at the Hilton, where they have the "STAR TREK EXPERIENCE"
There were Klingons and Ferengi walking around. I posed with this guy (who almost looks like a wax figure in this picture) and we were supposed to yell on the count of Three. However, when "three" came up, he merely said "Ka-pla" while I started yelling my head off. This photo was snapped after he stopped, but while I'm still screaming
Left-handed Borg! I'm glad to see that they didn't forget about left-handed people like me. Now I can belong to a group too.
Wax figure of a Gorn bashing me in the head
Calvin getting choked by the same Gorn
This was taken in "Quark's Bar". Kevin ordered a "Romulan Ale". Turned out it was just regular beer with dark blue food colouring (ala St Patricks Day). I had a "Captain's Holiday" which was a pretty cool mixed drink of something - Chocolate Liquor, and something Rasberry among the ingrediants (don't remember it all)
NOTE: The blue food colouring turned Kevin's teeth and lips blue, so he's a little self conscious in this photo.
Great story with this picture. When I started talking to her, she kept in character perfectly the entire time. She had the voice and facial mannerisms down perfectly. The conversation when like this:
Me: Wow, I've always wanted my picture taken with a beautiful model. Would you mind?
Her: Ah yes. The prestige and glory of it all!
<*picture is taken*>
Her: There little human. Now your mission is complete.
The Tresure Island Free show. This is the British Frigate
At the Mirage. Note the calm waterfall behind my head.
Every 15 mins the waterfall infront of the Mirage "erupts"
White Tiger in the Mirage (where Sigfried and Roy do their thing)
Slip Sliding Away!
It was late at night, and our pool was closed. So we went across to the Flamingo, but their pool was closed too. Not that that stopped us from enjoying ourselves
Calvin reluctantly follows me down. Note that we had been drinking excessively and are not responsible for our actions (the drinks are actually visible in the upper left)
Calvin relaxes at the Flamingo (where we were not staying)
Me playing lifeguard. Mitch Buchanen, calling Mitch Buchanen, come in please.....
Calvin really wanted to be in a picture with this sign
Midway through my pure meat meal at Caesar's Palace. This was a great buffet. That T-bone steak I am eating is already half devoured (the right side of the steak is already in my tummy). Little bits of shrimp are sitting on my plate.

Dude! Rome is sweet!
The MGM Grand - The Lion Habitat
They are above me. There is a glass walkway through their habitat, and they lept up ontop of the walkway
Calvin in the corner
The Luxor. Calvin is hiding in this picture, but you can't make out who he is. He's just the white blob by the man-in-blue's head
The unactivated beacon of the Luxor
Self-explanitory
The hard to see sign under the Budweiser logo is advertising "Canadian Liquor". Wow, how foriegn!
Ah, Red Bull. Now here's something we can't get in Canada
Water jets firing in tune with music outside the Bellagio
Calvin - plowing right into the champagne
Naturally I can't let Calvin have all the fun
Glasses start piling up between us
What the hell? Now where am I going to stack this?
No Calvin. You may not drive drunk
Leaving filthy, dirty America
Ah, cloud cover. This must be over Oregon, not Nevada. 30 mins later hit massive turbulence when we flew through a thunderstorm. Turns out that it occurred over Seattle. Go figure.
