Las Vegas Day 5

Off to the Hoover Dam today.  Took the short tour and walked around outside on the dam.  Amazing piece of engineering.  Craig would love to see it.

Water levels are low (54 feet below maximum).  It was actually hotter at the dam than in Vegas.  Did a cache on the way back in a local park in Las Vegas.  Park is like a desert ... definitely not what we are used to.

Had dinner at Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill in Caesar's palace.  Good southwest cooking.  World series ending happened while we were at dinner.  Mesa Grill overlooks the big sports book at Caesar's (sports betting hub at Vegas), so lots of cheering from over there.

Walked back to our hotel.  Saw another watershow at the Bellagio (In The Mood).  Then saw the volcano at the Mirage.  Then saw the end of the Treasure Island show from the pirate side (where the ship sinks) ... still tacky.
