Our last night in Las Vegas was a perect end to the trip. We had a great dinner at Maggiano’s and then headed to Treasure Island for the Cirque Du Soleil show. We arrived early and had some time to waste. We played some video poker and came out $7 ahead. Then it was showtime…and it did not disappoint. The skill, strength, and flexibility of the performers were amazing. We were shocked to see what they could do. Given the chance, we would definitely go to another show. Erin’s favorite part was the entertainer who messed with the audience before the show and produced laughs throughout the show. We went to bed around 1 am and had to wake up at 5am to head to the airport. The return of the rental car was surprisingly smooth and easy. We had been worried the damage to the vehicle slowing the process down. The flight home was uneventful. We had another nonstop flight from Vegas to Fort Lauderdale, so we were definitely ready to get off the plane. We are on our way back to Tallahassee right now and thinking about what an amazing trip we had. We feel so blessed that we were able to go on a long vacation to celebrate Jason’s graduation…but now it’s back to the real world.
