Today on our last day in Las Vegas we did something different and went to the Siegfried and Roy Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage hotel. Watching the dolphins play with their trainers was amazing but most cute were these 11 week old white tiger cubs.

Anything goes in Vegas, so as we were a bit late getting up this morning we rather naughtily had Chinese noodles for breakfast and they came with fortune cookies. My message was the top one and a couple of hours later I won 56 dollars on the slot machines! Stephen's was the bottom one and he's still waiting for some luck on the slots...

We've spent the last couple of days visiting the many themed hotels in Vegas, but I think this one, the Excalibur, must win the prize for the craziest facade that wouldn't look out of place at Disneyland! Other bizarre things we've seen include a giant sphinx, a pirate show, animated fountains and a miniature Eiffel Tower. Las Vegas truly is the home of the weird, wacky and wonderful!

It's 12.20am, so I think this can count as a new day for blogging purposes. We've been in Las Vegas for approximately 7 hours and I'm very excited to have already won some money on the slot machines!
