I forgot the best part of our trip to Vegas: The moving statues at the Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace! From what I gather, Atlantis fell because an animatronic blond Xena bickered with a vaguely ethnic animatronic Eskimo type in front of their animatronic father. There was a lot of dry ice, fire, flashing lights, and plexiglass ice crystals. Then a big dragon popped up behind dad, Atlantis fell, and all the “Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln” puppets descended back into the mall floor, leaving us with only the Cheesecake Factory.

If only I had bothered to take a picture…
