This weekend, we celebrated Ian’s birthday in our favourite Captain Lord Mansion in Kennebunkport, Maine … and could not have asked for better weather! Sunday’s weather reached the mid-70s, and all weekend was a perfect time for walking and enjoying the views – including the Atlantic coast:
My tradition – to go up to the top floor of the parking lot at the airport, and take photos of the ever changing strip!
We’re flying home tomorrow, so tonight we’re back in Las Vegas; we decided to try a hotel we’d never stayed at before, the Wynn (created by Steve Wynn who also created the Bellagio). We’d been told that the Wynn rooms are better than those at the Bellagio and we thought we’d compare … but when we arrived, we were offered a “can’t refuse” chance to upgrade to a suite on the 56th floor! So yes it’s a FABULOUS room, but it’s hardly fair now to compare to the Bellagio.
The Wynn suite is very nice and big with separate living area, huge bathroom, and because it’s a suite it includes such niceties as free Internet, complimentary spa access, bath robes and slippers, and a separate “VIP” pool area!
Later … here’s the night view from our Wynn room (hard to avoid reflections though):
