Videos

This afternoon I video’ed a Fountains of Bellagio performance from down on the strip, the way that most people see it; again I replaced the noisy street audio with the original soundtrack …

As watched from our room on the 23rd floor …

I added the original music and did my best to align it, since the sound quality captured from the TV was not good!

Our first trip to Las Vegas for a few years, and now it’s ok to take pictures during the flight! Much of our flight was over incredible, empty, America – especially the second leg of the flight from Dallas to Las Vegas. I put together a little video, including the landing:

Or if you prefer, pictures:

Much of the flight had views like this, empty landscapes that were clearly formed by a long ago ocean, or by huge rivers – it’s easy to see “coastline”; and then an occasional town, sparsely populated; and an occasional highway (very few vehicles though). We also saw the very bright shine of the solar power plant in Ivanpah, CA.

We’d booked a room at the Venetian, but got transferred to the sister Palazzo because of noise in our first room; this also moved us up to the 44th floor, which offered great night views!
