I was looking through my photos from summer of 2017, and saw my Vegas pictures.  I wasn’t going on my group trip that year, so I decided to go Las Vegas. My friend and helper Kay went with me, and my sister came in from Los Angeles to join us.

When I was younger, I went to see the Backstreet Boys in concert in Philly and have loved them ever since. I started to look to see where they were performing and that’s the reason I choose Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to get tickets for the Fourth of July weekend for their last show there. It was one of the Best Concerts I have ever seen. They were just as amazing as they were all those years ago… maybe even better. The stage and lighting and outfits were unbelievable. There were two big screens at each side and they showed some scenes from their past years.

The next night we decided at the last minute to check for tickets to see “Magic Mike Live.”  At First they said none available, but after checking with a manager, they found three seats in the third row. That was an unbelievable show! They gave us fake money to throw at the guys. Of course some people gave the guys real money too! It was a blast! A group of guys came up to me and danced pretty close. Channing Tatum was not there, but many other hot guys with No Shirts were! Very Cool! The audience was almost all women~ and half were screaming…it was so much fun!

I also hung out at the pool at Planet Hollywood where we stayed. There was a cool slide ~ but to risky for me.  A bunch of people were tanning and drinking and listening to the DJ. The Last show I went to was the Cirque Du Soleil~Michael Jackson One. The acrobats performed to the music of Michael Jackson. People were flying all over doing tricks on high wires. They appeared to be levitating and floating though the air. I had never seen this in person before. It was phenomenal. The only disappointment was that none of the hotels had a firework display for the 4th.  Overall it was so much fun~ I would Love to go there again!
