Monterey to Las Vegas

To celebrate our retirement, we took a six day trip to Monterey, California and Las Vegas, Nevada. In Monterey, we walked on the beach, took the 17-mile drive in Pebble Beach, and toured the town of Carmel by the Sea, a charming little tourist town. In Las Vegas, we saw a performance of Cirque du Soleil (Ka), fantastic and unbelievable, what these people can do! We also went to Madame Tussaud's wax museum, toured the various casinos, swam in the hotel swimming pool, and just general R&R.

The photo is of the Lone Cypress on 17-mile drive in Pebble Beach.

Here is a link to the Cirque du Soleil website where you can see photos from the "Ka" performance:
