Hi. Welcome to my blog. There are many things I want to do. But hopefully, as I go through this crazy world we live in, they say the internet allows millions of people worldwide to interact with each other. I have no intentions of reaching that many, but you never know. Let's see where this journey goes. If it makes a difference in your life, then the journey would be complete.
Last Sept.16-Oct.01,2010 six days after our wedding my husband and I flew heading to Dallas,Texas for his Simuflite Training. We had a lot of fun and that was still part of our honeymoon. Most newly wed couple from other places
the world come to Vegas for honeymoon, but since we are living here in Las Vegas we need other place rather than Vegas just for a "Change". Going to Dallas,Texas at that time was a good deal because my husbands company paid everything, our Hotel and foods and car
. It was fun flying together on the plane with my husband as a newly wed couple. We stayed at Embassy Suit Hotel in Dallas and it was a very nice hotel. My husband spend most of the day on his simuflite training and one time he took me there in the building where his training was.

THE FOUNTAINS OF BELLAGIO- is a vast, choreographed water feature with performances set to light and music. The performances take place in front of the Bellagio hotel and are visible from numerous vantage points on the Strip, both from the street and neighboring structures. The show takes place every 30 minutes in the afternoons and early evenings, and every 15 minutes from 8 p.m. to midnight. Before a water show starts, the nozzles break the water surface and the lights illuminating the hotel tower turn to a purple hue (usually), or red-white-and-blue for certain music. Shows may be cancelled without warning because of wind, although shows usually run with less power in face of wind. A single show may be skipped to avoid interference with a planned event. The fountain display is choreographed to various pieces of music, including songs by Andrea Bocelli, Frank Sinatra, and Gene Kelly.
The fountains are set in a 9-acre (3.6 ha) manmade lake. Contrary to urban myth, the lake is not filled with treated greywater from the hotel. The lake is actually serviced by a freshwater well that was drilled decades prior to irrigate a golf course that previously existed on the site. The fountains actually use less water than irrigating the golf course did.They incorporate a network of pipes with more than 1,200 nozzles that make it possible to stage fountain displays coordinated with more than 4,500 lights. It is estimated that the fountains cost $40 million to build. The fountains were created by WET, a design firm specializing in inventive fountains and architectural water features.
