Today we slept in, ate breakfast at a French restaurant, and then went shopping at the Stranger Things store and the shops inside the Venetian. There is something so fun and exciting about the indoor shopping area at the Venetian. We found a quaint little Italian restaurant and ate lunch there. After feeling pretty tired from so much walking we headed back to the Bellagio and spent some time lounging around the pool and eating gelato. As day turned to night we got dressed up and walked with the other crowds of people toward the Sphere to see the U2 concert. This is the band I grew up listening to and has been one of my favorites for a long time. I never thought I would be able to see them in person. The venue at the new Sphere in Las Vegas was unreal. The music was nostalgic, the visuals out of this world, and for as old as they are now, they still sounded pretty dang good! The opening was spectacular, but my favorite part of the entire concert was actually the last couple of songs. They sang their classic songs, "Where the Streets Have No Name," "With or Without You," and "Beautiful Day." It was the best closing to any concert I have been to. Mike took me on a weekend getaway to Vegas with surprises around every corner. The only thing I knew coming into this weekend was that we would be going to the U2 concert on Saturday at the Sphere. What I didn’t realize was that Mike arranged for much more than that. With a surprise visit from my parents for dinner at the Lago and then a surprise show to see Adele, Mike really outdid himself this time. We spent the day shopping and eating an amazing brunch before getting ready for a fun evening. When we walked into the Lago I turned the corner and saw my parents and was so surprised. I loved spending time with my parents, celebrating my mom's 75th birthday, and watching the water show at the Bellagio from the restaurant. Afterwards, we said goodbye to my parents and headed to the Adele concert. I had no idea we were seeing Adele until we got there. I thought we were seeing a completely different show. This was hands down the BEST concert I have ever seen and the best surprise ever! Adele is amazing, beautiful, kind, a complete entertainer and so incredibly funny and personable. This was an experience I will never forget. shopping and eatingdinner at the lagobellagio conservatory & botanical gardensadele concert |
