Celine!!!

I went to see Celine Dion in Las Vegas!  Again!
There's the Celine sign!!  The day I've been anticipating forever is finally here.
I saw her twice while I was there!  Why not?  I'm in Vegas and the only reason I came was to see Celine, so why not see her twice? I went to see her by myself the first night.  I sat in the 2nd mezzanine section.  I've already seen her close up (as in MET her), and I really came to hear her beautiful voice, so I figured you can hear her from anywhere in the theater.  My seat was front row of the top section.  Good seat, but there was a railing in my way.  Lame.  And the guy sitting next to me totally invaded my space too much.  Ugh.  Go away annoying guy!  But I still really enjoyed it.  Celine was amazing as always!
 There she is!
 2 of my friends came with me.  They dropped me off the first night and did some other things they wanted to do.  (I think they rode some ferris wheel, ride... thing.  Can't remember the name of it.)  Then we enjoyed the lights of Vegas at night.  Eiffel tower!  Another thing on my bucket list.  Some day. Of course "meet Celine" and "see Celine many times" is on my bucket list.  Check.
 New York is also on my bucket list.

 We went to M&M world.

 And the Coca Cola store.

 My friends tried "Coca Cola from all over the world".  I've already done that with my girls, so I saved myself some money.  And saved my taste buds... some of those are gross and don't taste remotely like Coke!
 I had to take a picture of this hot dog place... Nathan's.  Made me think of my boy.  :)
 We stayed at the Excalibur.  It was nice and I got an awesome deal on our rooms, plus a food credit.  You know me and my love of deal finding!
 Took this picture for Michael... Dungeons and Dragons, his life.  :)
 My friends joined me for the second night concert.  We sat MUCH closer this time.  This concert was AMAZING!  Even better than the night before!  I don't know if it was the closer seats, being with friends (instead of Annoying Guy), or because Celine's husband Rene was in the audience, but this show was even better than the night before.  I didn't think that was possible.
 I loved going twice!  I wanted to just close my eyes and take in her amazing voice, trying to etch it in my brain.  Since I had seen everything the night before, I could actually close my eyes this time and just hear her voice.  Awesomeness!  It was also interesting to note the differences in the shows.  She wore a different dress, and switched up one of the songs.  She also talked to the audience more on the second night.  Definitely worth going twice!

It was an AMAZING trip!!! (How many times can I say amazing? And how many exclamation points can I use in one post?  Not enough when talking about Celine!!)  I had SO MUCH FUN with my friends and Celine!!  I wanna go back.  :)
