The Bellagio is famous for its water show that plays every 15 minutes on most nights from 8pm to 12am in Las Vegas. Each one is different, I was watching for almost 2 hours and didn't see the same show twice. Next door is the Caesar's Palace - both are fun casinos to visit.
According to MGM's website and Wikipedia: Bellagio is a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in the Paradise area of unincorporated Clark County, Nevada, USA and a member of The Leading Hotels of the World. It is owned by MGM Resorts International and was built on the site of the demolished Dunes hotel and casino.
Inspired by the Lake Como resort of Bellagio in Italy, Bellagio is famed for its elegance. One of its most notable features is an 8-acre (3.2 ha) lake between the building and the Strip, which houses the Fountains of Bellagio, a large dancing water fountain synchronized to music.
The fountains are set in a 9-acre 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 million to build. The fountains were created by WET, a design firm specializing in inventive fountains and architectural water features.
If you are ever in Vegas, spend the .50 and go to the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Bring your tripod and a camera lens with a barrel diameter of less than 58mm. There is a metal screen that has several holes cut out of it for photographers - but it's a tight fit.

Yep, That's What It Says

This has to top the list of business names and questionable signs. But, it's a legitimate business. We had a couple of meals there. I have some more photos to share a bit later from Big Dick's Halfway Inn.
