We are back from Las Vegas and had a marvelous time. The hotel was beyond our expectations and the Viva Elvis performance was superb. It was very fast paced and the time went so quickly. The music and dance together with the acrobatics was great. My husband, Keith, is not a photographer so there are very few pictures of me to send you, so what you see is his best attempt. I have sent a couple of the Aria hotel at night and in the daytime. There is also one of the exterior of the theatre but the lights are so very low that you can’t really capture it on film. Our seats were excellent, on the first tier and almost dead center. I would highly recommend the hotel as it’s location is right between the Bellagio and the Monte Carlo so is pretty close to the best part of the strip. The buffet at the hotel was beyond belief and we understand the locals come in to the hotel just for the buffet, it is so good. The weather was about 60-65F. during the day and of course it is cooler at night and dipped to around 45F.

Keith and I can’t thank you, the Festival and Carlson Wagonlit Collingwood enough for all you did to make our stay so enjoyable. Good luck with the festival next summer…..

Regards,

Karen and Keith Faulkner
