My wife and I went down and checked in for the Blog World Expo that begins tomorrow morning. We met up with a couple of friends and fellow bloggers from Denver, Brad and Jeannine. After we registered, all four of us met up for a bite to eat and at some drinks around 4pm.

Betsi and I headed back over to the Monorail station at the convention center around 5:15pm. We were trying to get back to Bally’s to get dressed and head over to pick up our tickets to Zumanity at Will Call by 6:30.

When we went to the Monorail station, the train was sitting with the doors open. A bit unusual we thought. We boarded and sat there for about 20 minutes before the train left the station.

The train arrived at the Imperial Palace stop. One stop before Bally’s. We were told everyone heading south needed to get off as the northbound side was shut down. The North bound train malfunctioned and was shut down until it could be repaired. Both directions would run from one side…  north fist then south.

Anyway, there was no way to get to New New York in time for the show. We were disappointed as we have seen other Cirque du soleil shows and loved them. I wanted to to review the show for you. Oh well, another time.

Tomorrow, I will attend the Blog World Expo and Betsi will hang out at the hotel and shop.

Getting ready to head out to Blog World Expo in Vegas today. I hope to develop some good contacts from the blogging world and learn a few new things. Hugh Hewitt will be hosting his radio show from at the convention center. I would like to get a chance to meet him. 

We will be staying a Bally’s, one of our favorites hotels. We got pretty decent prices on the airfare on Southwest since our last trip in February. Southwest made a gamble on jet fuel futures when it cost a few bucks a gallon. Their gamble is paying off by keeping their fares low and no baggage fees.

We’ll probably check out a few shows this trip. We really liked Momma Mia the last time we were there, so we are thinking about going again. 

The Vegas-n-more blog is coming along slowly but surely. I have the site up and hosted by WestHost.com. I ordered a couple of books on Word Press and have start pouring through them. The two books are WordPress Complete and WordPress 2.

Since purchasing the books I have been able to start making some regular posts and I am been able to start manipulating the appearance of the site. My next task is to start publicizing the site so that others beside my friends and family can find this blog. I’ll be back…

I’ve been on a bit of a break from this blog since my last post and trip to Vegas. I hope to have more up soon..pics, etc.. I am new to blogging and just received some blogging technical manuals in the mail and plan to spruce up this site a bit. So, stayed tuned.
