Day 117 (Thursday 11/15/12)- Las Vegas, NV

 We again started our day at Circus Circus. Having a more flexible schedule we caught four shows.

The first two acts worked with silk suspended from the ceiling, dangling from it and gracefully twirling themselves in it, the third man balanced on a wire and juggled. The last act we saw was Zuma Zuma. Featured on America's Got Talent, this group of four guys was not only our favorite act but was clearly the biggest crowd pleaser. Mixing acrobatics, strength and balance they put on a great show which included flips, tricks, dancing and limbo. We even got to see them practice after their routine had ended. All the shows were incredible, Zuma Zuma merely had the best showmanship.

At the M & M company store we watched a 3-D movie of Red and Yellow on a quest to reclaim his "M" which he gambled away at the Poker tables.

Turns out we are addicted to T.V. rating and went back to CBS Studios to rate another show, even without a paycheck. The show was a sarcastic and very funny pictionary game show. We'll see if it makes it to air.

Last was Rio and their free "Show in the Sky" which was incredible, but not for the reasons some might mention. Sure women pranced in lingerie and hunky but fully clothed men danced around them. There were several shows, each with a theme- going to bed, taking a bath and of course, for the final number, leather and chains. The female singer was really good, the songs decent (vastly superior to Sirens) and the dancing adequate. The stage show, though, was not the best feature. The ceiling mounted circling mobiles that rained down Mardi Gras beads were better. And better still were the "Flair" bartenders who juggled and spun and balanced bottles and poured free shots down women's gullets. But the absolute best moment was realizing the shirtless and incredibly fit male singer was Jaymes from the Amazing Race. The boy can dance...He is a Chippendale afterall.
