Xmas & New years Las Vegas 2011/2012!!!! Day five

Lauren and David went off snowboarding today which left Paul and I alone to explore the Strip and do a few things Lauren and David had already done. The first thing we wanted to see was the Bodies Exhibition at the Luxor Hotel. This is an extremely interesting exhibition and is described on their website as follows;

Our Exhibitions have over 200 actual human bodies and specimens meticulously dissected and respectfully displayed, offering an unprecedented and wholly unique view into the amazing body.
Specimens in the Exhibition are prepared through a revolutionary process called polymer preservation, in which human tissue is permanently preserved using liquid silicone rubber. This process creates a specimen that will not decay, offering thousands of unique teaching possibilities for educators at all levels. Preparation time varies: a small organ may take only a week, while a full-body specimen may take up to a year to prepare. After quality preservation, specimens can last for decades.

Bascially there are a large number of bodies that have been dissected and you get to see how the different parts of a human body work/look. Very creepy but so interesting at the same time. After the exhibition we went to the MGM to look at the lions. The lions go into this enclosure every few hours and play in there. Unfortunately when we saw them they were just sleeping!

Cuddle time!

Tonight we had booked to see Holly Madison who is in a show called the Peep Show. I think this is the night Paul looked forward to the most! Holly Madison is one of the girls who use to be Hugh Hefner's girlfriend and they starred in a reality show called the Girls of the Playboy Mansion. After the show we met up with Lauren and David and went to a club called Koi where we were entitled to free drinks until the early hours of the morning, an offer we definitely took up!

Paul looking rather happy!
