Vegas
We decided to continue farther west to Vegas since it is so close to St. George. I am not a gambler, but it would be fun for the kids to see. We arrived just around dinner time and headed to the Bellagio. We walked around for about an hour, but the restaurants were expensive, and it was so hot outside. We headed to Henderson, where our hotel was, and got some pizza at Blaze Pizza. Addy had found this famous doughnut shop on TikTok, so when we got up on Saturday morning, we drove to the store to get some. The line was out the door and around the corner. The doughnut shop is called Cafe Lola and Saint Honore Doughnuts. Addy got the Unicorn Hot Cocoa, and I got the Unicorn Lemonade. We got our doughnuts, and they were delicious. Sadly, on the way home, the car's battery and alternator died. I was thankful that I could get it to the repair shop. My mom and the kids took an Uber into the city and got lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe while I waited for the car to be repaired. Finally, around 6:30 p.m., they finished the car. We got some dinner and drove to the Seven Magic Mountains art installation. Only a few kids left the car because the rest thought it was stupid. I can't win them all. On Sunday morning, it was time to leave; however, before heading back to Provo, Utah, we stopped at the Hoover Dam, which was fun to visit. I am glad we went, but I don't need to return to Vegas. I don't know what attracts people to go over and over again. My kids felt the same way. The only thing I was bummed about was that we didn't get to see the Neon Sign Museum. We just ran out of time because the car broke down. We stopped in St. George on the way home for dinner and swung by the St. George Temple. So pretty!

Too bad your battery and alternator gave up...
But those Seven Magic Mountains would not be worth my time.
Their color disturbs the natural environment as well.
Glad you got to see the Hoover Dam! We saw it before completion and then years later did the tour.
Hugs,
