We took a quick group tour to Las Vegas, mainly to see The Wizard of Oz at the Sphere. It was a bus trip, only two nights and one full day in Las Vegas.It was raining as we left Los Angeles, but it stayed dry in Las Vegas and when we returned. We stayed at Paris Hotel and Casino, and had good views of the Eiffel Tower and, across the street, the Fountains of Bellagio.
In our short free time, we walked two blocks to view some of the art at Aria's Shops at Crystals. It was easy to see the Turrell work and the Treehouse Restaurant (see the photos) and a few others, but the Halo water feature I was looking forward to was not operating. Here's someone else's 40-second video of that.
Getting the bus parked and getting to our seats at the Sphere was a minor ordeal, but I did enjoy the re-mastered, AI-enhanced film on the 160,000 sq. ft. screen, complete with immersive multisensory effects like tornado wind, scents, moving seats, flying monkeys, and falling "leaves" and "apples". An apple fell right in my lap (see the photos).
