My family and I wanted to check out the holiday decorations...and so did at least 1,000 other people. Now as a special treat, you get to pay for parking at the MGM properties, of which Bellagio is a part of. But if you can get in and out in under an hour, it's free. By some miracle we found parking. We shuffled in and tried not to get run over by the large masses of people. We took pictures...we got stepped on...and we escaped with our lives.
The holiday decorations were nice but very familiar looking. I went through my pictures from last year's decorations and guess what...they are the same. If they are different, it's not by much. I'm very disappointed. Had I known that, I would have just looked at last years pics and saved the headache. We made it out in under an hour and didn't have to pay for parking. I'd still come to see the gardens here but not during Christmas. Seeing the same arrangement twice is enough for me.
