This little dude is a seriously demented Panda. It senses movement, touch, speech etc and tells weird hippy stories about being in space and flying up and down. He says he likes it when you play with him...
Just what every kid needs, a psycotically deluded pet to keep them quiet.
Great fun and a real laugh, can't wait to se the finished product!
Its those wacky folks at Wow Wee that are to blame, bless em, they're all quite potty you know!
They also brought us the singing Elvis head, who is nothing more than the chimpanzee head in disguise with a sound track.
They did have a remote control flying dragonfly that looks amazing.
I will add some movies of them in action when I return.

Breakfast with Envy
You know the saying "you get what you pay for"?
Its true when it comes to the breakfast buffet at the new resturant "Envy" at the Rennassance.
I've just had the best omlette in years, along with bacon, sausage and the usual suspects that come with such a meal.
Jane is enjoying her second bowl of fruit. We got a doggy bag full of muffins, bagels, Danish and fruit so we are set for the day and should have enough left over to feed the poor.
Hey, you got to get your money's worth!.
So now we are ready for our second day at the ces.
Today we are going to visit Nokia to try the new N95 and we will be meeting up with our old friend "Asimo" at the Honda stand.
We may even checkout the animated, singing Elvis head. A lot like the Billy Bass singing fish, but really does look like the king of rock and roll and could be yours for only $350.
I'll post a photo when I find it.
No great surprises as yet, but I am looking. One thing I have noticed is that the quality of products has improved greatly. Even the tat is highly finished these days.
PVP's have got smaller and will allow the user to watch movies on a device as small as a box of matches. You got to have good eyes for those.
Digital photo frames are everywhere, some have Bluetooth, others have WiFi. Capable of sucking the images directly from your phone or PC respectivley.
Right, now for some french toast and another coffee and maybe one more muffin.

Cirque du Soleil "Love"
A Beatles fan I am, but really, who isn't?
The show LOVE at the Mirage was fantastic, well worth the weeks wages it cost me. You don't often get the chance to see a show so well devised, choreographed & performed. So sod the expence (groan).
The dancers, acrobats and gymnasts were awesome and more importantly the Beatles soundtrack sounded out of this world.
All the tunes have been remixed and digitised into full 7.1 surround sound through over 6100 speakers (3 in each seat!) plus the big ones around the purpose built theatre.
No "acts" as one would expect, but an amazing trip without chemical enhancement!
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it, only to recommend it to any Beatles fan visiting Vegas.
A word of warning though, it is not the end of the world if you don't get a front seat like we did. Anywhere else will do, and for less than half the price. Though we were right next to the action, we did miss quite a bit (like watching a 100" plasma with your nose on the screen!
I'd like to congratulate eveyone involved with the show, you should be very proud.
My little girls would have loved it, ill just have to get the DVD when its release.
Verdict 10/10
PEACE MAN

Starving on the Strip.
By the time we caught a bus to the hotel, it was 3pm local time (11pm uk) and though tired, we are hungry.
The only place I wanted to be right then was the Cheesecake Factory, stuffing my face with a BBQ bacon cheeseburger (are last visit) ive waited a year for another one!
So here we are crossing the strip over to the Bellagio. that's Paris in the background.
How do we look?
