Le Reve @ Wynn Hotel


What I remember (in 2024)
Went with A.
Comp tickets from the Wynn.
New show at the newly opened Wynn Hotel & Casino.  A Cirque-like show based in the water, and seating in the round (so not a bad seat in the whole theater).  Great show.  Great hotel.

San Francisco Giants vs Colorado Rockies @ AT&T Park

What I remember (in 2024)
On August 3, Trish, A & I flew to San Francisco and spent 3 (free) nights at the Hyatt at Union Square (work perks).  We did a trip out to Alcatraz and went to a Giants Game.  The Giants play at AT&T Stadium, right in downtown San Fran, on the bay.  The stadium was built with Barry Bonds in mind.  The left hander, with all his power can hit the ball out of the stadium and into the bay, where people will wait in boats and kayaks to collect the souvenir.  He did it at our game, but it was a foul ball.


Colorado 2 (Matt Halliday, Choo Freeman home runs) defeated San Francisco 1 (Omar Vizguel home run) in 11 innings.
Crowd: 39,014
