Thank you for sharing your memories, and wakening some of my own. It's a trite line, I know, but despite all that changes, "we'll always have Paris." In fact, maybe that's 'because' and not 'despite.'

Some great memories. My wife and I head there in 3 weeks for the first time in over 25 years. We are so looking forward to it. Thank you.

It's a great piece, PortMoresby! It made me feel nostalgic for a city I never knew back then. Beautifully illustrated.

Great post! Love the photos and sense of memory....

Great Blog PortMoresby! You captured how Paris has stayed that magical place and brought back memories for me of great times.

I'm old enough to remember the Vegas Years, although was too young at the time to go see Elvis in Vegas. Fans always commented that Elvis was at his best in Vegas -- relaxed, chatty (talking to the crowd a lot), and despite it's large size, it was a fairly intimate performance venue with lots of direct audience contact. (Watch the video all the way to the end to see the audience) The statue was unveiled by Barron Hilton just outside the showroom where Elvis performed, and it stood there for...

DrFumblefinger: I really appreciate your feedback and extra information you provided in the above comment. As Elvis would say "Thank you. Thank you very much. Your a beautiful audience. Thank you."

Wow! What a great exhibition. All you need is LOVE!

DrFumblefinger shares night-time images taken in Las Vegas in 1983. It was a smaller and simpler place to visit then.

PortMoresby spends a week in Paris, walking and reflecting on her first time there, 6 months working 6 days a week and living in a room in Montmartre.

Samantha's not too fond of crowds, so she likes to head for Laughlin: not as big or as crowded as Las Vegas, but with lots of attractions—and a real river.

Golden memories indeed ! The James Bond car chase takes me back too. I've already done my Picture of the Day ready for tomorrow. Can't get too much Vegas !

This is a wonderful post. Great pictures. I passed just south of here a couple of summers ago, but I did get to Oatman AZ. See my blog post here . I look forward to getting back to Laughlin and to Vegas.

Great article! Laughlin really is so different from Vegas and if you can call any spot with gambling, slow paced, Laughlin is it.

Samantha and her husband had a nice time checking out the Casino de Monte-Carlo while in the area.
