A herd of baby elephants are taking over Resorts World Las Vegas. On Memorial Day weekend, 26 life-size baby elephant statues appeared at the newest resort on the Strip.

Coincidentally, my sister Jean and her husband arrived there at the same time. Knowing my interest in large public art displays like these, Jean texted me pictures of the magnificent, colorful beasts.
Elephant Parade is the world’s largest touring public art exhibition of decorated elephant statues. Created by artists and celebrities, statues tour the world to raise awareness of elephant conservation.
The elephants will remain at Resorts World through Sept. 5. Following the exhibit, the elephants will be auctioned off to benefit elephant welfare programs. Additionally, replicas and other related products for purchase will benefit elephant welfare and conservation projects.
Elephant Parade started in 2007 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Since then, Elephant Parade visited more than 40 international cities. Two more stops for the Elephant Parade later this summer are Bristol, England, and Doetinchem, the Netherlands.

Nov 7, 2025Review: Moxy NYC Chelsea
ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: The hotel was designed to blend into the New York City landscape, specifically the Chelsea Flower District on which the property sits. The iconic neon purple Moxy sign, however, beckoned to me, where I was first met with an airy atrium paying homage to the hotel’s location with vibrant plastic flowers adorning a vintage-looking floral stand. It offered the perfect photo opportunity, and I was told the installation changes regularly. While the lobby is more of a small room with check-in desks, it’s seamless, efficient and easy to navigate. The check-in desks alone are unique, hanging by dark pipes from the ceiling, swaying ever so slightly.

In no other city are spirits and cocktails so inextricably linked than in New Orleans. Here you can sip a Vieux Carré, named for the French Quarter, while seated at a stool around the slowly revolving Carousel Bar where it was invented; or marvel at the lengthy hand-shaking required for the silky-smooth emulsification and mile-high airy foam of the Ramos Gin Fizz, an ethereal, heady drink created by Henry Ramos in 1888.
