Advantages: FUN
Disadvantages: VERY HOT, VERY BUSY
Las Vegas, where do i begin.
I was in San Diego for a 3 week long holiday and we went to Vegas from there.
I absolutely loved it and everything about it, though i will say this. 3 days was more than enough for me.
We stayed in New York New York. This hotel was absolutely fantastic it was right on the strip and right in the centre of the action. It had everything you could possibly want from a hotel and the price was excellent, while not able to remember exactly i believe the price was in around 70 dollars a night for us both and the rooms were out of this world.
People think of Las Vegas as being for gambling only, i think on my experience that whilst vegas is all based on gambling, you dont have to make this the purpose of your holiday. On the three days i spent there we spent our time going around all the different hotels and casinos and simply taking in the atmosphere and seeing the delight of them all. We spent very little time in the casinos and when we did it was simply on the 5 cent machines were we could have a laugh without losing any real money.
The weather was fantastic, very very hot and our hotel had fantastic pool if you wanted a few hours lounging around there.
There is so much choice in the selection of food and restaurants and i found that like anywhere you can have cheapish places to eat as well as more expensive.
There are also shopping outlets not far off the main strip with great bargains and savings to be had.
There are also a range of trips to the grand canyon and helicopter rides over vegas at night if you want that little bit extra from your holiday.
All in all i have to say i loved vegas. There is lots to do and see and you dont have to spend all your time gambling. You can get away with spending as little money as you please and still have a nice time. You can make the holiday as expensive or inexpensive as you please.
The weather is fabulous, the hotels are fabulous and the atmospher is equally fabulous.
I do feel however that 3 or 4 days is enough to spend in it to get the feeling and enjoy the fun. People also say its tackey, and yes it is but in a fun way and for those 3 days i let my hair down and enjoyed all the fun and tackiness as it was a once in a lifetime trip.
Take my advice, take a few days there i dont think you will regret it and it isnt as pricey as you are led believe.
Summary: GREAT FOR A FEW DAYS FUN
