Viva Las Vegas!

Review: Las Vegas Nevada
Visited August 2013
Population :1,951,269
 
What can I say about the city of sin?!
The first thing you will notice when you exit the airport doors is 'it's a bit hot isn't it'
Coming from a Brit it's not something i'm particularly used to!. It's defiantly a dry heat, I visited Las Vegas in mid August and the temperature was 39c, which is around 102F. This is a very vibrant and energetic city, that comes alive at night, weather you want to sun bathe by the pool or gamble the night away in one the casinos there is something for everyone visiting!. Having said that, it's defiantly not somewhere I would bring children. Of course you do see them there, but the hotels have a very strict no under 21's policy in them, and there really is not a lot for children. Now I must admit I'm not particularly into gambling, but you have to have a go in Las Vegas right?
 
 
One of my highlights of the trip was watching the Bellagio fountains, this really is hard to describe just how amazing they are!. So take a welcome stop when walking the strip, and take a minute to see them. They are free to watch and are every 1/2 hour from 3pm-7pm. During the night they are every 15 minutes.
 
So what were my top attractions?
 
Nigh time helicopter trip over the strip anyone?
Awesome and, unforgettable experience.

15 minute trip $119 each

Welcome everyone!

For I am a Wanderlust:
A very strong and irresistible impulse or desire to travel the world.

I decided to create a little blog of places I have visited, or places on the bucket list.

So book a ticket and just leave....
