Las Vegas

Impressions of a Las Vegas vacation Les mer
  • Hitting the Street

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 52 °F

    Since there wasn't anything going on in the Paris Las Vegas, I decided to go outside and see if things were picking up out on the Strip. If anything, it was even less crowded than it was before. I've never seen it so quiet here! I'm still trying to decide if I like it or not.Les mer

  • The Eiffel Tower

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 52 °F

    There wasn't anything going on outside but I did get a great view of the Paris Las Vegas Eiffel Tower. An icon of the Las Vegas skyline, this high-altitude attraction has an observation deck 46 stories up and is a half scale replica of the world-famous Paris, France landmark.Les mer

  • Paris Las Vegas

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 52 °F

    I have to say, I'm not going to be complaining at all about how quiet everything is. I actually appreciate it because it allows me to get shots like this, without having lots of people walking in and out of my pictures. Tonight, I'm getting a much cleaner look. I wish that it could be like this all the time!Les mer

  • Keep On Dancing

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 52 °F

    As I passed the gaming tables, I saw that the same woman was still dancing. She seemed friendly and was posing for me a bit. That was so nice of her and I really appreciated it. I wish that all of the performers in Las Vegas were that accommodating.Les mer

  • Bellagio Fountain Show

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 52 °F

    When I got back onto the Strip, the Bellagio Fountain was running. I'm surprised that it would be working so late at night but I'm glad that it is. It always looks great. It's just too bad that I can't get over to see it because of how the sidewalks are constructed, not allowing anyone to cross the street. I'm sure that by the time I got to one of those overpass crossings, and then made it back to the Bellagio, the show would be over. I'll just wait until tomorrow and see it with Kathy. It's always better to share experiences like that anyway.Les mer

  • Happy New Year!

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 52 °F

    As I was walking back to our hotel room, I passed through this high end shopping mall connected to the Aria Resort and Casino. I was surprised to see that the decorations for Chinese New Year were still on display. They looked great and I was very glad that I got to see them. This dragon is so impressive!Les mer

  • Lucky Trees

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 54 °F

    These trees were all decked out in red Chinese lanterns. They aren't real trees, obviously, but they looked good and really contributed to the Chinese New Year theme. I think that Kathy would enjoy this display. It's too bad that she didn't come out with me but I understand that she's tired and this is too late for her. If she wants, I'll bring her back here in the daytime.Les mer

  • I'm Back!

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 54 °F

    As soon as I see this big replica of the Brooklyn Bridge, I know that I'm back home, at least for the next few days. I really like the New York New York resort and think that it's the nicest hotel on this side of the Strip.Les mer

  • New York?

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 54 °F

    I'm a little surprised by the looks of this hotel and it's claims to be a recreation of New York City. It looks more like New York City from a movie set in the 1940's. Is this really what the rest of the world imagines New York City to actually be like? How strange..Les mer

  • Big Breakfast

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F

    We decided to have breakfast at Hash House a Go-Go in the Linq resort and casino. The portions were huge and everything was delicious! I had the Truck Stop Combo, which consists of a banana and brown sugar pancake, eggs, and sausage. The pancake was so sweet that I didn't even have to put any syrup on it.
    Kathy got the Indiana Tradition which was bacon infused waffles, fried chicken, maple syrup reduction with leeks, scallions and onions on top. Her meal was so big that she couldn't even finish it. About half of the chicken ended up going with her as take out. I hope that we get a chance to come back her before we go home. Everything was fantastic!

  • At the Falls

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F

    The Mirage is such a beautiful hotel! We haven't stayed here yet but I'm hoping that we will someday. Eventually, I'd like to stay at least one one night at every hotel on the Strip. We've stayed at several different places already so I'm off to a good start!Les mer

  • Making Calls

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 64 °F

    This British phone booth was inside the Mirage, right next to the big atrium. You can't make calls but when you use the phone, you hear information about the Beatles Cirque du Soleil show. We're sort of both in this photo. Kathy's inside the phonebooth and you can see me reflected on the glass. I didn't even notice that as I was taking the picture. I'm surprised because I usually catch that sort of thing.Les mer

  • The Forum Shops

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 64 °F

    We didn't stay at the Mirage very long and soon found ourselves next door at the Forum Shops, a part of the Caesar's Palace resort. We've never been inside Caesar's Palace before. I don't know how we've never made it here but I'm glad that we're finally doing it on this trip.Les mer

  • Luxury Shopping

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 64 °F

    Known as “The Shopping Wonder of the World,” The Forum Shops are a must-see, all-encompassing experience at Caesars Palace. Las Vegas' definitive luxury shopping destination, The Forum Shops include approximately 160 specialty stores along with many fine restaurants and attractions.Les mer

  • Awesome Architecture

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ⛅ 70 °F

    This has got to be one of the most beautiful and impressive shopping centers that I've ever been to. I'd love to go shopping here but, as I don't care for high end luxury goods, there's nothing here that I'd be interested in buying. I'm very happy to just wander around and admire the architecture.Les mer

  • Appian Way

    5. mars 2019, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 64 °F

    A bit of wandering around brought us to the Appian Way, another shopping mall inside of Caesar's Palace but, unlike the Forum Shops, this area is much more than high end luxury goods. I'm already liking the unique look of this shopping center!Les mer
