My Favorite Place On The Planet~

Photos cannot prepare you for the glitter, glamour and enormous scale of Las Vegas. There is never a dull moment, and everywhere you look is something new and wonderous!

Whether you are a gambler, enjoy world-class theatrical shows, five star dining or outdoors activities. There is something to satisfy everyone in Las Vegas. There are casinos for those who like games of chance, many of which also feature in house gourmet eateries and theatres. A short trip away is Lake Mead, which has great fishing, and the Grand Canyon and Valley of Fire, for great camping, hiking and photography opportunities.

I love Vegas sooo much, I got married here on February 5, 2006 at the Monte Carlo Wedding Chapel! It was a dream come true!

Click on tips below to learn more about my favorite place on the planet!

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Lots of activities including gambling, theatrical productions, fine dining and camping. The architecture is breathtaking!
  • Cons:Canvassers (passing out erotic advertisement), Slow moving crowded streets, You can loose a fortune!
  • In a nutshell:My favorite place on the planet, and my retirement home (if not before!) The glitz and glamour of the Strip, to the scerenity of fishing Lake Meade!

    We tried to eat there on our way home and I have never met so many rude waitresses in my life. They were so busy but instead of the waitresses helping each others, some were just walking around and every time we asked they said that was not their table.

    My wife and I refer to the canvassers as 'Porn-Slappers'. I hope Vegas doesn't get rid of them- it's all part of that Sin City Image. Why try to water it down to be like an other McGambling town? :)
