Las Vegas is a must-see City. You could easily spend a couple of days going in and out of all the hotels and casinos on the Las Vegas Strip. In fact, you can tour the world as each hotel has its own unique theme. Fabulous fun. However, be prepared to be crowded out as the day goes on. Las Vegas has no low season in respect of numbers of people. Convention traffic, hen/stag parties, wedding celebrations equal lots of people about in addition to holiday visitors.
We have been to Las Vegas a number of times so our main objective for the day was to do a little shopping and see any new hotels that had been built since our last visit. We did not use the car at all today. We did a lot a walking to the newish Palazzo Hotel and along the canal in The Venetian. Trying to economise, we ate at Denny's for breakfast, McDonald's for lunch and then had a very light dinner back at Denny's. We met an interesting man who had call from his son whilst eating to which he reported, 'Don't worried about your inheritance, I have just spent it'. Our favourite gambling spot seemed to be at Casino Royale (next door to Denny's). The only reason is probably because we won on the machines and our hotel (Harrah's) was nearby.
On Day 3 we drove out to Henderson to the Green Valley Ranch Hotel to have breakfast at their Pancake House. Did a little shopping and more sight-seeing and then to Bill's Gamblin' Hall & Saloon for dinner.
If you haven't been before make use of the monorail which goes between MGM Grand and The Hilton. You can get a day pass.
Tomorrow - Time to 'leave Las Vegas'
Tips
1. The Las Vegas Strip becomes more crowded as the day goes on. If you are travelling from Europe, you will likely wake early. Hooray! Everything is open - stores, restaurants, hotels and casinos. Even a Wal-Mart.
