I'm going on the 18th !! This'll be the third time
Things you must do -
Have a meal in the Stratosphere - but not her birthday meal, cos the rotation makes you feel slightly queezy
Make best use of the free monorail
Go on the roller coaster at New York, New York
Take a stroll in the evenings up and down the strip - watch the fountains show at the Bellagio, the Pirates show at Treasure Island
On the 20th I'll be eating my birthday tea in the Eiffel tower at Paris - so if you want to see the worlds most pissed man - I'll be there.
Hire a car and go to an outlet mall - I know this doesn't sound like "fun" - but I picked up loads of Timberland gear for Matalan prices
Get out of town in a Mustang Convertable or even on a Harley (Las Vegas Harley) and go to red rock canyon or around Lake Mead - stunning scenery - and if you fancy a longer run out - go to Death Valley
If your going to go the the Grand Canyon - go in a helicopter - more expensive, but well worth the money - the car takes 4 hours, and you don't actually see very much from the rim strangely
Do an all you can eat buffet - man alive, you'll quicky realise why most of them are sooooo fat
Put $50 on red - just for the hell of it - lol
Totally ace place - but don't take the kids as some is a bit risque. You can pay as much or as little as you like - there's a real mix. The one thing you will notice though is that most people seem to make the effort - shirts and shoes and even suits rather than Tshirts and trainers - but there's no rules. Nightclubs are a little disapointing, they're all a bit snooty, but hey ho. Fruit machines aren't like the ones in the UK - just plain luck rather than any skill, and playing cards can be a bit daunting when you only just know the rules - and in my case are usually quite pissed.
Oh - and if you go at the right time - Las Vegas motorspeedway hosts the national drag racing - which is spectacular.
Next year I'm going to Reno to watch the air races - fucking A
Oh yes, and prostitution is legal in Nevada
