Fabulous Las Vegas!
I wasn’t sure what to expect from Las Vegas – my only ideas of the city coming from Ocean’s Eleven and CSI! But as soon as we arrived the fun began.
My lasting impression is of how diverse the city is – there really is something for everybody. Of course there are the casinos – and a huge number of them! But there are also some of the very best restaurants to be found, and shopping to rival New York – everything from the discount malls to top designer stores. The number of shows you can see is unbelievable – we caught the original “Mystere” show at TI on the strip, a stunning performance. And sports fans are well catered for – the new Mecca of boxing as it’s become known, we even bumped into Amir Khan as he arrived for his fight against Zab Juddah!
If you don’t fancy the 24-hour indoor life of Vegas, there’s plenty to do outdoors. The hotels pools are better than any I have seen in hotels around the world, the Mandalay Bay even has a full size beach! You could happily come to Vegas for a few days to chill out all day and party all night in the pool-side nightclubs. And of course you can’t miss a trip to the Grand Canyon – understandably one of the greatest natural sights in the world.
After just a 4 day whirlwind trip, I will definitely be going back for more!
