Anyone been to Las Vegas lately?

haha, dar....just got back last night.

My, mom, sis and I had a blast! This was the first time I had been there. All of the casinos are huge. Walking down the strip, you think that you are close and it turns out you aren't even near to arriving at where you are walking.

We stayed at a pretty nice casino, but walked into one of the tackier ones. It had the 'Pleasure Pit' which had gaming tables with pole dancers on top of each of them.

We also took a couple of day trips to the Hoover Dam and Red Rock Canyon.

I took tons of pics. Sadly, only a few were on the strip and in casinos./.

 

We meant to get to Freemont street, but never made it. I only saw a few kids where we were. Gotta say, it floored me that anyone would bring kids there. Even with all the other things to do, I don't think it's an appropriate place for them.

Here's a few pics from the trip:

Guy connected to his slot (took me a minute to figure out he wasn't chained there and it was his pay card thingy LOL):
