Las Vegas is one grand city. I don’t think anything can prepare you for Vegas. I’ve been told all about the lights and buzz about the city before but never did I think it would be as enormous as it was when I got there. The hotel and casino complexes are simply massive. I was gob smacked when I read that some have over 5,000 rooms. Just crazy.
My girlfriend and I walked around heaps taking photos along the way but after a while that got a bit tiring. I didn’t realise the Strip was so long! We ended up either jumping in the car and driving to each casino or catching the monorail which was convenient. There was just so much to see and too little time. We managed to visit a handful of the complexes in our 3 days and 2 nights in the city. That was probably a bit too short though. Next time I’d like to spend 5 days in Vegas and make a day trip to the Grand Canyon.
Before driving back to LA we went to visit the Hoover Dam. After seeing it in movies over the years I was really excited about seeing it in real life. The water level was quite low which was a bit disappointing but nevertheless it was a amazing to see it.
