You remember the Monorail episode of the Simpsons?
It is the one where the some con man comes to town and they build a Monorail and then it breaks and they can not get the brakes to work and it just starts barreling out of control around the town before Homer can save the day and anchor the out of control train to a giant donut?
Thats what the Vegas Monorail is like to me...without being so funny.
I guess the $12 pass for 24 hours is a decent deal if you plan on going from one end of the strip all the way to the other frequently. Maybe I am different but I love walking the strip, I think its half the fun. If I have somewhere to go far away I drive my car.
We decided to try the Monorail one night when we were all the way down at MGM and needed to get back to Harrah's and did not want to walk all the way late at night. We got on the train and it started on its journey...faster and faster and faster...seriously I thought we were going to crash. No joke. It still seemed like it took a while to get from the MGM all the way back to Harrah's.
I totally was not impressed with the whole experience. Next time we will either take the car down to the other end or just walk.
