AH, Sin City! What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas... unless you use Yelp! Then you gotta write a review!
It had been a while since my last visit to this fun town. Almost too long. We had reason as my daughter's dance team was scheduled to compete here over the July 4th weekend. Yes, it was hot. It was even over 100 and climbing as we drove through the desert at sunset to get there.
Well, this visit did not disappoint. Aside from the dance competition, there were some new attractions and hotels that had sprung up since my last visit as well as the need to visit some oldies but goodies. The Aria and Cosmopolitan hotels were new near the center of the strip. Not necessarily new this year, but new since the last time I visited. I'm pretty sure they were in the process of being built, but can't say for sure. Anyway, those are two newer hotels that are conjoined by a nice high end mall.
The lights along the strip are stunning. Huge billboards that are super clear and crisp line most every hotel. I wish I had something like that in my living room to watch ball games on! Must say, the girls on the strip seem to a bit more visible and aggressive than what I remember in trips past.
All in all, good times in Vegas this time around!
Keep on Yelp'n!
