I've worked in IT for 20 years, am a lifelong tech geek, and a Trekkie. It takes A LOT to impress me when it comes to technology. So when I saw my first light and music show on the canopy I got the chills and misty-eyed! It's really freaking amazing. We are going to Las Vegas again this weekend and specifically staying on Fremont Street just for this experience!
Fremont Street used to be the "old, dirty, gritty Vegas" but isn't anymore. It's a huge tourist attraction where you can walk around, take pictures with people in wild costumes, drink crazy drinks, and watch live bands play. There are tons of stores, restaurants, and casinos that you can spend hours going in and out of.
While I love the strip and think the resorts there are beautiful, they are just too big for me. The hotels on Fremont are old, classic places and are smaller and much easier to navigate. Plus you can walk on Fremont Street comfortably....unlike the Strip!
