Experiencing Vegas

Since we never explored much yesterday, we were keen on doing everything today. That includes hotel sightseeing, gambling and clubbing. Hehe. Got up round lunch time again. Haha. Sosan went to close her bank account as she was too broke from shopping needed more money. Hehe.

Went exploring hotels on the strip after the lunch. Hend who was super lazy decided to go back to the hotel to chill. (I wonder whether her ordered special room service….) So it was only the 3 of us exploring around the strip. But no before Sosan redeem herself on the act she did on the M&M’s in NYC. See the difference?

First stop was Planet Hollywood. There I really nothing special bout this place except the fact that there is a lot of shops. More like a shopping mall replica.

Then we set off to Paris Las Vegas. Really nice architectures. Took many photos here. Wanna stay here next time when I come to Las Vegas.

Bellagio is up next. Man this place is huge walking around it really make my feet ache. As we got to the conservatory, we couldn’t help but notice how the whole place is American theme. Isn’t Bellagio Italian? Enlighten me on this please. Planed to come back to watch the fountain show at night.


Gosh, is he wearing an air balloon?

We quickly headed off to Caesar’s Palace after that. Ranjan decided to try his luck on the roulette there. And guess what? He won like more than the amount he betted on. So lucky. I guess first timers will always win ya. Haha. I had a great time there seeing the game. After the happy event, we went around the place to take even more photos.


It took us very long to get this pic. Ppl are like queueing up to take photo

We tot this was Ali until after we took the photo. Haha. Blur us.
Spiralling escalator!

Headed off to Treasure Island next. This time, Ranjan decided to try black jack. We waited for the dealer to have bad luck before playing. But sigh guess its just the dealer’s lucky day. We lost, but still the earnings from the roulette is more. Verdict = win! Hehe.
I just love this one
A very difficulst shot. But turns out nice

We wanted to check out Circus Circus which is on the far north end of the strip next. So we went to take the monorail. Man, the monorail here is damn expensive. 5 dollars for a ride! Kaoz! We took it anyway but with a fun pass than decrease he fare to 3 dollars. Still, it was the most expensive in the states.

Circus circus was not really grand but I must say the concept of a amusement park and arcadein the building is good. My friend who wanted to get on the rides decided a little to late. Haha. It closed right before they decided to get on the roller coaster. What a shame.

At that time, Hendrik is finally done with his ‘business’ and is ready to join us. So we took the expensive monorail back to our hotel. Next up on the list is the Cirque du Soleil KA show. I am missing this show the 2nd time around. No more money on me. Sigh! I took a photo in front of it anyway. Haha. I heard from them that it is realy really good. After listening to the CD they bought, I couldn’t agree less.

We ended the night with a clubbing experience at LAX night club at Luxor. Good thing we gotten free VIP passes. Hehe. It was quite a sight, no wonder they call this Sin City.
