Las
Vegas Vacation
If you’ve never
taken a Las Vegas vacation, I definitely recommend doing it at least
once in your life. Las Vegas vacations can be exciting, and
can give you a taste of a sort of glamorous life even if for just a
short while. So long as you have some money to spend,
you’ll generally be treated like royalty on a Las Vegas
vacation. Of course, when you run out of money
you’ll probably get a very different impression of Las Vegas.
The best way to do a Las Vegas vacation is definitely to splurge a
little. See a show or two, get a nice room on the strip, and
live it up for a while. There’s some great venues
in Las Vegas, and almost always some great shows to see.
Gambling can be a lot of fun too if that’s your thing, but
just make sure you can afford to lose anything you gamble with!
Even on the cheap, a Las Vegas vacation can be fun.
It’s just one of those cities you have to see in your
life. You don’t have to stay in one of those big
name casino hotel resorts, and can find plenty of affordable rates
along the strip, or even more affordable a short drive out.
Since you don’t really, or at least shouldn’t
really, be spending a whole lot of time in your room, I don’t
really think it matters much where you stay in a Las Vegas
vacation. Of course, it’s nice to be on or near the
strip so you can easily walk from one place to another. If
you are going in the summer, this is key, as it is brutal to walk very
far during a hot summer day in Las Vegas.
Having said all that, I’ve been on Las Vegas vacations twice,
and I feel like I’ve had enough of it for two
lifetimes. Even though I’ll probably wait until
I’m reincarnated for the third time before I go back, the Las
Vegas vacations I took were certainly worthwhile and made for
interesting memories and funny photographs to share with people.
If you’ve ever seen the Chevy Chase movie National
Lampoon’s Las Vegas Vacation, you’ll have seen some
great examples of how not to take a Las Vegas vacation. Well,
at least the part about staying in a trailer with your in laws in the
middle of nowhere.
