More Vegarse

Not much to say here - what follows are some photos from my Dad's camera while we were in Vegas.


This is the MGM Hotel, designed after a movie studio of the same name. The overall affect is to resemble Hollywood, and at this, it succeeds rather spectacularly.


Just for you Dan - a rather nice bike parked outside our hotel. Actually, there was an American Chopper bike inside the Excalibur where we were staying, and a whole bank of pokies you could win it on.


Well, it wouldn't be Vegas without Elvis, would it?


The Excalibur, where we stayed. Like I said previously, the hotel designs are whacked. Very cool though.

This is the Monte Carlo - I personally didn't see this one, but one assumes it would have a European flavour to it.


New York, New York. The New York skyline is brought to life in Las Vegas. Probably a good thing they didn't design this with the World Trade Centres, otherwise some serious remodelling would have been in order.


Apparently you can get anything Vegas. And I do mean, anything.


And finally, the Hotel Luxor, which, as you may have already guessed, is somewhat Egyptian in theme. Very cool.

Paul,

Have spent the last hour catching up on your adventures - the air museum would have to be the highlight (at least for me!).

Say g'day to your Dad and keep blogging

Dave

Hey David,

Dad and I commented a few times that you would have loved the air museum. I've got loads more photos of other planes that they had there - Avengers, Hellcats, various Jets, P-40's etc etc etc, so you'll be able to see all those when I, or Dad, return.

Cheers
