My RV Trip! Read all about it here!

A Tour Of Las Vegas….

January 6, 2008 – 7:43pm

Well, according to my little poll that is on my blog website, it looks like 50% of the people who answered my poll question “How many of my blog visitors have visited Las Vegas??” have never been to Las Vegas, and 30% of my poll goers has been here over 5 times!! Well, it is true that if you’ve been here once, you will always find time to come back again. But, for the people that voted that they have never been to Las Vegas, well, that only means one thing to me……More Pictures! Yeah!!! :) Thanks to everyone who took a second to vote. :) Today, we visited the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino. The Mandalay Bay is the last casino on the Las Vegas strip (Stratosphere being on the north end, this being on the south end). The line up from the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino is the Luxor Hotel and Casino (the pyramid) and then the Excalibur Hotel and Casino (the castle). At the four way intersection of Tropicana Avenue and Las Vegas Boulevard sits four casinos, New York New York, MGM, Tropicana, and The Excalibur. After we left the Mandalay Bay, we took the free Tram to the Luxor and the Tram continues to take people from the Luxor to the Excalibur. Here’s some pictures…..

$10,000 prize….hmmmm, that reminds me….where’s my keno ticket??

Maybe, just maybe, I have a chance…….

The Mandalay Bay has a House of Blues inside……

‘Tis the season. The escalators you see here will take you thru some shops and then to the Luxor Hotel and Casino. You never have to go outside to get from one casino to the next here…..

This is what you see after you enter the front door of the Luxor. We are heading outside, out the front door……

We took the free Tram from the Luxor to the Excalibur…….

Yep, disgrace on the strip :) , they have one of those here…….

They are just giving away Corvettes here. Want one? Just got to win it. I’m still trying…..

New York New York Hotel and Casino, one of my favorites……

They’ve got one of these in New York New York. Do you remember the movie?

Here’s a picture I took tonight of the Excalibur……

We hopped the bus right next to M&M World and Coca-Cola World (across the street from New York New York) to go back to the RV. We will be going back to this later in the week. I’m out of M&Ms. Got to have more M&Ms! We just ran out of time tonight…..

Well, that’s what we did today. Pretty easy day. There’s other little projects I’m working on for this blog that will be done later this week (hey, I’m on vacation *smile*). And if you are wondering, today I profited about 45 dollars when the day was done. I’m off to relax and catch some TV shows before calling it a night. Bye! :)
Note: 4 days to Jake’s birthday!!
