Las Vegas Trips
Excellent Vacation Ideas
Las Vegas trips are always a blast! You can make it a romantic trip, a
relaxing trip or an adventurous trip.
Las Vegas!
The Infamous Las Vegas Sign
We don't always recommend it as a family trip, just because there
are more things to do without the kids than with. Most kids get bored in
a couple of days in Las Vegas, especially the teenagers as there isn't a lot
for them to do other than hang out by the pool or shop.
Las Vegas is is an adult play land. We always call it Disney World for
Adults (having said that Disney World does offer a lot for adults too!).
Warren and I visit Vegas at least once a year, although lately it has been
twice a year - Spring and Fall. Then the weather is great for the pools -
not too hot and not too cold.
Las Vegas trips offer you one of the only places in the world
that you can travel to the South Pacific, Egypt, King Arthurs Court, New York,
Monte Carlo, Italy, Ancient Rome, Treasure Island, or Paris all in one day.
Las Vegas has whatever you are looking
for - Excitement, romance, entertainment, adventure or relaxing in the sun!
In fact there is so much to
see, do and experience that it is impossible to do it all in one trip!
