A friend of mine (actually my future brother-in-law) has gone to Las Vegas about a month ago, and he found it fantastic! (he also gambled a bit) So i guess Las Vegas should be on my trip-program too.

Put Las Vegas back on the list. It's a fun place if you like people, lights, and superlative everything. Rooms and food are cheap because they make plenty on gambling and booze. But I outsmart them. I don't drink or gamble. They do some great shows (not cheap, but worth it). I guess I've been five or six times. It's always changing , and always fun. Don't miss Fremont street downtown.
