"Welcome to Las Vegas, my friends; Parker here! My journey begins in the elevator of the Paris hotel. This is where I stayed on my 3 day trip."
|
 |
|
"This is the view from my hotel window. The building taking up half of the image is a wing of the Paris hotel."
|
 |
|
"This is the lobby of the Paris hotel. It took me 45 minutes to check in; the first of many lines I would have to wait in in the next couple of days."
|
 |
|
Where more people lose there money then anywhere else in the country....I think.
|
 |
|
"Right outside of the Paris hotel...where the cabs pull up."
|
 |
|
"A nice little fountain near a cafe' attatched to the Paris.... I think that's a run-on sentence?"
|
 |
|
"A scaled (I think 1/3) version of the Eiffel Tower. And yes, right outside of the Paris. You can take an elevator to the top, but that's 30 bucks I didn't want to spend. Maybe next time."
|
 |
|
"The casino right next to the Paris; so this was the next logical stop. Doesn't appear to be one of the major ones."
|
 |
|
"Just a nice little alley.....nothing more."
|
 |
|
"The Mirage hotel/casino. Just could not take a decent picture of this place to save my life; this is probably the best one."
|
 |
|
"The Venechian......didn't really spend too much time at this one. So don't really have that much to say."
|
 |
|
"An interesting hallway/entrance to the Venechian hotel."
|
 |
|
"Gondolas being cleaned; right outside of the Venechian."
|
 |
|
"The Imperial Palace; I really liked the look of this one! By the way, at this point, I think I have walked for about an hour. Just wanted to keep you guys posted."
|
 |
|
"Wide view of Ceasar's Palace. Ceasar was nowhere to be found......darn it!
|
 |
|
"More of the same."
|
 |
|
"Little area in front of Ceasar's; didn't really seem to serve any purpose."
|
 |
|
"Weird looking part of the strip; kinda' retro looking. I can't really pin-point it."
|
 |
|
"Here you go Taylor and Angela! A perfect place for the ceremony; throw those invitations in the trash!"
|
 |
|
"Out of the three, guess which one likes pecan pie..."
|
 |
|
"Circus Circus......well, pretty tame in the day time. We'll come back later."
|
 |
|
"And then they built another money-maker."
|
 |
|
"I really can't remember which lobby this was.......maybe Stardust. Three hours has passed; time to take a break. I'll have more pics in the evening."
