<pre style="line-height: 16.0pt; background: white;"> Everybody we spoke to loved Vegas. We've seen it on films and TV, so we were excited ourselves to see it for real. It's like a huge theme park for adults, with its humongous casinos, big bright lights and cheap alcohol. The place makes its visitors feel rich, making it easy for people to part with their hard earned cash. Even us 'b... Read Full Entry

Vegas Mission Impossible
You've found a way to embrace sin city on the cheap. You are setting a great example. Glad you made it to Mystere. We saw it years ago and really enjoyed it. Great photos and continue to enjoy your impressions.

Glad you continue to enjoy our travels and impressions. We are having a great time and are happy to be sharing it with other like minded travellers. We wasn't sure what to expect with Mystere but we really enjoyed all that it had to offer.

Story from when I took a photo of the LV sign
Thank you for blogging about Vegas. It brings back happy memories from when I was there a few years ago. Actually, one of the luckiest shots I've ever taken was of the Las Vegas sign. There is a constant stream of tourists going there and everybody wants to stand themselves in the picture when they shot a photo of the sign. I, on the other hand, do not want people in my pics. Not me and certainly not three or four people whom I have never met before who is posing for their own photo. We got out of the car and we stood there for a while when I all of a sudden see that I, for about two seconds, have a clear view of the sign. Some tourists had already left and a new group was coming but they were a few metres away. I pull out the camera, just like a gunslinger in the wild west would would pull our his gun, and shoot the photo without aiming or anything. I shoot in the same motion as I pull it out really. One second later the magic moment is gone. When I look at the picture on the camera I see that the photo is perfectly centred and perfectly cropped. When I look really carefully at the photo I notice that there is one person in the photo. Right on the edge there is an Elvis impersonator. I could not even dream up a better photo /Ake

That magic photo
What an incredible story, sounds like a magic moment. I can't believe the picture came out so well. A photo you surely have to frame. There were people lining up for that perfect photo when we were there. We were the same we did not want anything else in the photo but as soon as it was our time to take a photo. We froze not knowing what to do. We quickly repeated the pose of the previous couple. Epic fail lol.
