Vegas baby

After a bit of a sleep in as we were both tired after a long drive and late night we headed downtown to the Fremont street area of Vegas as the living example of how it used to be before the mega resorts moved in. The heat was incredible so hot, hard to believe it is Autumn(Fall). This area was fun with lots of quirky pawn shops and a great little artist community and some great old signs and casinos - we had a free drink that almost blew our tongues out - we are on to how they hook you in, so only drank a sip.
Then we headed back towards the strip to see the famous lights which were awesome we took in a show at the MGM Grand called Ka which was a Cirque du Soleil production and it was amazing with a purpose built stage the engineering of the sets was mindblowing let alone the music, costumes and acts. We then went for  walk to see the sights and caught two free shows of a volcano exploding at the Mirage and a pirate dance show at Treasure Island.
Observations:
• To get into clubs you need to be super hot and wear very little clothes
• There is alot of clicking sounds as you walk along from all the stripper card distributors
• Drinking on the street from weird vessels is normal
• There are alot of different ways to dress ladies to attract punters
• If you want anything personalised this is the town including M&Ms
• Tattoo parlours are everywhere
• Restaurants are based on themes not good food
• You can have your picture taken with almost anyone or thing for a price
• Wear comfy shoes as you will walk ALOT
