Vegas Report - Post #1

Well, it's been almost 2 weeks since we returned from Las Vegas.  It was an amazing experience!  I think I have finally recovered, LOL!

Over the next few posts, I'll review each days activities and post a few pics. 

Today, I'll just briefly mention the hotel we stayed at, Vdara.  It was beautiful.  I posted a review on Trip Advisor Here

It seems like a very high percentage of the people visiting Vegas are smokers. Or maybe smokers tend to gather there because it's one of the only places that still allow smoking in public places?  The casino hotels still allow smoking, which keeps smokers in the casinos (which is kind of the point I guess) but I couldn't stand staying in them for any more than about 30 minutes. And of course all of the hotels are designed to make you walk through the large, smoke-filled casino in order to get anywhere, like the hotel lobby or hhe theatre entrances.  At any rate I was so glad that we stayed in a non smoking hotel. It was a welcome relief at the end of the day.  It smelled wonderful.
