Las Vegas - information on travel, clubs, shows

Las Vegas RV living

Las Vegas, Nevada - the most exciting city in the world. We will be here for about 4 months total then head to Florida for Christmas, family and friends. A typical day is watching a Las Vegas show, going to movies, attending concerts, and checking out the amusements on the strip. See Las Vegas Pictures for more coverage of Vegas.

Jason and Kelly celebrating Kelly's 39th birthday at Simon Kitchen and Bar inside the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Delicious Sea Bass (like on Napoleon Dynamite), Curry chicken, superb crab cake, blue cheese bread, followed by Cotton Candy Cloud and chocolate delight paired with a vanilla shake. How do we stay so thin - see the Hoodia product.

Las Vegas still has lots of free fun as usual, though they are harder to find. Kids can spend all day for $15 each in the air-conditioned Circus Circus Adventure Dome amusement park. The Bellagio dinner buffet at $25 a head is still worth it - try finding unlimited portions of 30" long King Crab legs sliced and shelled for you anywhere else. You pull the giant hot dog sized strips of pure white meat out, roll it up, dip the tennis ball sized portion into the warm drawn butter and blast off to heaven. I have eaten in hundreds of upscale restaurants all over the US - and these are still, along with the Aladdin buffet with Dungeness crab, the most delicious meals I have ever eaten.

Some other Las Vegas restaurants we enjoyed include Hash House a Go Go, Sahara Buffet, Bellagio Buffet, Cheesecake Factory, Rio Buffet, McCormick & Schmick's, Outback Steakhouse, Paris Le Village Buffet, Royal Persis, The Grand Lux Cafe, Rainbow Bar and Grill, Mimis Cafe, McMullans Irish Pub, Paymons Mediterranean, Ruth's Chris Steak House, Cozymels, Bahama Breeze, Marie Callenders, Peppermill, Hank's Fine Steaks and Martinis at Green Valley Ranch Resort Casino, Shalimar Fine Indian Cuisine, The Original Pancake House, Draft House, Wild Wild West, Metro Pizza, Lotus of Siam, Koji Sushi Bar and Chinese Restaurant, Pamplemousse Las Vegas, Burger Bar, all-you-can-eat BBQ at the Salt Lick at Red Rock Resort Casino, Landry's, Paradise Cafe, Planet Hollywood, The Steakhouse at Circus Circus, MGM Buffet, Gandhi, Chipotle, El Pollo Loco...

Things have changed a little over the past 10 years besides the addition of new casinos. 1) added over 10 world class, $25 cover, upscale movie star level night clubs, 2) addition of 5 million dollar condos - real estate prices have doubled in 4 years, 3) most casino shows have gotten more risqué making Las Vegas less kid friendly than ever - even the billboards and ads in the local papers are rated PG-13, 4) free stuff is harder to come by, town is becoming more full featured and less about gambling.

Joke: Catholic churches
This may come as a surprise to those of you not living in Las Vegas, but there are more Catholic churches there than casinos. Not surprisingly, some worshippers at Sunday services will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed. Since they get chips from so many different casinos, the churches have devised a method to collect the offerings. The churches send all their collected chips to a nearby Franciscan Monastery for sorting and then the chips are taken to the casinos of origin and cashed in. This is done by the chip monks.

Two of our favorite places not too far from Las Vegas are Mount Charleston which is 30 degrees cooler year round, and Laughlin which sits on the Colorado River.
