Let's hit the town!!!. We spent most of the day walking 'The Strip' as its called, looking at the Hotels and the people. The new Wynn Hotel is really quite beautiful, the bar and eating establishments are well planned and great to enjoy. This is a very expensive hotel and so with one Margarita each at £ 8.00 each we left to enjoy a steak dinner at the 'Outback' steak house. This is a very good chain of restaurants with an Australian flavour.
We decided not to go to a show as they are quite expensive and as Elton John was not on we would save our money for another day. This place was a little quieter than the last time that we visited but we enjoyed the 7 mile walk all the same, the sun was shining and the temperature was around 85 degrees farenhite for most of the day.
The people who visit Las Vegas are a very mixed bunch, from the down and outs to the very rich, all seem to mix in the the same places. Visible are the very, very large limousines which are avilable for weddings and for any party group.
The hotels are still the biggest draw and The Venetian is still one of our favourites, the attempt to copy Venice somehow has succeeded very well. The gondolas with the singing gondoleers adds to the flavour although we did notice that the boats have electric motors and the passengers wear seat belts!!.... on 2 feet of water, max !!... still what the heck, it almost looks and feels like Venice.
