Desert Landscape at Red Rock Canyon, NevadaI love to travel!  It could be traveling to foreign destinations or even traveling to another state – either way, traveling is something that I enjoy.  I have to admit that I have only been to Las Vegas twice in my life – once as a kid and once as an adult.  Believe it or not, neither time I went did I spend time in a casino! Cause I used to love playing at this online site called https://www.onlinecasinogames.com/ and I got to experience that life at a real casino and when many think of Vegas, the first things that pop into their minds are casinos, bright lights, and the strip, right?

  1. My youngest sister and our mom went there a few years ago and loved getting away from the strip. Thanks for sharing other activities outside of a casino as any time I have to go out there I’d want options.

    Good ideas! I never think of doing much beyond shows, food and slot machines when in Vegas. Next time I’ll have to try something different!

    Vegas is a great town! I had no idea the pinball hall of fame was there. I like to shop, as there’s all kind of fantastic crafty bits in Vegas.
