Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas (Nevada)

In the Hard Rock Hotel we took full advantage of the room service. American breakfast for one is enough from two hungry Europeans.




The journey in Las Vegas continued in the southern part of the city, the famous "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign.


We headed back to the city. On the way we saw huge Coca-Cola bottle and M&M package.


It turned out that these are multi-storey shopping and entertainment complexes. We visited M&M store first. No special explanation needed.

All colors, flavors and sizes of M&M candies



3D cinema about M&M candies

The M&M Nascar car

Right next door to M&M store it was Coca-Cola store.




It was time to refresh ourselves. Luckly for us there was a Hard Rock Cafe not far away from all the shopping complexes.



Hard Rock's tradition is if you have a birthday, you get special treatment and whole cafe is singing "Happy Birthday" with the toast. Oh well...


The last thing we wanted to try in Las Vegas was a typical american dinner. In the Strip area it was impossible to find anything else than world-class, well-known and fancy restaurants. So we went on the north side of the Las Vegas. In so called Old Downtown Las Vegas, where we experienced a strange feeling. This area was totally different from the Strip area. Very small houses with grates on the windows and doors. Nearly every property had a sign "No trespassing" and walking through this area was unpleasant. There we found our dinner and we expected everything else than hospitality. People were nice and really friendly. And more importantly food was delicious.

We experienced Las Vegas in all it's glory and it's horror. Nevertheless nice and unforgivable journey. There is so much left to see that going back might be an option.

Till next time, Viva Las Vegas!
