Day 4 in Las Vegas

Its 4.30pm in Vegas and the sky is getting dark... I'm in my comfortable hotel room drinking Corona beer, listening to my favorite jazzy xmas songs & writing my blog.

Shop around Vegas for the past 2 days. Didn't really buy alot of things cos i'm waiting to shop in San Francisco on boxing day, where there be lots of sale. Getting around Vegas is easy. Juz buy a day pass and you can have unlimited rides on the monorail to bring you along the strip. I went to Harrah's Las Vegas, The Venetian, Fashion Show Shopping Mall, Las Vegas Hilton & Guitar Center (Yup, guitar center cos its a MUST GO place for Gary!).

Of all the themed hotels in Vegas, I love The Venetian most. Not for the accomodation cos i have never stayed there before. The most outstanding thing about this hotel is that it has got a man-made river inside, with a boat rider riding along the river and singing along the way. Also, they have this "streetsmosphere" thing, where there are man and woman dressed as police, soldiers etc standing like statues around the mall, but they are actually human being! Interesting!

Below are some pictures I have taken over the past 2 days:

This is the indoor shot of a typical hotel cum shopping mall in Vegas. Note the articial sky. That's one of the unique thing about Vegas. Everything is man-made but it is done so nicely.

That'a all for today. Am going down to the casino to try my luck again before i go for Lee Hom concert at 8pm. Will be travelling to San Francisco tomorrow. Will update again soon!
