As some of you know, I've been hitting up the City of Sin, Las Vegas, with one of my old friends from HS.

So far, it has been out of this world. My first few days were the weekend.. and it was just insane compared to what I'm used to.

I'll give you the details when I can.. but I'm gettin rdy to head out again, of course.

;)

Vegas looks cheap, tacky, noisy, dirty and extremely sordid.

I HAVE to go.

I can't wait to go to Vegas this summer <3

The fact I can't drink is a bit of a bern, but, regardless <3

^ Am I right in saying that you're allowed into casinos at 18, but you aren't allowed to play anything?

Yup.
You are allowed in casinos but not allowed to do anything, and that includes even watching the games like Poker close up. I got shouted out multiple times last Summer for doing that lolz.

It was. I was in and out of Casinos for all the 5 days I was there, and I actually gambled! Bet $1 and won $10!




WELL! I'm home. Sorry I couldn't update.. but.. I was in Vegas.. I mean come on.. :p

You name it, I visited it. Bellagio, Luxor, Flamingo, the big Strata.. awesome. I even visited the Hoover Dam!

If I could have a recommendation for ANYONE who would go, stay at the Bellagio if you have a chance.. because it is: 1. in the perfect spot to go out on the strip, and 2. B-E-A-UTIFUL.

The city was actually overwhelming for me, being a person from a place with.. at MAX.. 4 lanes of traffic.. and average sized buildings.. to Las Vegas.

Everyday was a blast and I recommend anyone over 21 to visit (if you aren't.. you are pretty much ****ed because you cannot do ANYTHING fun).. because I got carded everywhere I went that was worth while.

I have tons of photos to post, but I left my picture connecter thingy at college, so it will be a few days, but if anyone has any questions about what went on or what was a good place to visit, I'm all ears.



I will say one thing, that is the most alcohol I have drank in a 5 day period in my life.

Come to UK on a night out.... :lol:
By the way, Is that new Grand Canyon Sky walk close to Vegas or not?

Not even close.. lol

You CAN, however, ride XScream on top of the Stratosphere. It is, by FAR, the scariest thing I've ever ridden.

No coaster is even in the VICINITY of that scary.






And AHH! I forgot to rate the rides I rode!


Manhattan Express: Overall, not nearly as bad as everyone says.. but it still sucks. The transitions were atrocious and it was hardly smooth. It gave a great view but the pacing was HORRID.

5/10

Desperado: Gives great airtime but jesus does it beat you up. The seats sucked, as did most of the transitions, but can you help that on a Arrow? They just needed to keep their coasters in a straight line instead of trying to bank.. because they sucked.

6/10

Speed: The Ride: Pretty good, nice little pops and great setting, but WAY too short. It had a few head jolts but other then that, smooth.

6.5/10



Stratopshere:

Insanity: Crazy.. just sitting over the strip, spinning. It wasn't as intense as the others, but definitely a unique experience.

8/10

Big Shot
: Wow. The view was incredible, the airtime was very nice, and the feeling of just NOTHING 1000ft in the air was just mind blowing. Great ride.

9/10

XScream: Holy. ****ing. Hell. I was scared as hell, ans being lucky enough to ride up front on my first ride.. it was insane. Just crazy insane. Ride it.. front row too.

11/10
 

F.A.S.T.

It's a 2 hour drive for me. I went to it when it opened (I have some pictures I'll pull them out if I can find them) it was all right. At first its kinda cool, but it wears off after a while. (It might have actually been a waste of money!)

Snoo, XSceam does look ****en scary!
I'd piss my pants with out a doubt!

Good to here you had fun man.
