🙂 Nothing positive to report.
🙁 Hellhole. Sad. Been there, done that and did not even buy the t=shirt. 🙁
AKA Sin City – Because of the male-focused entertainment and soaring crime rates, Las Vegas earned its notorious nickname, Sin City in the early 1930s. Mobsters assimilated into the scene, bringing criminal activity with them. Soon, prostitution and other shady businesses started to rise in the area. It is a sad place. You get free alcohol and cigarettes if you play the slot machines – luring people into further debt and depravity. Tragic.
We left Flagstaff in the Grand Canyon and took a Greyhound to Vegas which arrived at 05h20.
Had breakfast at the Plaza for $1.69!!! NO Vacancies at any hostel or affordable accommodation! So we hired a car at Rebel Rent a car and headed off to Zion & Bryce Canyon instead!
The next morning we headed back to Vegas after visiting Zion. We had lunch at MacDonalds and headed off to check out Hoover Dam which was quite impressive but very busy.
We headed to Circus Circus and took turns in spending $25 each gambling. I won $100 but soon fed it back to the hungry slot machines! Don’t think we will ever return to this den of inequity where the super rich flaunt their wealth in the faces of prostitutes, drug addicts and gambling addicts – it truly reflects all that is wrong with our world.
