But what I can tell you for sure. Came to Vegas – spend money. Or fly around this city. This is where the Vegas atmosphere is. Everything is aimed at this. All of these hotels, restaurants, casinos, pools and gaming centers.Great! Everything sparkles and glitters. Probably fun. And in the daytime, the views are probably worse … They all make the lights magical.
