vegas trip *56k beware

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Great pictures! In Vegas there are several aquariums and probably more aquarium people than any city in the US. Just to name a few is of course Shark Reef in Mandalay Bay (which does have some bad exhibits), The new shark tank at the Golden Nugget Swimming pool (complete with water slide going through the shark tank), Caesar's palace has the King Nepture tank that comes to life every hour (as well as several suites with aquariums), Silverton Casino with its coral reef, Mirage with its lobby tank (which we are redoing this next month) and the dolphins, Rain Forest Cafes, Bass Pro Shop at the Silverton, that is just naming a few. Most big hotels have some aquariums either in the lobby, casino, or in high roller suites. For an aquarium junkie it is a great place to visit, just stay in the air conditioning!!!!

Here are a couple of the ones that we did,

Vegas is great to visit, not to live there though. XP Only things I like about it are the really hot girls, the city lights at night, and some of the shows. It's all about the shows.
 
I want to check out that Gold Nugget swimming pool now! I didn't know that was there. I only knew of Mandalay Bay and the Mirage. Great pics! Next time I'm there, I got to hit up those places.
