Viva Las Vegas

Las Vegas at Night

 

 

My sister in law offered to keep the kids for a week so we could take a vacation just my wife and I. Suddenly a list of places I’ve been wanting to go, but didn’t have the time or the opportunity to go started rushing through my mind. I quickly thought of Punta Cana (D.R) where I heard the all inclusive packages are really attractive, Cancun (which I wanted to go back after spending 4 days there), Las Vegas or a Caribbean cruise.

I discarded Cancun because I’ve been there already and I wanted to go to a new place. I always enjoy cruises, but after doing some quick search I couldn’t find any cruise with an interesting itinerary, other than the same old  port of calls (by the way someone who works for the cruise industry told me that almost all the cruise lines decided to leave a lot of their ships in Europe during this summer because it was more profitable for them to charge passengers in Euro than in Dollars) I did check into Punta Cana, but I needed to save some money for our annual family vacation to Orlando in a month and Punta Cana would be too much money. So my last choice was Las Vegas.

Welcome back!

Posted in Uncategorized  by Traveler on August 1st, 2008

After several months of taking the original blog down, I had to bring it back up. Traveling is still my passion and I felt like I was missing something by not being able to write about my experience. So I decided to bring my blog back, create new forum for people to share their travel experiences and opinions and continue writing about the travel industry.

I closed the blog when it was already hitting closed to 10,000 visitors a month and with several links to other blogs. I am hoping my old readers still find this site interesting and come back.

The reason I closed the original blog was because I was involved in another project and between my regular job and my other responsibilities I really didn’t have too much free time in my hands.

In the following dates, I will be posting my experience during my first visit to Las Vegas. A wonderful city that you should visit at least once. I got an unbelievable deal on the airfare and hotel and I’ll tell you all about it.

For now, that’s it. If you are an old reader, welcome back. If you are visiting the site for the first time, stick around and thank you for dropping by.
