A January 2006 trip to Las Vegas by sandyh0077
Quote: My husband and I took our first trip to Las Vegas.
Overview
Las Vegas is great if you like to gamble and have a few drinks. But this is not all yo can do here. My husband and I do not like to gamble much, so we did other things to occupy our time. It is very fun to visit all of the hotels. Each hotel has its own character and its own little shopping area. Also you have to visit shows and find great places to eat.
If you want to splurge, then try the buffet at the Bellagio. It's expensive but well worth it. I would not recommend the buffets at the Circus Circus Hotel or the Harrah's hotel. They are very bad.
My husband and I took our very first trip to Las Vegas NV. It was a wonderful experience. The best thing to do when you visit Las Vegas is to find a hotel right on the strip. It makes everything easier because you do not have to worry about driving you car and finding parking. Plus if you plan on gambling and having a few drinks, it is better to be walking distance to your hotel. Also take advantage of all the free shows that vegas has to offer. The best one is the water show that occurs every night at the Bellagio Hotel. Also Treasure Island Hotel has a wonderful pirate show every eveing that is fantastic to watch. Another favorite is the Carnival show at the Rio Hotel. You will feel like you are at Mardi Gras. Look online to see what other no cost or low cost activities that Las Vegas has to offer.
But if you are going to splurge on something, then see a show, especially Cirque du Soleil. Any one of those shows are great. We also enjoed the Variety Show at the Aladdin Hotel. Good luck!

Attraction
My husband and I went to the Harley Davidson Cafe along the Strip. The services was excellent. We were seated in a timely manner and the waiter was very friendly. He gave us time to pick our meal and made fun comments. While waiting for our food, we took pictures on a motorcycle and bought those photos. The food arrived and it was delicious. We both had turkey burgers, fries, cole slaw and dessert. Prices are very reasonable. Overall, I would highly recommend this cafe because it has easy access to the Strip, great food and services, and the prices are very affordable.
