So this last weekend I went down to Las Vegas with some friends and met my parents down there as well. We stayed in old downtown Vegas. In a hotel called the Plaza. I don't recommend it at all. Unless you are looking for cheap and don't care about your room or service much. To say the least this hotel has been marked off my list. The first night we went and checked out Fremont Street. It has a lot of old time casinos and what not. There were a lot of performers and vendors.
One of the performing acts that I thought was kind of cool was the Thunder dome. It was a dome where guys rode motorcycles around in. It was cool to see them go spinning around in the dome, but the most impressive part was when all 3 of them rode in the dome at the same time. I thought to my self I bet that took a lot of practice and a mistake would hurt.
Along the whole Fremont street the was an LED roof. The was millions of LEDs. They had a show on it every once in a while. That was quite impressive.

Sounds like a fun trip. I need to go back there. My best experience there was staying at the MGM Grand - nice place.
Oooh - I've never been to Ye Olde Strip. I always assume it's full of gun-slinging cowboys, and all the casinos have saloon-doors for entrances. Maybe I'll check it out next time.
