I visited Las Vegas (with pictures)

Post by SoCalli V8 »

My Mum and Dad came to visit me here in LA and I drove them 300 miles to experience.... > Las Vegas.

We had an Awesome time, even tho we don`t gamble.... We love to see all the beautiful animals.... Lions, Tigers, Cheetahs, Dolphins, Sharks and other fish.

We stayed at the Stratosphere Tower.... the 1000 ft + high view was Absolutely Insane....

Here are a couple of pic`s ......

Only in Vegas would they suspend people in a (rediculously unsafe looking, :yikes: ) contraption overhanging a building,that is crazy!

Looks like you saw lots of things and had a good time with your folks, thanks for taking the time to upload the pics and share with us Darren :cheers:
