Vegas Day Two: Gaining Momentum

The day was pretty cool with a start at Paris for breakfast because I usually like that meal the least, but they spoil you at the buffet. Crepes made-to-order, veal sausage, pate and other unusual delights French people (allegedly) cook. The monorail system around the Strip is awesome too. Twenty bucks for ten rides definitely saves on cabs and rental cars. If they could just get it to go further south than MGM Grand! Here are some awesome pictures from the Voodoo Lounge which is on the top of the Rio. From there, you get a great view of the Strip from the west side of it. Unfortunately, I have a fear of heights. The glass elevator trip up 50 stories was terrifying so I had to face the control panel until we finished either direction. It was rather windy too so this added to my sense of fear. There is an inner recessed area from the railing, but I couldn’t venture too far from the bar near the center and indoor part of the place. Vegas is the city built on math yet I can’t control the emotional part of my mind when it comes to great heights. The really close shots were taken by Jose because I was consumed with my fear of falling and making a big stain in the parking lot. Enjoy the view though! (dead link)
