This summer I was lucky to go to Vegas with my sisters and no kids. It has been quite a long time since we went just us girls, I'm talking eight plus years. So much has changed since the last time I was there no one gambles the way they used to. I would have loved to have been around during the rat pack days when the mobs ran the joint and clubs hardly existed. Kids now a day have turned the Vegas economy upside down, no one wants to gamble, all they want to do is go clubbing and booze up in their rooms. I remember when slot machines were not computerized and did not cost a penny to play. I miss the old Vegas, the loose change, the $10 buffet, and real people gambling at the tables. I know times have change, but people used to spend money and enjoy the entertainment. I will always cherish the old Las Vegas memories, when a few of the old casinos like the Sahara, and Frontier still existed. I remember the days of collecting your winnings and scooping them into a bucket, and then carefully walk slowly to the cashier booth in exchange for dollar bills.
A 5 star review I do have to give is the cirque du soleil show "Love"(The Beatles tribute). The show was amazingly incredible, the non-stop action, along with a very beautiful story line. Would I watch this show again? Absolutely! The cost of popcorn and pop was a bit much ($20) but it came with a souvenir cup. I think I will return to sin city this winter, but this time with my children so they can see what all the hype is about. I am pretty sure I will end up spending a lot of time at circus circus, but the feeling of nostalgia is always worth it.
The greatest part of my last trip was being with my sisters, I had missed it so much! The relationship I have with my sisters is like no other, no one understands they bond we have and I know that no one ever replace it either.
