Desert Rose

I was rummaging through some old stuff when I chanced upon these pictures taken many moons ago. I still cannot believe it has been so many years ago that I once lived in the US of A. I reminisce the fond memories which I believe will grow old with me. Enjoy…

想不到时间过得真快，一瞬间已隔了许多年。

好怀念在美国的日子。虽然已经物逝人非，美好回忆依旧。

久々アメリカに住んだ。経験が楽しんだ。将来機会だたら、も一回を帰ろう。

綺麗写真を見て下さい。どうぞ。

Harrahs

Inside Harrahs … where the cherubic angels will watch over you as you gamble.

The Mirage … where if you lose at the tables …

… you will be fed to the White Tiger enclosed within the hotel.

The Venetian … where you can cruise on a gondola and get serenaded by a singing Italian (yeah … I know they are not really Italians but a girl can dream).

Caesars Palace … home of Julius Caesar, the Great who sometimes invite Jerry Seinfeld & Celine Dion over for post-dinner entertainment.

Excalibur … where you can hold court alongside King Arthur.

New York New York … Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, & the evil Wall Street.

Monte Carlo … where you can use the Monte Carlo simulation model to predict your winning odds.

Fremont Street … bright lights galore.

More glitter and glamour along Main Street.

Finally, just for the boys …

Las Vegas is not called “Sin City” for nothing. Plenty of girly bars all over the place.

First-timers to LV will almost certainly be dazzled by the enigmatic bright lights, the constant ringing of money and the relaxed-party-till-you-drop mood. These are disguised to induce/charm/hypnotise one to spend more money at the gambling tables.

As for me, I really enjoyed the simple and cheap thrill of visiting and being mesmerised by the regal and opulence of the various themed hotels. Its a shame I did not get a good shot of the famed Bellagio fountains.

Hope you have enjoyed LV as much as I did. In my opinion, you should visit LV at least once in your lifetime.

Remember the saying … what happens in Vegas stay in Vegas.  : )
