VIVA LAS VEGAS-2ND TIME ‘ROUND

A little over a year ago we spent some time out at Lake Mead National Recreation and drove into Sam’s Town to take the shuttle bus down to the strip.

Well, we have turned a 3 day stay, into a 5 day stay into a two week stay here at Sam’s Town RV Park in North Las Vegas. One, the price was right so we couldn’t beat the rates. We got 25/7 security, swimming  pool & hot tub plus the free shuttle down to the strip.  We also caught an online promotion special and got 4 free breakfast to boot.

The temps have been in the 100’s each day and nights aren’t cooling down any, but we just run our AC, and spend time in the pool cooling off.

We have braved the hot temps and taken the shuttle bus down to the strip.  We always make sure we stay dehydrated with lots of water and a few beers.  We have seen things this time around that we didn’t see when we were here once before.

Some can afford to do shows here in Las Vegas; us, well we can’t afford to do the main show attraction, but that hasn’t stopped us from enjoying the free attractions.  You don’t realize what all there really is to see and do.

Here are just a few things that we have gotten to enjoy this time around:

The last time we were here we went at night and saw the Fountains of Bellagio, Sirens of Treasure Island, Volcanic at the Mirage to name a few.

We yet want to see the wildlife at the Flamingo, Show in the Sky at the Rio & Streetmosphere at the Grand Canal Shoppes.  So I guess this means we have to put up with the extreme heat and the  crowd of people at least one or maybe two more time.
