Spring Break At The Flamingo

Vegas is full of young people on spring break. The Flamingo had pulsating music and the young ones formed a spontaneous conga line on the casino floor, while the blackjack dealer pretended not to notice. Then a cowboy and his lady friend joined in and pretty soon the whole casino was dancing.

Ballys Front Entrance

Ballys has a walk way wrapped in circular neon that seamlessly keeps changing color. What a great way to enhance an otherwise drab hotel.

Retro Vegas

Found a really interesting store on Main St near Charleston, Retro-Vegas. Lovely furniture, lamps and bric-a-brac. It's run by 12-year-old Ben, who has excellent taste.

First Friday

First Friday is a monthly fun event that's a combination street fair and art exhibit. All the downtown galleries throw their doors open and crowds come. The epicenter is Charleston and Main and you can wander about from 7 pm to 10 pm meeting strange and wonderful people.
