Lethal Stuff At The Atomic Testing Museum

Don't know what's more lethal - that big, glowy thing or the Protecal can of 14-day survival. On the bottom, a caged camera they sent to the Chilean miners - what atomic testing has to do with trapped miners I'll never know.

Down In The Shelter

The Atomic Testing Museum has reproduced a 60s nuclear shelter Vegas style - inside Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra are entertaining as you sip on government issued emergency water and some woman has become separated from her arm.

Lounging, Drinking And Eating At The Cosmopolitan

Might as well call this Cosmopolitan Images from now on - it has such a different vibe from anywhere else (hope that lasts) that I've only been visiting here if only for the music.

Arriving At The Cosmopolitan

You know you've arrived, because it says so - and then you check in.

The Cosmopolitan Is Also A Cocktail

The Cosmopolitan is not only a casino resort, but a cocktail and they might serve the best ones in the world.

Free Live Music At The Cosmopolitan

And not just any old cheesy music. The sports book is turned into a music venue on weekend nights - top photo: the tremendous Davy Knowles, a young rock-blues genius and below, Eli "Paperboy" Reed, who gets the place stomping and rocking. Vegas lounge has been re-invented.

The Luxury Crystals Shopping Mall

Nobody buys anything at the Crystals mall - if millionaires shopped here, they wouldn't remain millionaires. It's a fantasy show place for expensive brand names and not exactly crowded with bargain  hunters.

Fun At The Cosmopolitan

Crowds arrive at the Cosmopolitan - you can have the best cocktail in the world at the Vespers bar (all fresh ingredients) or you can go upstairs for a quiet game of pool and a good book.

Vegas Overrun By Giant Rabbits

The Bellagio outdid itself in celebrating the Chinese New Year - the year of the giant rabbit. Pictured is the money our Asian guests bring us.

Escalators At The Cosmopolitan

Since the Cosmopolitan is tall, but narrow, escalators abound. Luckily, there's a bar at every stop in case you're parched after your journey.
