Back in 1996, when I visited the US for the first time, I visited Vegas as well. Fast forward to now and we found a really cheap deal, too good to pass and went on to revisit the sin city.

I was curious to see how I would feel about it this time around, 9 years later, given that my perspective on many things has changed. And sure enough I did feel different. The city no longer impressed me as I remembered it back in 96. Even though the population and the hotels and attractions have exploded in size and numbers, if you take away the giant hotels and gambling, free drinks and not so cheap food buffets the city would has very little to offer.

In any case, the highlight of the trip was definitely to see two very different yet, fantastic shows and if Vegas is good its the shows. We saw KA by Cirque du Soleil and The Blue Man Show and I highly recommend both of them.
