Vegas, What to see and do!
We are not big gamblers. We are staying at Duck Creek RV Park (Thanks again to one of you great Forum contributors). Want to drive the strip at night just for the experience. Want to walk aroun...

As as a Family, we visited Vegas in Dec 2004 during my son's senior year in High School. It was awesome! We did not spend a single penny gambling and we were on he "go" constantly for 5 days. There was so much to see and do then (even for families), I can't imagine what it's like now, 11 years later. We visited as many casinos as we could. Not the gambling tables, but the shops and the malls built inside them. We rode the gondola at the Venetian, when to the M&M store, and on and on and on. We could have stayed another week ---- easy and probably not taken it all in. Then there are the various shows, entertainment, and all the tours and stuff in the area. Oh, you won't be limited for things to do and see (without spending any money gambling). There's only as much to do as you will is to do it!
We stayed at Circus Circus. We did not have the camper. We flew. But i had envy, because outside our window, right below, was the camper park. I was so envious. But we just didn't have the time to drive it from Indiana and back.
My daughter (16 years old at the time), collected the "advertisement cards" with the ladies photos on them. I WAS CLUELESS. I was shocked when she showed them to me. I asked her were she got them. She said, from every street corner. They were just handing them out! Well, this old guy simply was too intrigued with every thing else to even notice "that" little part of Vegas. My daughter said was collecting them for her friends at school .... Like I said, I was clueless. But she had a lot of fun!
Now my son and daughter, my son just turned 18 on Dec 11 of that year, were in one of the motels in the evening, got caught on one of the upper floors when they were closing off the lobby area for a floor show. They couldn't get out of the building (or maybe didn't want to. Well, they started sectioning the area off and the kids were still inside the area sectioned area. So, he just stayed and kind of blended into the furniture.
Then the floor show started. My SON was so excited when he came back to our motel for the night. It was the first time he'd ever seen a topless dancer! You know, he'll be 30 years old in December of this year, he's got his own little boy now even. But he still talks about that event like it was yesterday and still grins REAL big how he was able to "sneak in" without really have to actually "sneak in!"
So you know .... there's just a little bit of everything going on in Vegas for just about everyone. It took us about the first day to figure out where restaurants were, just to find out, the whole time, they were right under our noses.
Hope you enjoy your visit, and HAVE A LOT OF FUN!
