[DML] Re: Vegas Baby!

["therealdmcvegas" <dmcvegas@xxxxxxxxx>]

Cruising the Strip in Las Vegas is going to be a difficult task.

1. How many people have cars that are ready to idle in heavy traffic
for about and hour and a half? (time assumed driving from the Famous
Las Vegas sign, to Sahara Ave on a Saturday night).

2. How comfortable would you be driving that stretch of road? HEAVY
traffic, rude taxi drivers, jay-walking pedestrians almost everywhere,
and only about 6"- a foot of clearance on each side of you. It is
honestly hell if you're not 100% comfortable with your car.

If you drive the strip, you do it to look cool, and nothing else.
Trust me, you will NOT be able to sight-see much, no matter what kind
of car you're driving. But if you're in a DeLorean and panic easily,
it will NOT be a fun driving cruise for you.

Maybe on an off-night, or after hours it might just work...

Hoover Dam is definetly a possiblity. On the Arizona side, they do
have a large parking lot that *might* fit all the cars. I say might
depending upon how many show up, and if the parking area is still
available due to ongoing construction.

There are LOTS of places to tour around town. The key is just going to
be finding what interests everyone which can be done. If there is a
culinary outing to be desired, believe me, fresh factory made
chocolate from Ethel M. would be much better than wine. No minimum
age, and everyone loves chocolate and fruit candies! Racetracks, car
factory tours, beautiful desert vistas, gorgeous sunsets, infinate
photo opprotunities..., you name it and it's there.

Gaming is only a small fraction of what's available there. Although
yes, there are Back to the Future slots available in some casinos if
you're feeling lucky! ;)
