Any trip to America and the west coastal area needs to take in a trip to Las Vegas. This city is famous the world over for many things and can make a great destination for anyone from families to couples and groups of friends looking to have a good time. But what are the top Las Vegas attractions?

Well, this is really going to come down to what you are looking for when you go there as there is so much on offer. The main thing that the place is famous for are its massive casinos. Here you are able to take part in all sorts of gambling experiences with more or less every game you can imagine. If you are not there to gamble, however you can also take in one of the many shows that will be on at all of the different hotels and theatres in the city. All of the biggest stars of the music industry have played in Vegas and there is always a big start in town.

Another common reason why people go to Vegas is to get married. It has become famous for people jumping ship and eloping in order to have a quick ceremony and tie the knot. The amount of stories of people actually getting married and not remembering it the nest day much be enormous!

But what if you are here to do some sight seeing? what are the top things on offer?

Well, first of all you have the fountains at the Bellagio. This is one of the most famous land marks in the area and something that really needs to be seen for anyone going to the city. In fact, being that they are right in the middle of town you will not be able to miss them, with the water jets shooting all the way up to about 250 feet and encompassing an area of over 1000 feet. The best time to see these great fountains in during the evening when they are all lit up with different colours and choreographed to some great music.

Another top thing to take a look at will be lion habitat at the MGM grand. This is simply a must see for any big cat and nature enthusiast and the habitat where the lions live go up for several levels and allow you to really get up close and personal with this magnificent creature.

You can also take a look at secret garden and dolphin habitat. This is pretty much considered to be the official zoo in the city and it houses plenty of wonderful animals. If you are looking for anything that is comparable to sea world then it is certainly advised to set aside some time right here and take in all of the dolphin shows that you can manage.

Last of all, the circus circus adventure dome theme park is somewhere that you need to see if you have any interest in adventure parts. It is one of the worlds largest indoor theme parks and comes with all of the great trimmings that you would usually expect from a top quality park.

Disney World Revisited – It is a Magic Kingdom

Travel

As soon as I got off the plane in the Orlando International Airport I noticed something was different. It had been a long time since I had been to Disney World and I knew I was in for a special treat. We took an airport shuttle to the hotel and the adrenaline started flowing. I was getting antsy like a little kid. We had planned on going out to dinner after we checked in and then come back to the room to relax and get a fresh start in the Magic Kingdom in the morning but once we were there I couldn’t wait.

We decided to hit the Magic Kingdom that evening! The Disney classics are always great and we had seen them so many times I knew we could knock out our favorite rides and attractions that evening. That would give us some extra time to visit Epcot and the other parks on the following days. I love taking photos in the Magic Kingdom and with my handy pocket tripod I can get some great night shots. Cinderella’s Castle is awesome at night and when you get just the right shot it feels good. I played with some settings and was able to get my wife’s face, in focus, as well as most of the castle. She hates when I do that because it takes a few tries, I never said I was a photographer. If you have never been then you may not know the Magic Kingdom was the first park built in Disney World. For me it still holds the same magic it did in the beginning. Some of the attractions I had to visit were Pirates of the Caribbean and the Country Bear Jamboree. Regardless of your age, the Magic Kingdom is a great time. I have heard you can still get married in front of the Castle but the cost is quite high so if you are planning your wedding and you just hit it big in Vegas or at the track then check it out.

So the next morning we woke up a little late and my wife decided we should visit Epcot Center. If you aren’t familiar with Epcot it’s themed after different countries. The idea is that you can spend a day and get a feel for the culture and cuisine for a number of countries. At 300 acres it is about twice as large as the Magic Kingdom. You can visit the 11 countries in 1 day but I recommend that you plan for two days at Epcot. If you try to see it all in a day you will be exhausted. There are always street performers and Disney characters to stop and watch and you visit each pavilion to get a feel for the culture. There are also rides like the Spaceship Earth that only takes about fifteen minutes to ride after what is usually quite a wait to get on. The test track go-carts are popular if you have kids and the Land Pavilion has some very interesting slow moving educational rides.

As our days continued we visited Hollywood Studios, formerly known as MGM Studios. There are rides and shows based on movies like Indiana Jones and Star Wars. They even have a Jedi Training Academy now so your kids can light saber fight Darth Vader. One of the most popular rides is the Tower of Terror so be prepared for a long wait, we skipped that one. I always enjoy the Studio Backlot Tour, another wait plus it takes over 30 minutes to complete so there goes another day, over before it started. OK I’m starting to remember why I haven’t been back for a while. Where did all these people come from? Ha!

On our last day visiting Disney World, we took on the Animal Kingdom. We had never been to this park before. Everyone makes a big deal out of the Tree of Life but to me it’s a man-made tree with animals carved in it, yeah I got smacked for that one. Seriously, it pales in comparison to the “real” animals they have there. My camera and I enjoyed the animals. They also have some good rides and a lot of entertainment. Maybe because it was a new experience, I don’t know, but I enjoyed this day the most.

Going to Disney World was a great experience once again. This is a recommended vacation for anyone whether you have a large or small family. It brings you back to the innocence of being a child, and you will leave with a smile and some great memories. Thanks again Mickey.
