Out and About in Las Vegas – The Fremont St Experience

Wanda — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 05:52:00 +0000

One of my favorite places in Las Vegas is Fremont St. This is a happening place where every night there is exciting live entertainment and the fantastic Fremont St Experience – which is an awesome light and sound show. Although it is now easy to get to Fremont St from the Strip, now that the Deuce buses run to downtown, I still like to stay in the downtown area and usually stay at the Golden Nugget. This summer Fremont St is running the ‘Sounds of ’69 Vegas or Bust’ with live bands playing the music of the era. Which suits...

During our stay at the Golden Nugget Hotel and Casinowe ate at the Plaza Hotel and Casino’s buffet on numerous occasions for both breakfast and dinner.

The Strip is full of enormous hotels that take up acres of land so walking from one end of The Strip to the other takes a long time and more if you go into the various casinos for a look around. So walking down Freemont St at night was an enjoyable experience and the atmosphere is intimate and friendly as tourists...

An Interesting Time at the Bus Stop In Downtown Las Vegas

Wanda — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 10:02:43 +0000

Daylight saving began today so we ended up having brunch rather than breakfast. If you are looking for an inexpensive place to eat where the food is plentiful and really tasty, then you can’t go past the Lucky 7′s restaurant at the Plaza Casino in Downtown Las Vegas. Meals cost $7.77 (before tax) so it ends up costing us $16.74 for two, a great deal really. After brunch we headed back to the Golden Nugget hotel and decided to play the slots and lost of course. We have been having a lucky run so I guess it was inevitable that our...
