You don't see that junk unless you go to certain areas...

We have been in San Francisco numerous times and if we saw a gay person... I couldn't tell you...

I have seen more gays in OKC than SanFran..
Wow...that's too bad you had such an awful experience.

We went for our 20th anniversary a couple years ago. Stayed at the Paris Hotel. It was GORGEOUS! And clean, and bright. I would recommend it for anyone.

We never saw the filth that you are speaking of. Maybe it's cuz we were in a different area or something.

We really enjoyed our time there getting to see the different attractions. We ate our anniversary dinner at the restaurant in the Eiffel Tower, and later went to the top to view the city at night. We were directly across from the Bellagio Fountains. That is incredible! I could have watched that for HOURS!

We enjoyed seeing the white tigers. They are beautiful animals! And other animals they had at various locations.

The city if full of architectural sights that are fascinating.

AND...we never gambled ANYTHING! Not even one little slot! Not even one little nickel! We just weren't interested, or tempted. It was great!

Good post Mrs. we stayed at the Paris too and just enjoyed all the shopping malls are which are beyond anything any other city has, and of course all the hotels like the New WYNN hotel! that place is beyond Opulant. Did you get to go to the shopping center in Ceasar's palace ?

they do Try to pass out porn on the streets but most people ignore them. No one can deny there is a lot of sin in Vegas and it's not a place one would want to stay for very long but a quick visit is not bad

We didn't do much shopping other than souvenir stuff. I knew that Ceasar's was right there, and we passed it many times, but never really had an opportunity to browse through there. We DID walk through a section of it though.

I'm not sorry though...I'm from PoDunk, Oregon...those fancy things just aren't necessary in my simple life here.

If I remember right...the Wynn Hotel was still under construction when we were there.

The only disappointment was that we didn't get to go to the Stratosphere. Hubby REALLY wanted to see that. I guess we'll save it for next time.

I say that if you can't handle the heat, stay out of the kitchen!

Seriously though...if someone has a weakness, I would not recommend they go...even for just a short visit.

Well you took my wife
And you took my kids
And you took that life
That I used to live
My pride, the pool, the boat, my tools, my dreams, the dog, the cat
Yeah I think that's just about everything
Oh I almost forgot
Do you want fries with that?

it's a just a place to go and mostly look. they have really unusual stores.
If you ever go again you MUST see the WYNN. i have never in my life seen a hotel like it. the Stratosphere has a roller coaster on top of it too did you see that ?? I think i'd pass on that one

Yeah...the rollercoaster was the whole attraction for hubby. He LOVES those things!

I just can't do it!!!

I will have to make sure we visit the Wynn if we ever go back there. Sounds incredible!
