Great choice for a weekend. Las Vegas isn't technically a country, but it sometimes feels like it is it's own planet :)
Just a couple hundred miles from me, I go there a few times a year (mostly passing through) and am always amazed. I'm planning to meet a couple of friends there for a vintage car and motorcycle auction in January. I'm not looking to buy anything, but the show is just stunning.
Your second picture gave me a little sadness. I typically stay at Circus Circus just off screen left in that photo. The Rivera is no longer there, the site is now part of the Las Vegas Visitors and Convention center. I would often go there early in the morning (like now. 0400) to play blackjack and drink their good coffee. I liked the place.

This is so good knowing you are conversant with this country, how is life over there @bigtom13

You must have really see a lot of this country, great to know that, so sorry anyway, knowing they took that away from you
The visitor's and convention center is a really big deal, too. Underneath where the Rivera was is the terminal for the 'Vegas Subway'. Dug by Tesla's Boring Machine and serviced by Tesla electric vehicles. I hope to be able to ride on the system in January...
That is amazing, you will I Strongly Believe in it
