Like I said in my previous post, I lived in Vegas for over three years (Sept. 1999 - Oct. 2002), so I have been to "The Strip" more times than I can count. This (grainy, pre-digital era) picture was taken in 2000 of me by the famous Vegas sign leading up to the strip with Mandalay Bay in the background. 
Spring 2000: Me with my friend, Veronica, who flew in from Chicago to visit me. Here we are inside the Venetian, one of my favorite hotel/casinos.
March 2000: My parents and little brother came out to visit me! Here we are at the very top of The Stratosphere (after Ricky and I went on the roller coaster at the top) overlooking Vegas.
Verdict: I absolutely LOVE Vegas! I have heard many people say that they have no desire to go to Vegas because they don't gamble. Well, neither do I, but I was thoroughly entertained with the city for over three years! There are so many fabulous shows, restaurants, concerts, sights, etc. And virtually all of the casinos are hotels that are absolutely amazing to walk through. And parking (including valet) is free! So, yes, regardless of whether or not you gamble, "The Strip" is a must-do!
