This set of pictures were all taken in and around Las Vegas. Taking pictures inside the casinos was not allowed for some reason so unfortunately no views of the serried ranks of slot machines and the people sitting endlessly inserting coins into them. Just in case this is not conveyed in the pictures it was very hot.

"This replica of the Sphinx guards the entrance to the Luxor where we stayed. You can't see it very well but the hotel is behind it complete with a huge laser which shone up into the sky and apparently can be seen for miles." |
"The Starship Enterprise. This was taken at the Star Trek Experience in the Las Vegas Hilton." |

"An inside view of the canals in the venetian Hotel. You could take a Gondola ride down it and cross it over one of the replica venetian bridges. Incidentally the 'sky' is a painted ceiling, this is all inside." |
"A full size pirate ship outside the Treasure Island hotel. No need to tell you what the theme was." |
