Adventure at Grand Canyon

Image
Adventure is worthwhile.” ~ Aesop. While in Vegas, we decided to take a tour to the Grand Canyon. Visiting the Grand Canyon, South Rim, was an incredible experience. Even though the journey getting there was a bit long, it was well worth it. There are about 10 trails at the South Rim and about 5 trails at the North Rim. Since we were at the South Rim we took the South Kaibab trail. The South Kaibab Trail is one of the trails that follows the ridgelines that provide panoramic views of the main gorge. In my video, I give you a fun tip when visiting the Grand Canyon. For more on Grand Canyon check on my latest video " 5 Favorite Things of Vegas"  —->  https://youtu.be/2vN-tD3- 9ww

The Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens is one of the attractions at Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Conservatory & Botanical Gardens are filled with beautiful trees and flowers. It is said that they change the gardens according to the seasons. The first time I visited the Bellagio Hotel, I remember walking through the lobby and seeing these bright oranges, browns umbrellas.

The flowers were pink, yellow, and purple and lemon trees. They had displays of butterflies, the sun, the moon, umbrellas, minia...

The LINQ High Roller Las Vegas and the reason I didn't go on it.

Kid you not, you can see The LINQ High Roller Las Vegas from miles away.  This thing is gigantic.  It has been said that it's bigger than the London Eye. It's considered the world's largest observation wheel.  The LINQ High Roller Las Vegas is located at The LINQ Promenade.  I highly recommend walking around the Promenade. There are a lot of shops, restaurants, and a great area for walking.   Now, I didn't go on it for several reasons. One, I get bored very easily. Yes, you can get on the High Roller and see some nice views of the city, but after 20 minutes or less, I want to do something else. I will not be able to get off and have to wait 40 minutes to get off. I don't like to be restricted like that.  Second, you can't go to the bathroom. You can drink while riding The High Roller but you can't go to the bathroom. What if you have the urge to go? You have to wait about an hour to get off the ride.  You have to go to the bathroom befo...
