Summary:
This is an overview of the things that you can do while in Vegas that are not related to gambling and are fun for the whole family.
The casino, when I say this word casino actually several things pop into my mind and I can give you a list of what these things are. But first, I think it is important to say that many people go to Las Vegas and Atlantic City for these reasons, not only just to gamble and this is so important when planning a vacation to Las Vegas.
Sure gambling is the base for all of this, but because of the glitz and glamour of Vegas in the 50's, 60's, and 70's it created a much larger lifestyle than just a bunch of grubby old men sitting around a dingy table playing poker in smoky little poker rooms.
As Vegas transformed into this megalopolis of entertainment and excitement, it gave to you something unique and fun that you just cannot find in another spot on the planet, not even in Atlantic City is it the same.
It gave you gaming and live entertainment with the hottest live acts that circle the globe. Anything from the newest rock 'n' roll to old school rap artists on Las Vegas stages. Comedians from all over perform in Vegas, as well as live magicians like David Copperfield. So it is partly because of splendor like this, and major acts like these coming together in one location that it makes it possible for a place like Vegas to exist. But really Vegas is an anomaly.
So this is what this is really about. Entertainment, food, and relaxation and recreation.
Coming to Las Vegas or even just going to visit a casino in the Caribbean or even in Atlantic City there is just so much more to do than sit around and play slots slowly draining yourself of your hard earned 500 dollars that you had put away solely for playing or entering one of the many poker rooms.
Instead of sitting around all the time eating cheap fried foods that the casinos serve for free while you play, look around or ask someone at the front desk what kind of shows may be happening at the casino in the time you'll be there. Or you could even find out what hot new clubs they host in the area or at the casino itself. Clubs are always great places to meet people that are on vacation and looking to have a fun time with someone new. Meeting new people isn't necessarily one of higher points of sitting at the slot machine for 10 hours a sitting.
Finding a nice restaurant in the area is also a good alternative to just spending another vacation doing the same thing by being in the room and then in the casino and back again never leaving the casino in a whole weeks time. Eating new things will also help broaden your horizons and maybe will help improve your experience of being at the casino when you begin to view it from the outside after being on the inside for so long.
So Finding other experiences at the casino and doing other things will make the whole experience that much better, think how nice it is to do new things and being adventurous on a vacation. And then you will leave feeling more positive about having been in Vegas or Atlantic City.
