Las Vegas

While texting with Asya on WhatsApp the other day, she asked if I had any photographs of Las Vegas (she's currently in her hometown of St. Petersburg, Russia).

At the time, I only had photographs of the Riviera RV Park. I figured that since she asked, I would take a few while on the way out of Las Vegas.

There are several streets in Las Vegas named after performers who had a big impact on the city. For example, there's streets named after Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley (note, although it is named Elvis Presley Blvd., it does not take drivers all the way to Graceland in Memphis).

I went down to downtown Las Vegas and it is hardly recognizable. Progress, I guess.

On the Las Vegas Strip, I noticed that there's a lot of construction going on.

Here's some photos:
