Hey All,
After 9 action packed days at WPPI, Rina and I decided to chillax by spending some quality time together and walking The Strip. 18 of the world’s largest 25 hotels are located on this street in Las Vegas and it’s certainly changed since the last time my parents brought me here back in the days of Circus Circus.
Haha being photographers and all, we thought we’d blend in with the tourists and whip out our cameras to snap a few shots of the night scene. Despite the glamour in the photos, a local taxi driver told us that business is dire compared to last year as the global recession is hitting them hard. We noticed it at the McClellan Las Vegas Airport as traffic seems to have died down. Good for us as we can walk the Strip a lot faster this time around! =)
New York New York
The Fountains of Bellagio – Rina and I can sit here all night and enjoy the water performance every 15min. =)
Paris Hotel & Bally’s – Last year’s WPPI Convention venue
Bellagio (Lobby) – A vibrant display of glass sculptures
Bellagio (Botanical Gardens) – Theme: Chinese Zodiac – Year of the Ox
The Venetian (Hotel Lobby)
The Venetian (Tao) – Asian Fusion Restaurant…haha…reminds me of “Kai” in Edmonton
Love my Canon EF-S 10-22mm lens!! (Rina’s already giving me the “L” on her forehead). It’s by far my favourite lens to use in Las Vegas because of the sheer scale of everything. Can’t wait to be back home and share our trip with our family and friends!
Ciao peeps!
