The flight to Vegas was great. I am now a Jet Blue fan (especially since we also only paid $79 each way). We walked the Strip most of the day and I am not afraid to say that my feet hurt like a.....(insert something really painful here). We went down nto the old Strip where all the original casinos were like the Golden Nugget, the Frontier, and the Freemont. The district spent a couple million on revitalizing it and put in this crazy, awesome thing that looks like a tent which has an amazing light show every half hour after it gets dark. all the casinos also had ridiculously cheap food and beverages ($6.99 for a prime rib dinner and 99 cents for a margarita). The highlight of my night though was the fact that the Golden Nugget actually sold fried oreos, now I didn't actually eat one because looking at the sign, i could feel my arteries closing but knowing that they exist....priceless
