A shot from my iPhone of the new Cosmopolitan tower framed by part of City Center.
Just one thing to add... I hate the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino's Wi-Fi. Even as a paid user, the connection is worse that shit.
What started as a podcast about nothing in particular betrayed my impending sojourn to Vegas, with some memories and travel tips to boot.
With an impending trip to Las Vegas starting pre-dawn tomorrow morning, I reflect on some of my history with SinCity and what has become the de facto Vegas itinerary.
Concerning several topics including the impending arrival of the parents, sensory deprivation, perfumed air, a new aria, and the best laid plans.
I received a letter from the Venetian hotel in Las Vegas (two weeks after my trip mind you) confirming my credit line had been approved. Perhaps what some would consider a bit late, but stranger than the timelines was the return address. I never thought of Malmo, Sweden (or anywhere in Sweden mind you) as a clearinghouse of bulk mailings. Is there a burgeoning cottage industry in Vegas mail coming out of Northern Europe? I hesitate to think of the distances this paper would have traveled had I not been at this address anymore.
Just some quick facts:
Las Vegas to Hamilton, Ontario - 3107km,
Hamilton, Ontario to Malmo, Sweden - 6354km,
Las Vegas to Malmo, Sweden - 8713km
