Default Conscious Growth Workshop / questions about Vegas

Who's going to this? I'm going to try to!
I'm only 19 though, what would I be able to do in the evenings? and would it be safe for me to go alone? And is walking in Vegas any good? I'm thinking of flying in, but I don't want to rent a car (I think 19 is too young anyway..).

Yeah, just walking along the strip and seeing the sights is fun enough. I did that for a few days with an ex-girlfriend years ago. Check out the different hotels and the magic shops and all of that fun stuff. It's safe to go alone... just use common sense. Stay on the strip... you'll never be alone.

The Vegas Strip is one of the safest places at any time of day or night. There are lots of interesting things to see and do even if you're under 21.

Never jaywalk in Vegas though. Pedestrians do get hit by cars (often driven by drunk people) more often than average. I make a habit of not standing too close to the curb while waiting for the light to change. You don't want to lose a foot or toe when someone miscalculates their turn.

If you're watching a show outside like Treasure Island Sirens (hot chicks and hot guys!) or the Bellagio fountain or the Mirage Volcano keep a hand on your purse or wallet as sometimes pick pockets go through the crowd since everyone is jostling and distracted by the show.

Other than that Vegas is very safe. The security guards are highly trained and ready to do battle, very vigilant, and there are cameras everywhere.

You can see a show in the evening. So many to choose from. Most start at 7pm or 10pm. Since you'll be getting out at 5pm each day you'll have time to grab some dinner and get to a show pretty easily.

If you stay on the strip, you don't need to rent a car.

You can get a taxi to drive you from the airport to your hotel (and it's not far either as the airport is right next to the strip). Actually, a number of hotels also have shuttles to the strip, so if you go to one of the major hotels, I'm sure you can use their shuttle to get picked up at the airport and bet taken back.

There is a train that can take you up and down the strip if you want to go to a show a little down from where you're staying. I haven't been on it myself, but I know it's there.

There are private shuttle services that run shuttles between the airport and the Strip for about $6 each way, but local laws actually prohibit the hotels from running their own shuttles.

So you'll probably be doing this again in early 2010? There's just no way I could make it to this one..
