We (Mr. Makarma) are fascinated by Las Vegas. One of the things that fascinates us most is the city's ability to constantly reinvent itself. One moment it's an adult playground, then it's a family vacation destination, then it's an adult playground once anew.
Though the current spate of resort construction is leaning toward the production of sleek glass buildings, our very much loved city also went through a phase where it attempted to replicate many of the other wondrous places found on Earth. Although some of these attempts were pulled off better than others, we credit them all with reminding us of all the wonderful places one can visit.
There really are pyramids in Egypt that are beyond description and the area surrounding Lake Cuomo is beyond beautiful. The recreated Venice is certainly nice enough, but there's nothing quite like having an espresso at the real one, and it really is quite the experience to hang out where Hemingway (the real Hemingway) hung out.
