Piazza San Marco


Piazza San Marco, originally uploaded by rob-gizzy.

After breakfast we went to the Las Vegas Premium Outlet Stores for a bit of shopping - after all, what else is there to do in Vegas during the day? Spent a short while by the pool - but the very loud hiphop music and teenagers shaking their bootie in the pool was a bit much! It's really a place full of contrast - I mean they've recreated Venice - with the gondola's and everything in The Venetian hotel. On the other hand, so many people are walking around with cocktails, their arms full of tatoos, their skirts (what skirts) invisible, it's sleaze galore. Our evening was made though, first the Vegas version of The Jersey Boys, slightly different to the London version - and then a souper at Enoteca's on Piazza San Marco. Rob decided to have a drink at the bar @ Bally's while I tried my luck on the slot machines. $12 poorer, I decided to quit, it didn't look like I was going to hit the jackpot anytime soon. Well - that was Vegas - glad to have been there, but also glad to leave!
