Vegas offers taste of everything

WOW. It’s a small word with a big impact, and one used unsparingly in Vegas.

You can’t help yourself. It tumbles off the tongue like quarters from a slot machine.

I’m walking down Las Vegas Boulevard. It’s nighttime on the Strip and I’m soaking up one wow-moment after another. The Bellagio fountains sway like a ballet troupe. Wow. There are rollercoasters, pyramids, real gondolas gliding down fake canals in The Venetian. Wow. There’s a third-sized replica Eiffel Tower outside Paris (the resort that is, though I wouldn’t be surprised to find the entire city here some day). Wow.
