Lifes a Beach!<br />
If you think that the beach doesn’t exist in Las Vegas then you are mistaken. Mandalay
Bay Hotel has its very own 11 acre beach equipped with a wave pool (with waves that
can reach 6ft high!), lazy river, 3 swimming pools and 2,700 tonnes of sand. 
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
The pool hours are 7.00am to 8.00pm and gets very busy in the summer months so make
sure you get there early and reserve a seat.<br />
There are plenty of things to do at the Beach, if you don’t fancy a dip there is a
3-story, glass fronted Beachside Casino (what do you expect – you are in Las Vegas). 
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
On the first level you can enjoy some snacks in the open air Beach Bar and Grill,
the second floor is the casino – blackjack, roulette and craps with an amazing view
of the sparkling pool. 
</p>
          <p>
On the third floor are five villas soleil with fantastic views of Mandalay Bay Beach
that accommodate up to 16 guests with cabana service and access to a private, third
level pool.
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
In addition to the above Mandalay Beach also offers the Moorea Beach Club, guests
can enjoy a European style pool experience. Guests do need to be over 21 to enjoy
this feature, there are 2 dipping pools, cushioned chaise lounges and a private pavilion.
There is a charge for the above.
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
During the summer there are a number of concerts played on a one off stage above Mandalay
Bay Beach, the public are encouraged to chill on the beach or have a paddle whilst
listening to the popular music!

        <p>
          <font style="font-size: 12px;">Las Vegas offers more than 300 days sun a year and
is hot and dry most of the time, rain is extremely rare, with no more than 4 inches
a year.</font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-size: 12px;">Springtime starts in March until June, temperature
ranges from 9°C until 23°C. Probably the best time to visit Las Vegas as its not too
hot and there aren’t too many tourists.</font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-size: 12px;">Summertime is the end of June until the middle/end
of September and is hot!! The temperature ranges from 22°C to 27°C in August . </font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-size: 12px;">Autumn again is a nice time to visit Las Vegas as it’s
a little cooler – the end of September to the middle of December. Temperatures are
between 22-28°C. There are a lot of US holidays (Thanksgiving, sporting events) on
during this period so the crowds might get a little busier than usual.</font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-size: 12px;">Wintertime can get very cold, as low as 4°C in December
so make sure you take a jacket with you.</font>

          <p>
Want to go to Las Vegas but cant find a babysitter – take the kids with you! There
is plenty for children to do in Las Vegas, so bring them with you. This is one place
I can guarantee they will not get bored.
</p>
          <p>
Here are a few suggestions of what they will enjoy:
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
            <b>Tournament of Kings at Excalibur</b>
          </p>
          <p>
A themed dinner show with a difference, you can eat with your hands and are encouraged
to be as loud as you like! 
</p>
          <p>
The audience are transported to King Arthurs court to celebrate the return of his
son. The Kings challenge their skills with jousting, swords and competition. Be alert
for the evil wizard Mordred, the kings must unite if the evil wizard is to be defeated.
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
            <b>Adventuredome at Circus Circus</b>
          </p>
          <p>
Adventuredome is a huge indoor theme park. 5 acres of rides and attractions under
one roof, what child wouldn’t love that!!
</p>
          <p>
The tried and tested ride is the Canyon Blaster (not for small ones though, minimum
height of 4ft) A double-loop, double corkscrew rollercoaster reaching speeds of 55mph
– not for the faint hearted!
</p>
          <p>
There are junior and family rides for the smaller ones (Minimum 2.75ft). There is
also rock climbing and bungee jumping, miniature golf, an arcade and FREE Clown shows!
What more could you ask for, definitely worth a visit.
</p>
          <p>
 
</p>
          <p>
            <b>Lion Habitat at MGM Grand</b>
          </p>
          <p>
Only 1.5 inch glass is separating you from the lions, fancy it?
</p>
          <p>
If you love watching lions in their natural habitat then make a stop at the MGM Grand,
there are 31 lions in total 20 females and 11 males although only a few lions are
out at a time. When they aren’t at the MGM the lions live at a 8.5 acre ranch 12 miles
from the MGM Grand. They have a special animal trainer and conservationist looking
after them.
</p>
          <p>
Presentations are given daily but does depend on the lions and their behaviour if
you are lucky you may be able to watch them being hand fed.

    <content type="html">&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Did you know that The Las Vegas Monorail has carried
more than 27 million passengers since it has opened.&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;If walking the strip of 
&lt;st1:city w:st="on"&gt;
&lt;st1:place w:st="on"&gt;Las Vegas&lt;/st1:place&gt;
&lt;/st1:city&gt;
is taking its toll on your legs why not take the monorail? &lt;span style=""&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Its
quick and easy and gives you more time at your destination rather than walking there!&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Tickets start from $5 for a one ride ticket or $40
for a 3 day pass and its easy to hop on and off with 7 stations to choose from and
the bonus is it is air conditioned!!&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Trains arrive every 4-12 minutes (5-6 mins during peak
time) and times are travel are 7-2am Mon-Thurs and 7-3am Fri-Sun.&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

If you are feeling hungry one evening and fancy a change why not opt for a Mexican
meal? I have heard great reports about Taqueria Canonita at the Venetian Hotel.
A true Mexican eatery with an American twist, Taqueria Canonita provides a variety
of Tacos, tostadas and quesadillas made with grilled meats, vegetables and seafood.
For a recommendation on what to have I suggest Sopa de Tortilla for starter and main
course I would go for the Shrimp enchiladas.
</p>
          <p>
If you fancy a cheaper meal you can order the Taco Platter with some chips and salsa
for starters. For dessert it’s simple, tequila and more tequila!
