we've never taken the kids to vegas for good reasons, but we were so close and we thought they might like to see the lights at night. now they know why we've never taken them and why we don't plan on going back!! ..and we didn't even step foot out of the car! it was THAT BAD!!! sydnee hated it regardless of all the lights! thank goodness!!!
