Our trip to Las Vegas started with Delta Airline flights. Unfortunately we were not able to get any direct flight so we had to change plane in Minneapolis-St. Paul. Because of the timeliness of the flights this turned out to be no problem.
What was a problem that the plan on the first leg of our flight looked like an old beat up used car with chipped paint. It was some kind of Airbus model and the inside was very symplistic. There was absolutely no inflight entertainment of any kind. No music, no video. We just sat and stared into the thin air or into the seats front of us during the entire our hours.
Very annoying. Thankfully the plane for the final leg into LV was really high tech and we were not bored. (This was an American made plane!)
We rented a car and drove to our hotel and by about 8:30 pm we were all settled in.
In the following days we walked a lot, visited all the old and some of the new places and enjoyed every one of them.
Unfortunately, the weather was not the most favorable. Generally it was cool. We should have brought more arm clothing than we did but we still managed.
Our hotel has a large pool and we were able to visit twice during our stay and that was good.
Interestingly, this time the temperature didn't go much above 70 degrees Fahrenheit while in last August when we were there the first time it rarely went below 100.
As the smart people say live and learn.
