LAS layover

One lap jog of Las Vegas via Paradise Rd – Riviera – (the)Strip – Flamingo Drive. Plenty of desert heat and hard pavement sidewalk. The wide open front doors of the casinos beckon tourists while allowing huge cold air to spill outward conditioning the blvd. Las Vegas is a spectacle. Even in the harsh sunlight, giant LED powered LCD video billboards dazzle. Traditional barkers have been surpassed with surround sound audio, which is synchronized to seamlessly play the width of a resort building, time shifting so as to prevent echo. It’s a kind of twisted adult theme park with shades of pirates-of-caribbean sin. Surprising though, to see other runners taking in these sights with exercise shoes on.
