Leaving Las Vegas
Travel Around the World without Leaving Las Vegas
Las Vegas today is offering many of the wonders of the world on a much smaller scale to its visitors. There is really nowhere else on earth you can go and see all the sights and witness the thrill of the experience that is Las Vegas. With so much to do and see it's a wonder that anyone ever gets sleep in this great town. Look below for some of the many places to go and sights to see in Vegas that will quite literally have the world at your feet.
Paris Hotel and Casino Las Vegas presents the Eiffel Tower Experience. Quite literally this is a replica of the famed Eiffel Tower of Paris built at 1/2 scale. You can ride to the top of the tower and enjoy a view of the city from 460 feet above ground while pinpointing other landmarks that you may wish to try next.
Rio Suite Hotel offers the Masquerade Village Show in the Sky. This show is designed to bring the thrill of Rio's Carnival to Las Vegas visitors. This is a great show to witness or in which to participate. Enjoy the sights, sounds, and revelry that are unmistakably Carnival. This show is free to watch and costs $12.95 to participate.
Luxur Hotel and Casino takes you In Search of the Obelisk. This adventure takes you on archaeological digs searching for Pharaohs. This is a great adventure and takes you not halfway around the world. There are height restrictions for this ride so small children might not be best suited for this particular experience.
You can experience the thrills, chills, and spills of the Grand Prix at the Las Vegas Mini grand prix. This park is a fun day for the entire family and even features an Adult Grand Prix with Sprint Kart tracks that have high banks and a more authentic experience. This is a great way to have fun and invite a little friendly competition among family members.
If you'd like to experience Venice without traveling halfway around the world then you should really experience the Venetian Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. The highlight of your Vegas Venice experience should be one of the Gondola rides that you can take. You can book a private 2-person gondola for a romantic excursion while being serenaded by your gondolier.
While at the Venetian you can also check out the Guggenheim Hermitage Museum, which will have some of the best offerings from around the world in order to enhance your experience. You should also take the time to enjoy the beautiful Venetian inspired architecture of the hotel and casino while you're visiting in order to prolong the experience.
The Mirage offers a volcano for guests to experience. While this isn't quite taking your around the world, most of us do not get to experience the sight of a volcano morphing from peaceful waterfalls into streams of molten lava. This is definitely a must see show in Vegas and is free to the public. You can see this show from dusk until midnight every 15 minutes.
If you want an experience that will take you even further away you should try the Star Trek Experience at The Las Vegas Hilton Hotel and Casino. This will not take you to another country per se, but it will definitely take you into another world. Enjoy this encounter with alien creatures and an introduction to the future. Then take a stroll through the museum, which is home to some wonderful memorabilia from the television show and the movies.
Just remember that you are on vacation to get away from it all. Isn't it truly neat that you can literally do that and so much more in this unique and intriguing city? You can travel to different countries, experience different cultures, and literally go out of this world without ever leaving the city limits of Las Vegas. Who could ask for more in a vacation experience?

Can Alcohol Poisoning cause Permanent Lightheadedness?.?
Hi, my name is JM and on Sept 12th, 2009 I was in Las Vegas for my 25th birthday. I ended up drinking way more alcohol then my body could handle and ended up getting really sick. I then ended up throwing up a ton of the alcohol in the restroom. I stopped drinking that night and turned to drinking water and getting some food in my system. The next morning (Sunday) I woke up feeling completely horrible. This was the day we were all heading back home from our trip. The drive home was about an 8-9hr drive. When finally leaving Las Vegas I kept telling the driver that I was feeling really bad but everyone in the van insisted that I wait it out till we got back home. There were many times during that day I felt as if I were going to die, literally. I didn't know what to do but drink water and eat small snacks through out the day seeing that the driver would not take me to the hospital. We finally got back home around 11-11:30 that night and I was still feeling really horrible. At this point I was concerned because never had a hangover lasted the entire next day after drinking the night before. Let alone made me feel the way I was feeling. I ended up going to sleep and when I woke up the next morning (Monday) the feeling was so intense I started to freak out/panic. Around 10ish I made the decision to drive to the hospital and I ended up in the ER. I went through two IV fluid bags and the doctor told me that I was really dehydrated even though I had drink a ton of water the day before and felt as though I had flushed out whatever alcohol was still left in my body. He also told me that I did have alcohol poisoning. Anyways, It has just about been 1 year and 5 months to the day since the nigh I drank and I am constantly lightheaded all day long every day. I have had other health problems as well, including Anxiety and Panic Attacks. I have had numerous test done including an MRI, Cat Scan, EKG and numerous blood work done and every test seems to come back completely normal. I have never been the biggest drinker and before the incident happened I was in Perfect Health, Physically and Mentally. I had never had a health problem in my life!. I don't drink alcohol anymore but I am still suffering from constant lightheadedness. (The best way I can describe this feeling is, It's like having a hangover but always present.) I don't know what is causing this feeling and I am afraid/worried that this feeling is going to be permanent. The doctors don't seem to know what is going on either and they just keep giving me different medications to cope with it. I have been taking a medication called "Buspirone 5mg" which is for anxiety for a little over a month now but it doesn't seem to be working.
Is there anyone out there that might be able to tell me why I am feeling constantly lightheaded?, And if it was something caused from the alcohol itself or caused from something else. I have read about Stress and Anxiety and they both mention that they can cause a lightheadedness feeling, but it say that that feeling comes and goes. It doesn't say that that feeling is present all of the time. The only other thing I can think of is that my brain wasn't getting enough oxygen that night while I was sleeping. I am hoping that that is not the case. I have heard that that can cause irreversible brain damage which would mean that this feeling I have will be permanent. Honestly thinking about that scares me. I haven't given up hope yet and I am trying my best to stay positive that one day this feeling will go away.
If there is anyone out there that might be able to give me an answer as to why I am constantly feeling lightheaded and if this feeling will ever go away...I would greatly appreciate it. Even if you know of someone whether that person has been in the same situation as I or has been affected by constant lightheadedness and whether or not they have ever gotten better. It would be nice to know that I am not the only person who is going through something like this.
Anyways, Thank you for taking the time to read about my problems lol.
(Oh, my blood pressure is always normal every time I test it as well)
