Where is the best place you have visited?

Yeah fair point, the Balagio water show was pretty spectacular. Maybe I just had an overly-glamourised view of the casinos in my mind from Hollywood films and the reality I saw was hairy shouldered middle-Muricans walking round in flip flops and basketball jerseys. I felt it was too busy and tacky. But also could be because I was really pushed for time and maybe there were hidden gems I didn’t get to see.

IDM ..........I lived on Speyside for over 11 years at a place called Aberlour ( famous for it's whisky ) and worked as a field engineer throughout NE Scotland and up to Wick and across to Skye ....moved back south 3 years ago to North Lincs

I was at RAF Kinloss.  Had a house just outside Forres, in the way to Grantown.  Had looked for houses anywhere between grantown on Spey, Elgin, Inverness and all around the Black Isle and Cromarty Firth.

Was Aberlour the place with the walkers shortbread factory.?

Did you go watch any football whilst up there.?

I was at based in Stornoway for 3 years - great place. Went back up last year en route to Tain where my uncle lives... Went to see Inverness CT a few times whilst doing 'liaison' visits to Kinloss.

Have many relatives still in Edinburgh and love the place.... do the festival most years..

I'm was lucky (or maybe not) that I spent quite a bit of time in LV back in 1990's/2000's. The Bellagio has always been impressive and I enjoyed going down town when I was there.  I was lucky enough to see a couple of fight nights whilst there and managed to get free tickets to see Lennox Lewis fighting at Caesars Palace, Dire Straits playing at Bally's and Tom Jones at the MGM.

I rode the Deuce when they first brought it to "town". It was funny because the USA folks could not "get it" and mainly stayed downstairs

Still got the Tickets for the first day it opened

You really did miss lots I am guessing. I did 3 weeks once and still feel I missed things

Example ? The Fountains of Bellagio are magnificent - no other words to describe them. Just before midnight I used to always be there and they do almost a half hour "show" ending with of course te National Anthem

However within 400 yeards of there are the Chocolate Waterfalls of Bellagio - molten chocolate in 3 different varieties flowing non stop just for the visitors to look at AND the Chandalier in reception cost them a cool 600000 quid when it was built.

Been lucky enough to go to quite a lot of wonderful places. Think my favourites are standing on top of Table Mountain overlooking Cape Town and to see the penguins at Boulder and standing at what seemed to be the end of the world at Cape of Good Hope. Cape Town is probably my favourite city in the world to date.
Also loved the peacefulness of Meerufenfushi in the Maldives. It used to take me 20 mins every morning to walk round the island on the beach before I got back to where I started from. And the most gorgeous blue sea that you could wade out to for ages and feed the baby sharks. Awesome.
