Google maps nicely showed me there was an aviation museum, mostly displays, and it was worth 45mn to read them, especially to learn about the Las Vegas Hacienda cessna that broke the flight time record (over 50 days without touching down). They did refueling in flight by flying over a fuel truck and refilling from a hose, impressive...
So, I was really in Vegas for EDC 2015, which was all night. In turn, that means that my days were short since I slept more than half that time.
I started by going to the Atomic Energy Museum again. I got there a bit earlier than last time, but due to taxi shortages, still got there late, only 1h15 before it closed, so I didn't finish it.
It was pretty cool to learn that they researched atomic propulsion
Here are random pictures of Vegas. The 2nd day, I went to have lunch at the Paris Eiffel Tower restaurant. It was super disappointing, borderline bad. It had been great for dinner, but lunch was just a total disappointment. I did get a good view of the Bellagio fountains though :)
Nice art I stumbled on:
Next, I went to see the 16:00 Povich animal and cat show again, because it's fun:
And next, I went up the Eiffel tower and then the stratosphere for a few views:
While at the stratosphere, I went to see a Michael Jackson imitator performing at the stratosphere. He was quite good actually:
Here is an excerpt:
The 3rd day, I went to the Mandalay Bay to see the aquarium and the Michael Jackson show:
horseshoe crabs mating
After the last night of EDC, I took an early flight home, and got a few shots from the plane:
electricity generators using light concentrators on a boiler. Cool...
It was a short trip in Vegas considering, but still time well spent.
