Recently my sister, two friends, and I went to Las Vegas for Spring break…It wasn’t planned destination, as a matter of fact we were considering Atlanta, as a destination for our spring break…it was the first spring break we actually got away all of us, we always had either work or school obligations to keep us inbound during the week off…But as my sister searched we saw las Vegas package with a reasonable price and we thought great something different to do…Well having my mom give us concent to go for 4 days to las Vegas wasn’t difficult as one would anticipate for Somali parent…The it was a whole different story for everyone else we told our plans too…Responses ranging from “oh nice joke” to “what would you do there” or “it’s sin city”…But Las Vegas is much more than that as we learned from our trip…One must go there with an open mind and clear idea of what they want to do…I mean yeah you can sit at a slot machine for hours and gamble, but there are other choices too…We walked down the las vegas strip and saw New York, Egypt, Paris, and Italy…And it was amazing, it was like walking into a different world from one block to another…We saw fantastic water shows and a definite must see for anyone who visit Vegas…We saw architectural beauties and phenomenal scence and took a ride on a gondela while in italy…It was one of those trip for life and we shouldn’t judge book by it’s cover or in this case a city by it’s reputation…Khadra
