Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon
When I think of an American place worth a visit, I think of
somewhere I went in which I had an exceptional time and learned
much new knowledge, one vacation I went on sticks out most in
my mind. I chose to write my speech on Las Vegas, Nevada and
the Grand Canyon in Arizona. Both are located out west and when
traveling to one people usually choose to visit both. I went to both
of them last spring break and hope to go again.
Las Vegas, the seat of Clark County, Nevada, is very famous
for it's many resorts and convention center. It's name means "the
meadows" which refers to grassland seen along spring-fed desert
streams by early Spanish explorers of the area. It is Nevada's
largest city, and probably one of the best places to go to a casino.
Las Vegas is most famous for its buffets, however. It is the
location of the University of Nevada at Las Vegas, and is the site
of the Las Vegas bowl, which takes place every year in the
football field at the University. Next to Las Vegas is the historic
Hoover Dam which I thought was very interesting when I visited
it.
Las Vegas is a never ending trip and a place that you will never
want to leave. For the women of the family there are shopping
malls and clothing stores everywhere, for the men gambling is a
must and there are games galore. For the kids there are activities
that go on all day at whatever hotel you stay at, and day care
centers everywhere.
