Las Vegas: Come See The Outdoors!

hoover-dam-300x225

When you go to Vegas, what is usually the first thing that you think about?  Well – for me, it is usually the strip, however have you ever ventured off of the strip and seen life outside of the Vegas strip?  I have and I have to tell you that it is absolutely beautiful.  Las Vegas is the place for nightlife, but I have to tell you that if you are looking for some outdoor activities, this is the place for you.

The first place that you should visit is the Hoover Dam.  It is absolutely beautiful and certainly the top attraction … even if you do not like dams all that much.  It is a little more than a half hour from the strip and the tour is actually … awesome.

On the way to the Hoover Dam, you can actually stop by and check out things like Boulder City’s State Railroad Museum as well as the Hemenway Valley Park.

A Luxurious Prison in Boston: At The Liberty Hotel!

Liberty HotelOh yes, you read that right – after one hundred and twenty years of housing some of the most famous Boston criminals.  I have to say that the historic Charles Street Jail has actually changed itself around and has become a pretty well known and awesome hotel – the Liberty Hotel.

This particular hotel has actually kept up the prison theme throughout the property with preserved jail cells, levels of metal catwalks and the heavy use of brick.  The cool thing about this particular hotel is that everything down to the room keys that are made to look like prison keys are jail-like.

A special promotion celebrating their 2 year anniversary offers rates starting at $222 for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night stays through December 27.  Just be sure to book before December 15.
