Vegas read

Here is a trip report to Las Vegas that has passed through a free translation service. Las Vegas becomes Vegas read, because "las" is a form of the german verb "lesen" (to read):

Vegas read in December 1998

On 2 December Donna and I are after read Vegas flown. I was still operate in the morning and then at noon to Donnas house drove. Evelyn brought us after San Jose to the airport. Already there Puenklich at 13:15 o'clock went into air and briefly before 3 o'clock was we. Radiate-blue sky warmly and nicely. One comes into the counter hall and it becomes immediately clearly around which it goes: Plays, plays and again plays. I do not have to say probably that it concerns gambling. Daddelautomaten, here Einarmige bandit at each corner. And if a somewhat larger surface is available, then the crates are equal in many series closely on closely.

Several german leftovers like Zocker, draufhauen make the text quite funny:

Einarmiger bandit is also so a thing: Only for instance a third of the crates has to operate a large lever at the page around the mechanics and also with these is perfectly unnecessary it. Pure nostalgia, since the normal Zocker does nothing different one than the buttons on the front plate to press. The activate button is somewhat more largely laid out thereby one there also beautifully draufhauen can.

(...) These crates are a pure time killer and make mostly also a tremendous noise, or the almost accumulation gives a noise window blind. In some Hinterecken gabs even 5 cents Machinen. Is quite nice, because only which one would like to actually do is to plays - or believes somebody in winning? - and then I understand not at all why I for few seconds directly several a dollar to investiren am, even if I can do it with 5 cents. Perhaps I did not understand also only the sense.

Perhaps we do not understand the sense either...

We arrived thus and drove with a Schuttle into the hotel. The driver had one genuinly sends cap up, so a garrison cap from skin. He had bought in New York. We fuhen by the hotels and of them imposante input areas. Everything is to be processed for it designed many humans and folds actually always quite well. At all is read Vegas rather well organized and help smoothly its cash to output.

Did you know that Las Vegas hotels are ypsilonfoermig ? That most of them include a goose area ?

The hotels are usually ypsilonfoermig, so that all rooms show outward. Additionally there is then sometimes still another special building, which fits the topic of the hotel. A special a goose area or, like the Luxor, a pyramid. If it is dark runs on their exteriors lightnings up and down. Looks nice.

And that in the casinos you can play with Daddelaparate and with cubes (here they meant "dices") ?

(...) The Casinos in these hotels is made all more or less alike. Many Daddelaparate and pack of cards desks. Few roulett and cube plays. At the age and the appearance of the barmaids, which around the desks and offer free drinks one can touch the quality of the Lokalitaet to read off.

(...) There we sat then also and had our first evening bread in read Vegas. In one of the business I tried on a bunch leather coat. In yellow with an original price tag of 25000 dollar. But in Klamottengeschaeften in America all on Sale is actually always cost the coat there only 12000 dollar. It fit me well and looked good and cost after my note that my Creditkarte was good unfortunately not enough only 9000 dollar. It would already gladly have carried the coat forward but I think that 3-4000 for it would have been already plentiful. At all, already rather many rich humans must run there rum; because to pay a normalmortal did not know most things.

That part with the yellow leather coat, I did not understand. Then there is an episode about a visit to the Cirque you Solei. No wonder that a French name, part of a German text, gets incorrectly translated into English: the French particle "du" means "you" in German:

We were in the Cirque you Solei in the Treasure Iceland. That is genuinly good. But for a Show 70 dollar to berappen is again quite beautifully hard. Those sold off two Shows daily, 6 times in the week always, determine 1500 workstations.

(...) There we were in our second evening. Donna bought a bag Poppkorn, and as we then to our workstations went, came a Animateur, which provided also during the Show always times again for unterhaltsamme confusion, and removed from Donna the Popkorn.

Workstations ? In a circus ? I have one here at my workplace but why the hell in a circus ? Is it a Cybercircus, where you can surf on the Internet while the clowns appear on the ring ?

(...) Well war's. Afterwards, it was only midnight went we into the neighbouring play hall. That is the correct printout; because of the quality it went clearly downhill. Everything was simple, but all had much fun. That is at all the good thing read Vegas on: One wants to only zerstreuen oneself and enjoy the life.

This will be the conclusion: Vegas read is fine to enjoy the life and to zerstreuen oneself!
