This shot of the Boardwalk Hotel and Casino was taken in 2004, roughly two years before it met its end.

Travel Tip: Saving on Flights to Vegas

Daved Brosche — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 16:13:28 +0000

Despite how many good deals you can find on hotel rooms, dinners, and shows; the expenses of Las Vegas can quickly add up once you actually get there. Because of this, I highly suggest saving as much money as possible before you leave. At least this way you will have some extra [...]
