Today was The Relax Day. We spent the morning enjoying our hotel features and especially the swimming pool and the jacuzzi !
Indeed, the Golden Nugget opened in 1946 but was recently remodeled. The new swimming pool has a 200,000-gallon shark tank as well as a three-story waterslide that makes you slide through the shark tank! Oh, by the way, the name of the hotel comes from the world's largest gold nugget which is displayed inside: 61 pounds and 11 ounces...
Then, we had lunch at the Golden Nugget buffet which is correct.
And, once the night came, we enjoyed the so-called "Fremont Street Experience" which takes place in the street just outside our hotel. It is a high-tech light and laser show that takes place five times nightly and it is free! The canopy towers 90 feet above the ground and spans the length of five football fields. Featuring more than 12 million LED modules and 555,000-watt sound system, the light show attracts tourists and locals alike. The first light show was broadcast in 1995. Nearly a decade later in 2004, $17 million was invested in upgrading the Viva Vision canopy. Videos are broadcasted on what is the world's largest screen.
While we were there to 'experience', we also tasted the 'Deep Fried Oreos' as well as the 'Deep Fried Twinkies'! Not so bad as it sounds, but HELLOOOO calories...
