Inside The Venetian





October 5, 2009
The Venetian is as fancy looking inside as it is outside. There are gold accents and red velvet drapes everywhere! Very Godfather-esque. When Nibs entered the lobby he was amazed by the Italian paintings on the ceilings. A Sin City version of the Sistine Chapel? Teddy marveled over The Venetian's shopping row which was divided by a water way filled with gondolas. Yes, one could go on gondola rides inside the mall. So Las Vegas! It felt like you were outside because there was a beautifully painted sky, complete with white billowing clouds, and the walk way was lined with charming outdoor cafes. Teddy got lost a few times but Nibs always found her... she kind of stands out in the crowd, if you know what I mean.

  1. sorry, it was much too dark to photograph the gondolas inside the mall... for some reason it didn't take. But trust me, they're there and it's totally bizarre

  2. It's so Vegas, I love it. Rooms there used to be $400 a night now they're $150.
