This is an unusual report. Flusher's humor and wit shines in this report, but that's not what's unique. He and his wife traveled around Las Vegas with a microphone, recording the sounds as well as the sights around town. This report is full of MP3 files that will make you feel like you're right there with them.
This trip report is heavier in the details of the home construction, but has great info about restaurants and Rio Suites.
David Berman's trip reports are heavy on dining and this one is also heavy on preparations for his upcoming retirement and move to Nevada.
