What else to do in Vegas besides of gambling and partying

[Martin Aigner]

For those who aren´t Vegas-experts: What to do in Vegas besides of dining and going to clubs (these things have already been covered here), gambling and drinking?

Here are some things I´m planing to do (I´m gonna rent a car to be more flexible):

Gonna go to Lake Mead to rent a personal watercraft (at least that´s what they are called on the homepage) Boat rental

Want to drive some go cart. Any recommendations, where to go?

I´ll bring my golf clubs. Just started playing about 3 months ago, so I´m obviously not too good at it. On very good days I shoot a 105, but it´s still lots of fun to me. Any suggestions, which courses to play? If I want to take a pro lession, where to go? (Anyone looking for a golfpartner sends a PM)

I´ve been to Hover Dam and Grand Canyon several times, so I most probably skip these possibilities.

I know that one can go skydiving, but, although I´m sure this must be a great experience, I just dont have the guts to make the jump. Some of you might try it though and write a trip report [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Rollercoaster: I´ve done the NY.NY. rollercoaster and probably gonna take a ride on that one again, as long as I don´t have to wait for more than 30 - 45 minutes. Any other good rollercoasters?

I´ve been to the cirque du soleil several times. Saw Mystere twice (liked it very much), O (loved that one) and Zumanity (found it horrible). I think there´s another show (Ka?), but I´m not sure whether it´s worth to see or not.

Of course there are other shows of all sorts, but I haven´t seen any of them, since I´m afraid that my english isn´t good enough out of it (besides the topless shows this is. Guess, perfect english isn´t too important in these shows [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )

Post your reccomenedations regarding any kind of entertainement worth seeing here.

You forgot to mention: eating the gargantuan hamburger at the Plaza.

Playing cheap craps with the codgers and drunks at the ElCo. ("No Gambling" version: standing around the craps table and yelling "Don't Pass! Don't Pass!")

Collecting the complete set of hooker flyers from the guys on the sidewalk.

Renting a limo and driving down the strip as you poke your head out the sunroof and loudly suggest that random women show you certain portions of their anatomy.

Really, it's endless.

Pinball Hall of Fame.

Seriously.

There used to be a cool coaster at Wild Bills in Primm, on the Nev/CA state line. Death Valley is not to far away if you want to experience what 120 degrees feels like. There are some interesting points of interest in the park and it is quite picturesque.

Zion Nat'l Park...
Either the Narrows or Angel's Landing, or both.

you mentioned the NYNY coaster. I liked that one a lot.

Do yourself a favor and do The Big Shot on the Stratosphere. Scariest ride ever.

Afraid to skydive, you can do the wind tunnel version at this place.
