Some people love it so much that they can\u2019t remember a thing when they wake up the next morning; others simply wish they could forget the shenanigans ever happened.<\/p>\n<p>Funny, people always say, \u201cWhatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.\u201d Lies. I haven\u2019t met one person who has come back from this city and doesn\u2019t have a story or two to tell. I\u2019m sure those of you who have been to Vegas would agree with me.<\/p>\n<p>Las Vegas is notorious for certain offerings that have earned it the title \u201cSin City\u201d. Here are the seven sins you can experience in Las Vegas without having to feel guilty. Well, maybe just a little\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>Lust<\/h2>\n<p>Get your mind out of the gutter and don\u2019t even go there! If you have anything like the intense desire for chocolate I have, the Jean Philippe Patisserie in\u00a0<a title=\"Bellagio Hotel\" href=\"http:\/\/www.expedia.co.nz\/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Bellagio.h140596.Hotel-Information?brandcid=blog.article.billylawvegas_200514\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bellagio<\/a>\u00a0will indulge you in the most decadent chocolates and desserts on the Strip. Lust over the world\u2019s largest and first-of-its-kind cascading Chocolate Fountain, certified by the Guinness World Records.<\/p>\n<p>For love birds, if you have that sudden urge to tie the knot, there are plenty of wedding chapels to get hitched in. Since it\u2019s going to be a once in a lifetime experience, you may as well get married by the \u201cKING\u201d himself at the Elvis Chapel. No family and friends there to support you? No worries. You can broadcast the wedding on Internet so they can watch you walking down the aisle live from the comfort of home.<\/p>\n<p>No dress or tux for the wedding? No problem. At the Las Vegas Premium Outlets you can shop an impressive collection of high-end fashion labels at low cost prices. Who\u2019s the devil that wears Prada now?<\/p>\n<h2>Wrath<\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s simply no better anger management therapy than strapping yourself in for a few heart-pounding thrill rides in Vegas. It might not be the fastest or the wildest, but the roller coaster at New York-New York hotel will still have you screaming your lungs out for a few good minutes. For the real adrenalin junkies, get your fix at Stratosphere Tower. On top of the tallest structure in Las Vegas, not only will you see a 360-degree bird\u2019s-eye view of the whole city, but you can test your mettle by jumping off the tower and plummeting through the sky for 855 feet, the equivalent of 108 floors. Well, taking out the travel insurance before the trip isn\u2019t such a silly idea now, is it?<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las Vegas\u00a0is like country music, Vegemite or Celine Dion\u2019s voice; you either love it or loathe it.
