As I neared the towering buildings that dominated the sky I thought to my self,"It may not be the real thing but its close enough". As I got closer my heart started pounding harder.The tall lady in green standing boldly on her pedestal. I thought, I'm in front of a New York look alike hotel in the middle of Vegas.
As I looked at the darkness, it luring me to come in, I heard screaming. I look up in curiosity, thinking someone jumped, but sadly that wasn't the case. There had been a roller coaster that had swirled around the skyscrapers. Wen we finally got to the entrance, I thought there was going to be a burst of gambling, Spectacular shows and lights as bright as times square. Instead behind that door was a hall way. It felt like a normal business building. The only thing Exotic there was a Zumanity sign.
"Don't even think about it" My mom said as she stared at me with one eyebrow up.
"Relax I would never see that show. Besides I'm to young to see it." I sarcastically said as we walked down the hall.
As I strolled across the hall way I look out the window to see a picture perfect view of lady liberty facing the strip.As we got closer I began to hear a familiar sound of gambling. The closer I got the louder it got. My heart was beating so hard that it felt like I would be happy. As I stook my hand out to grab the handle, a shock wave of reality spread through my body thinking "Behind this door is a whole other world". Then I opened the door to something I could hardly describe. From where I stood I could see Central park and allot of slot machines. My mother and father had to decide who would watch me first while the other stayed to gamble for useless causes. As I looked around I saw people checking in to thousand dollars a night rooms, bell hoops everywhere, then In the back of me was the largest picture ever of 1930's New York i had ever. By the time I had finish wandering around It had been decided that my dad was to watch me first.My dad ended up having to watch first, I could tell he was kinda disappointed. He asked me " Where do you want to go first?". I replied by pointing my finger towards what looked like in a bdistance and mini town.
"Wow" was all I could say as I looked in amazement. The one I found was surrounded by high walls with beautiful paintings inside. There was a special beam of light that made it look majestic. You could smell the aroma of pizza walking down the pebble road with rows of town houses with street names like wall street, Oh ya, Wall street was a Giant slot machine! We went to the other side to see something I definitely did not expect. There was a giant ESPN station with a whole bunch of couch potatoes on red couches that looked like movie couches for Bill Gates. There was a giant movie theatre size T.V. with three exceptionally large T.V.s beside it. It was like a movie theatre only showing sports.
We were waiting for my mom in central park. Next to the bridge, Which the lake under it was dried. There was a mammoth of a size slot machine and of course my dad leaves me to play the slot machine. As soon as my mom came back I told her about the mini suburbs and the first words that came out of her mouth was, "OMB". Which is oh my Buddha We just walked around town with Starbucks in our hand. Not trying to look like tourist.
When we got back it was time to leave, which sucked and i moaned, " Ahh........" all the way to the elevator. We walked down the same Zumanity hall when I thought," Schnitzel, I forgot to take a picture!". I ran outside and snapped a picture, but it was blurry so I never got a picture sadly. As we left I waved good by to Vegas and said hello to a very long ride to San Diego
