Over the past ten days or so, the sh** has hit the fan over rising crime (and the tendency of authorities to hide the truth from tourists and avoid bad publicity) and negative street trends that are strangling the once-popular glitzy boulevard.
For example, a local TV station reported last week that the Police Department was engaged in a deceitful effort to "hide" the awful truth that - muggings, break-ins, stabbings - even deaths - were on the upswing and a cause for concern.

Also, there has been all all-out battle between Bosses - and street vendors - over the right to engage in free enterprise!

In addition, I posted an expose on "racist" incidents on Las Vegas streets that I witnessed first-hand that usually go unreported.

Inside Casinos, tourists have also encountered threats and harassment at the hands of overzealous dim-witted security guards, who get their jollies off bullying out-of-towners on a whim and without provocation.
I was actually stalked and threatened, too!

Even the once-classy Wynn Resort has slipped in quality and service - to a shocking low- in recent days.

Needless to say, Tourists are keeping their eyes out for more pleasing climbs elsewhere to relax on holiday and take a respite from it all.
Niagara Falls appears to be a vacation spot worth checking out these days!
When it comes to a healing get-a-way, the quaint town has it all in my estimation.
The picturesque falls are literally breathtaking, for starters!
And, if a jet-setter want to to get up-close-and-personal to the natural wonder, the "Maid of the Mist" (a boat charter) will ferry the ecstatic explorer under the falls for an unforgettable bird's eye view.
Of course, overhead helicopter hovers are worth every penny to thrill-seekers, too.
On the main strip there are wax museums, fun houses, and circus rides to while away the leisure hours.
There's a bird kingdom, too!
And, you won't want to miss the Skylon Tower, with its spectacular view!
And, for the gambler, there are spacious air-conditioned Casinos to play a round-or-two.
The reasonably-priced breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets are tasty and affordable!
For the adventurous, there are tours outside of the downtown area, where rich historic sites of yesteryear beckon to delight, entertain, and inform.
Justin Bieber fans may want to scout down his old haunts in the pretty little town of Stratford-on-Avon!
Oh, baby!
Next on my vacation travelogue?
Key West, the home of legendary writer, Ernest Hemingway.
Stay posted!
