Great narration and content direction combined with irony, humor and intelligent critique. A magazine to be enjoyed alone and by yourself – no other distraction should be allowed. Quote by Kimberly Lloyd.

VideoVintage Las Vegas Pool Party |
|
A vintage movie of a Las Vegas Pool Party with Jerry, Jane and Elvis depicting the lavish days back in the 60s. Today, resort pools have evolved from a place to lounge and grab a fruity drink before a show, to entertainment complexes with a nightlife vibe. The newest pool on the strip is the Encore Beach Club. With the party atmosphere of a European hot spot, this complex features three tiered pools, cabanas with refrigerators and flat screens, and lavish bungalows with hot tubs and showers. On the other side of the strip, The MGM Grand Wet Republic aims to bring South Beach to the desert. In addition to two saltwater pools, party cabanas and VIP bungalows the Wet Republic houses a 2,500-square-foot lounge. Caesars Palace recently opened its Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis. Six pools provide a unique environment, giving guests the choices that range from sunbathing to swim-up black jack. |
