I've put together a layer that details the area around The Strip in Paradise, Nevada. There's some general information about the Strip on the red placemarks, as well as specific information of all casinos, and photos of most of them, on the yellow placemarks.

You can take a tour by simply clicking the play button on the folder, or expand the contents to look at individual places. For best results, view in the Google Earth software and turn on 3D buildings, though be warned - this works better on high-specification computers!

Gran Casino de El Sardinero
[Info] [GM] [LL] [YM]
By: DonMartini
@ 2007-12-15 03:22:51
The Gran Casino was one of the first buildings to be constructed near Santander's beaches in El Sardinero. The original Casino, built midway through the nineteenth century was purchased by a French organisation in 1870 and converted into the building we see today, which dates from 1916. When gambling was forbidden under the Franco dictatorship, the Casino was used for other activities (dances, weddings, theatre and cinema screenings).In 1978, following Franco's death and the return to democracy, the Casino was completely overhauled, reopened and its original function was restored. All the usual diversions are on offer: Black Jack, Roulette, Poker and fruit machines. In addition, there are banqueting rooms, a restaurant, a pub, a cafe and an events room for parties. Various meeting rooms are also available, the largest of which can accommodate up to 300 people. One area of the building is dedicated to art exhibitions as well.

This 1931-built ship has been beached in the sands of Le Barcares, on the Mediterranean coast of France, serving as part of a resort, spa and nightclub since June of 1967. She was originally Adelaide Steamship Company’s MOONTA for Australian coastal service, with accommodation for 140 berthed passengers. A product of the Burmeister and Wain shipyard at Copenhagen, Denmark, she was powered by B&W diesels which drove a single screw at 13 knots. MOONTA's weekly Adelaide-based itinerary served Port Lincoln, Port Germein, Port Pine, Port Augusta, and Port Hughes. She remained in this service throughout the war, until being withdrawn in 1955.

For six months, she replaced the ferry TAROONA on the Melbourne to Launceston run while the other ship underwent repairs. Later that year, MOONTA was sold to Hellenic Mediterranean Lines and renamed LYDIA for Marseilles to Egypt via Italy and Greece service. The 298 by 44 foot, 2,696 gt liner was refitted at Piraeus to carry 460 passengers in cabins, dormitories, and on deck. In 1966, she was laid up at Piraeus, and the following year, sold to Soc. d’Economie Mixte d’Etudes et d’Amenagement des Pyrenees Orientales. After her engines and screw were removed at Marseilles, LYDIA was towed to Le Barcares. A special basin was cut into the sands were the ship was berthed, then filled in, making her a permanent fixture at the Mediterranean resort.]]> Lydia
