When to go to Las Vegas?
On the Strip you can photograph a pyramid and an erupting volcano within the same hour, which raises the question of whether the desert ever voted for any of this. The shows sparkle magnificently, largely to distract you from the bill. And should you survive the air-conditioned coach out to the Grand Canyon, the view will briefly make you forget what the parking cost.
