Maybe I am the oddball but I still find LV as fun as ever. Yes, prices have gone up but that is true for a lot of entertainment. Still fun casinos, shows, restaurants, shopping, people watching, scenery, pools etc. I am lucky to get some comps and I am as excited as ever when I go.
The problem for me with the monorail and/or the tram is that they are so far to get to. I end up thinking I may as well just walk or uber.
