Things to Make You Comfortable

Vegas excels at satisfying your every need. Right here. Right now.

But sometimes it's easier -- and probably cheaper -- to bring a few standard things with you. Especially if the heat catches up to you. Or you all of sudden run out of energy.

Start with a small, durable bag (daypack, shoulder bag). 

Collect the following for starters...

• jacket / sweater *
• energy snacks (whole-food bars, granola, nuts, apples, E-mergen-C)
• extra water (here in the desert you should always carry a water bottle, and be sipping water regularly)
• aspirin
• small package of tissues
• eye drops (it's a dry desert environment)
• nasal spray (still a dry desert environment)
• moleskin for foot blisters
• small scissors (may not pass airport security)
• inventory list of things in this Pack (makes it easier to restock)
• anything else that you think you need.

* In winter, this is obvious. In summer, consider this... Temperatures outside reach 110 degrees easy. Let's say the air conditioning in the resorts is set to 70 degrees. That's an instant drop or rise in temperature of 40 degrees just walking through a doorway. If you spend a lot of time outside, you might actually need a jacket inside the casino in the summer, so your body has time to adjust.
