Vegas FAMILY Vacation
Спорт
I decided to drag my entire family to Las Vegas for a holiday prior to the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix and here’s how it went!
It’s not often that I have time for a family holiday during the F1 season but the break prior to the Austin and Las Vegas Grand Prix made it possible for a family Vegas vacation! So everyone travelled from Australia and met me in the states for some fun in Las Vegas! I made a Las Vegas travel vlog of everything we got up to on our Vegas holiday! So here are some of the best things to do in Las Vegas as a family! Watch the whole video now - you won’t be disappointed!

The Cosmopolitan has beautiful rooms because it was originally designed as a condominium. But when they were building it, Vegas and the US economy as a whole suffered a horrific crash in 2008 and it was repurposed as a hotel. Vegas was a ghost town in 2008-2009. Cosmo’s rooms are awesome and the suites with the terrace views of the Bellagio fountains are wonderful.

The beat room I've stayed at in Vegas. Wraparound terrace room. It literally wraps around the building, barely any rooms have balconies in Vegas... Had a view of the bellagio fountains as well. Their high end restaurants and good court (elevated food, not just your fast food chains) is quite good as well. Speakeasies, dayclub/nightclub... Their ice rink in the winter. Just a great property... Hopefully MGM, keeps up the high end nature of the property.

Kym, Number 1. Itis really wonderful to watch the presentation of a professional photographer. You are peerless. Number 2. It is also great to watch you and your family doing so many things that 99% of humans will Never ever be able to do or see. Thank you for including us..

Oh wow. at 5:47 when Kym comments and tosses his Wahlburger in the trash, I bet Paul would’ve been embarrassed. Hope if he sees this video he addresses that restaurant. As far as the “Beatles Love” show at the Mirage, if you haven’t been is a MUST! My wife and saw it and were blown away!🙏🏻🏁
"Yes he wins almost every race" to the robot haha that was hilarious!
Wild, you go all out for your family holidays! One of those first class tickets is probably worth more than my entire annual holiday
What a joyfull holiday Kym. When comes to family no issues splash a cash for you i see. Wonderful, brilliant video. Looking forward to the next ones

Love it mate, my partner and I will be in Vegas next week from Brisbane, Australia, We cant wait. Thank you for the updates, its nice to see what's happening there. Might run into you ! cheers mate.
Great looking family and what a place to take the family!! Love it!! I will speak for myself and say thank you for lending us your father and husband as he makes us feel Like we are rite in the F1 races with the access he gets us.. I also love your dad’s recommendations as far as we’re to stay as I love tracking…
" Max VER-STAY-PIN" 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you our AI overlords !!!
every time i go to vegas, always stop at an in-n-out. best value and always fresh
AWESOME!! Ive actually stayed in that suite looks like the very same one! Just a beautiful room. I was a Marriott GM at the time so it was only about $525 a night. I sure miss those perks!
Kym, take the family out to Hoover Dam and swing by the In-and-Out Burger along the way. It's not more than a 75 minute drive. Just do it. Red Rocks National Park is amazing for hiking and climbing. I suggest Calico 1 or 2 for starters. You might see a ram, a snake, and/or a roadrunner along the way. I saw a roadrunner there about 5 years ago. Meep Meep

Very surprised you caught the painted rocks! And red rocks! Thank you for doing your homework!... Check out area 15 for endless fun. Seriously, can spend hours there... Herbs & Rye, for off strip steak and amazing drinks... Circa, if you ever head to downtown. Pizza rock and evil Pie for amazing pizza. Plwnty of other tiny spots everywhere off strip... I also know an amazing spot for Sphere views ☺
0:00 Is that a Cosmopolitan wraparound terrace suite?!!! How much was it per night? I stayed there in 2011 when it just opened, but I had a junior suite in the main building which is a bit further away to the back. Cheers from Belgium.
Next time you see Ted Kravitz, it may be time to buy him a beer. I’d seen one or two of your videos before and not realised what they were or who you really were. Ted made a throwaway comment on the notebook I believe in Austin- “let’s ask Kym, he knows everything that’s going on around here” I’ve now spent the last few weeks watching exclusively your videos and learning a huge amount! Thank you for all the spectacular content (which age’s like a fine wine, unusually for f1 content) and thank you also for the spectacular photo’s I’ve loved for years, and never had a face to put to them! Your videos have made me very much want to quit my job and become an f1 photographer, I suspect I’ll need another 100k of savings and 50k of equipment before making that attempt however! But it’s certainly re-lit my desire to shoot motorsports.

How bad do you think traffic is going to be leading into the race weekend? I was there for the NFL Draft last year, and people were walking to the airport because of how gridlock everything became with a portion of the strip closed off.
Great stuff, once again. How were “the girls” the morning after clubbing? Any headaches? Do you order your In n Out fries “well done”? So good that way. Thanks for your hard work!
If you can, make your way up to the likes of Zion National Park or Arches National Park, incredible scenes only a few hours away from Vegas
No need to go to Las Vegas now seen it all on Kym's vlog! thanks.

According to Dave Portnoy, Cugino's has the best pizza in Vegas. There's a Wahlbergers here in Springfield MA. I've never been to it. I'm pretty sure a burger there is 1/2 the price of the Vegas price. I agree. The emoji sphere is my favorite animation too.

Thanks for sharing your Vegas Adventure - I generally dislike Vegas for its excessive gambling, prices, etc. but honestly your fantastic & entertaining family vacation video has renewed my interest in visiting all the sightseeing areas that you shared ! (The Vegas Visitor board should send you a $100,000 USA commission check ! ) And that’s awesome ! Unfortunately- I will not be attending the Las Vegas race in person . Because my one and only experience at the Milan Italy - Monza Race 2022 last year was “very disappointing “ , The Race Audio Video screens were super small , Audio was terrible , porta potty bathrooms were filthy (actually disgusting) , dirt roads everywhere , hot , and food was horrible , transportation from train station - 2 hour wait in city bus line, packed in like sweaty sardines (definitely thought another Covid outbreak was to be expected !) fan pedestrian mgmt. reprehensible (definitely felt like a third class attendee over the entire 3 day event! And worst of all a 3 tickets for (Askari seating area ) Monza Race cost of $1200 USA !!!!for the Sunday race (3 of us) , and sadly what you get for that excessive dollar amount was the “privilege” of sitting in packed hot cigarette Smokey and uncovered grandstand ( on the back side of the track) to watch cars “wiz” by for 5 seconds, and then wait another 3 min to see the same thing again. Never again ! Extremely poor value for money ! Now the Austin track is awesome (Attended a moto gp race in 2018) , but there are only a few spots where you can “actually see” more of the racing - and that’s not in the main Grandstands- maybe some day in the future I’ll attend a F1 race there, but generally speaking I now prefer watching on TV its a way better value for money - with clean bathrooms, unlimited snacks and amazingly comfortable seating lol !

Whalburgers are awful, their chicken is even worse. Happy to have met you and gotten a photo with my son at COTA. I'll have all three boys for a photo with you next year. Cheers
