Its 102 degrees, you're hungover to all hell and are in need of something low key to pass your time until you're ready to do it all over again that night.  It's way to hot to tan by the pool, and after the $$$ spent the night before, shopping wasn't on my mind.  For us, Bodies was a more interesting and air conditioned alternative than wandering the strip or watching the Bellagio fountains over and over again. (I was super hungover alright?! The options were limited.)\n\nI was doubtful that anything interesting or productive could have come out of that depressing, smelly and lonely casino, The Tropicana.  However, my boyfriend reasurred me that there would be a reward at the end of this walk through possibly the most joyless place in Vegas.\n \nHe was right, there was.  The bodies are actually very interesting to inspect- they're right out in the open, not behind glass.  The controversy behind them is also an interesting subject to research (most of the bodies were former Chinese prisoners).  They had a very intriguing section about the development of human fetuses...not for everyone, but interesting for me.\n\nI also appreciated that we were able to walk through the exhibit at our own speed, rather than being hurried along by some annoying tour guide blabbing away.  And, there were plenty of benches for my pathetic ass to stop and rest for a minute.  It had been a rough night.
