Very nice photos Naomi!!! I was impressed on how well things came out when you shot through the bus window glass didn't you?

The 1958 Aku Aku restaurant left this world sometime in the 1980s. Perhaps they shot outside the Tropicana Hotel where there were similar moais made of plaster that were there until 1996 (Casino was shot in 1995). I am ashamed to say I have never seen Casino so I cannot validtae this...

The pool is south strip at the Glass Pool Inn (formerly the Mirage until Steve Wynn bought the rights to the name)
