Finding Internet in Las Vegas

Although this blog is about my travel in Mexico, I would like to dedicate this post to a slightly unrelated topic; this is regarding my travel to Las Vegas. Although my travel to the splendid city in Nevada was amazing, one thing that troubled us quite a lot was getting hold of a local SIM card/ phone chip, mainly for the purpose of having internet available on phone. Unlike other American cities, it is difficult to find free Wi-Fi access or Wi-Fi access nonetheless in every location. Funny thing is we could not find a kiosk at the airport where we could buy the chip and could get on with the trip. So my advice would be to head to the nearest Fry’s Electronics store and buy a local SIM card which gives you a good internet pack. T-Mobile has the best options and the next choice would be AT&T.
Other than this you can always enjoy free internet at the numerous Starbucks stores dotted all over the city (mostly on the strip).Also check with your hotel if they offer Wi-Fi access or not. Surely you would not want to be internet-less when you would want to check in on FB while playing a game of poker at the Caesar’s Palace or Harrah’s, or tweet about the amazing performance of the Cirque du Soleil you just saw at the Bellagio or the Mirage!
