It's the summer time "Mom, I'm bored" time of year so I dug out my list of cheap or free things to see and do with the Kid. We braved the 109 degree temperature and headed out to the New York New York Las Vegas Hotel and Casino to play toursit and visit the newly opened Hershey's Chocolate World.
The first thing you encounter upon entering Hershey's Chocolate World is a case of chocoate confections. I was tempted to buy the Sprinkled Chocolate Covered Marshmallow but it would melt within seconds of leaving the store. So I took a pass, this time.
You can't have a Hershey's store without Hershey Kisses dispensers and bags to buy your fill of chocolate Kisses by the pound.
The first floor (yes, there are two floors full of chocolate goodness) offers a spectacular view of a an 800 lb. solid chocolate Statue of Liberty sculpture while the second floor displays the Empire State Building made of 1,800 Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bars. That's a lot of chocoloate!
There is also a view of the Strip through a lovely yellow tinted wall of glass where all the Reese's products live. I had to snap a photo of these light fixtures before we left. How can you not love peanut butter cups hanging from the ceiling?
