A different view of the Stratosphere
REGARDING Steve Friess’ recommendation to avoid the Stratosphere [“Some of It Should Stay in Vegas,” March 20]: Yes, the Stratosphere is expensive, and the waits can be excruciatingly long, but it is worth every penny.
The views are great. Ear and nose doctors will probably assume that I am nuts, but when I walked on the open-air level — removing my hearing aids because of the strong wind — it was absolutely exhilarating. Not just that, but my hearing improved, at least for a while.
