Urban Barefooting - My blog starts in Las Vegas November 2010 (*new pics added)

Urban barefooting....why?

It's simple, I am a city dweller and I live in an urban environment...and love to do it barefoot, free of shoes.  It is comfortable, natural and liberating.

I hope I can share my experiences, encounters, wins and loses while barefoot in the "urban jungle".  I love to travel and will share my barefoot travel experiences.

There are so many places to explore and visit in the urban setting and doing it barefoot is awesome.

I decided to start up my blog again to encourgae those who like to feel free and comfortable, trying to walk barefoot in public, in the city is not difficult nor is it wrong.  Have fun.  Enjoy it and experience some new feelings.

This pic above was taken this past November in Las Vegas - along Las Vegas Blvd.  The Paris Hotel is behind me and to my right is the Bellagio Hotel.  I have been to Vegas 5 times barefoot and find it a very barefoot friendly place to visit - especially with all the high end hotels and casinos.  Never been hasseled in Las Vegas.  Anyone have a different experience to share?

This particular night, Las Vegas was experiencing a cold spell and it was 32 degrees ( 0 celcius) - not bad at all...considering I am a Canadian barefooter and we had snow back home when I left.  Lots of walking in Vegas...usually means dirty soles as well.

I hope you enjoy my blog.  If you have pics and experience to share, please do so.

Here are some additional barefoot in Vegas pics from a trip in 2007 (Nov). As you can see, you CAN be barefoot in Vegas and have a very enjoyable holiday.

Pic #1:  Forum Shops at Caesars Palace
Great mall...lots of generic stores (not like the other malls with all the very high end shops like Louis Vitton). The floors are awesome.  Smooth polished marble.  Great for barefeet.  My soles are dirty from the walk over from Bellagio to Caesars.

Pic #2  Red Rock Canyon
On the last day we rented a car and toured the area.  That took us to Red Rock Canyon.  Great drive. Lots of scenic areas to stop and explore.  Definitely a lot of looks by those I passed along the rocky trails. It was a great day and a lot of fun to explore it barefoot!  A must do for any barefooter.

Pic #3  CVS on Las Vegas Blvd (between Monte Carlo & City Center)
Everytime I am in Vegas, I need to stop by CVS and I have never had any issues being barefooted in the store.  As yoy can see it was a busy barefoot day...my soles definitely show it.
