Hoover Dam, once known as Boulder Dam, is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the US states of Arizona and Nevada. It was constructed between 1931 and 1936 during the Great Depression and was dedicated on September 30, 1935, by President Franklin Roosevelt. Its construction was the result of a massive effort involving thousands of workers, and cost over one hundred lives. The dam was controversially named in honor of PresidentHerbert Hoover. Ok everything I wrote about hoover dam I got it from google but it was the best way to explain it. After learning more about USA history I became interested in the hoover dam and that is why we went.
We had to stop at Las Vegas at least a couple of days. We drove at night to see the new hotels and ended up seeing the Bellagio waterfalls for a second, the Mirage volcano erupt and the pirates show in the Treasure Island. Next time I will try and see some shows they have great ones.
Hoover dam
Tuvimos que parar en Las Vegas por lo menos un par de días. Fuimos en coche por la noche para ver los nuevos hoteles y terminamos viendo las cascadas del Bellagio por un segundo, el volcán en erupción del Mirage y el show de los piratas en el Treasure Island. La próxima vez voy a tratar de ver algunos shows porque tienen unos increibles.
