Driving to Vegas
Franger found his way home in the wee hours of the morning and we packed up our gear and got the car. The hire car is a huge Chevy venture van with plenty of room to move and funky automatic opening sliding doors. I can see we’re going to have problems in NY:NY when Lauren arrives and we have 6 people and bags – I’m sure we’ll handle it though.
Wilko offered to be the designated driver which is handy for me as I can write and play in the back seat. So far we’ve had no issues with driving, though it does look like someone has backed into our car. Nothing major, just a mark.
Franger decided to strip for half the trip, which made for some interesting photos. This is about the least revealing shot of Franger we had.
We meet up with Dan in Las Vegas! Due to communication break downs and slowness we managed to leave him alone in Vegas in the lobby for over 10 hours. Lets just say that it took him a little while to warm up to us after spending 10 hours stewing in how he’ll kill us. He’s still good old Dan though on first observation, will have to test his metal to see if America has changed/jaded him at all.
We’re staying in the New York tower in New York, New York hotel. The hotel is huge, with about five distinctive towers in the building with different themes – plus a roller coaster running through them all. The rooms are quite nice and clean with pretty big beds – handy as we’re sleeping with each others. I thought I’d take a photo of the TV though:
You can’t even watch TV these days without Windows crashing! Crazy Americans and their dependancy on Microsoft Windows, I’ve even found ATM’s using the silly OS. The amount of times I’ve seen a windows device crash during this trip in America….
Greg managed to show the Americans how to drink at the one of the many NY:NY bars by downing beers in less then 10 seconds a beer and then some. Needless to say, he was absolutely trashed. There are a huge amount of bars just inside our Casino, walking outside in the dark in Las Vegas is like walking during the day with sooo many bright neon’s and lights. Will have to take some pic’s.
I went to bed fairly early at 01:00ish trying to get a half decent sleep for our early trip tomorrow. Even though I’ll be able to sleep in the car on the way to the grand canyon I’m really trashed and needed a few hours shuteye.
