Hi Folks!!We got to San Diego in one piece thanks to Craig's excellent driving and my excellent navigation skills!! We went out for dinner and headed out for a few drinks to a place that was one of the '20 worst dives in America' lol. It was good a whole round was like $12, the cheapest place ever!! We had a few drinks and then headed back to the hostel except for steamer Nat who had spotted some black guys and decided to head back out lol!!The next day we got up and headed to San Diego Zoo, it was amazing!! Its so much better than the one at home!! You can get really close to all the animals and a lot of the enclosures are just separated from people by glass or a wee wall. We saw pandas, bears, lions, tigers, hippos, you know the usual stuff you see at a zoo!! When we were by the monkeys Craig had his sunglasses up against the glass and they all came over and put their hands up on the glass beside Craig's, but the high light of the day was Nat spewing outside the Zoo. At night we went to see Tropic Thunder at the cinema which was quite funny but best of all was that I saw my first trailer for Righteous Kill the new film with Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, cant wait to see it!!!Next day we were up early and started to head to Vegas as we decided to scrap Tijuana and have an extra night in Vegas as it was so good when Craig and I were there before with our tour group. We booked into Terrible's for a night and Emma, Nat and I went shopping at the Premium Outlets which was cool and spent more money than we should have but it was good fun, not as good shops as the NYC one but still better than home! At night we went and had an Indian which was really good, yum yum!!!The next day we moved to The Mirage which I had booked for us all a few months ago and it did not disappoint. When we got there they opened the car doors for us and took our bags and we just gave our keys to the valet parking - amazing!! Our room was so cool, it was all nice and modern and we had an excellent view down onto the strip room the 21st floor. Nat was having a look in the mini bar and pulled out a bottle of whiskey an it had an electronic tag for like $71 but we told the woman and she let us off lol!! Next we went to The Gun Store where we all went to the indoor shooting range, I had a Glock and it was really cool, more kickback than I expected from a handgun and I did well I shot 18 out of 20, best shot well apart from Craig but he is trained lol, we all had Bin Laden targets it was awesome!! After we took a walk along the strip and had a look at the lions in MGM and in a few of the shops and headed back to he hotel with some drinks for the night. We all had a good few drinks and took our time getting ready, we actually got to dress up yeha!! We all called home and spoke nonsense on Nat's work phone lol and then made our way out. It was much quieter than last time so we ended up in a club in The Imperial Palace which was ok except the DJ which who was guff and never played a full song so it was quite an early one which we were quite glad off as we didn't want to be too rough the next day. Next day we got up had burritos for breakfast as it was 2pm and then Emma, Nat and I headed to Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden in our hotel which was cool, I thought it was 2 dolphins and 2 tigers but it was like a wee mini zoo. We saw the dolphins playing in their pool and then a panther, and a big lion and lioness and best of all the tiger cubs, they even and 2 white tiger cubs, they were in a cage with a guy and they were all playing with him and fighting each other, they were so cute!! They had a big white tiger and a regular tiger which I reckon are the mums and the white tiger was massive, the regular ones seemed smaller than the ones Craig and I petted in Thailand but the white ones were massive, you would have liked it Dad! After we just chilled by our lovely swimming pool and then we had dinner and Emma and Nat went back to the room and Craig and I went along to The Bellagio to see the fountain show again as we had been a bit drunk our previous time in Vegas lol!! It was so amazing, its awesome how they do it, all the different shapes they make with water in time to the music, we were smiling from ear to ear after it!! We watched a film in the room and then went to sleep, well some of us did and some of us shouted at Natalie to stop snoring all night!!Next day we were up and in our car on the way to LA which is where we are now!!Hope everyone is well.Lots of LoveEva and Craig xxx
