After a turbulence filled 10 hour flight (turbulence created mostly from rich's snoring and "wake me up when dinners ready" chat we arrive in Vegas airport! We sprint off the plane to beat the crowds, go through immigration swiftly but then...we get to the bag carousel and begin the game of 'wait and see if your bag has been sent to Barbados or not'. After a few bitten fingernails all our bags arrived and we headed outside. Now being a typical brit I thought "ok i've been told it's hot but how hot can it be?" ......... We stepped out from the air conditioned airport lobby and I was struck in the face by heat I can only describe as "oven-like". 2 mins later and a few beads of sweat, we got in a cab and headed to the much talked about FLAMINGO hotel...
Vanilla, pink, clean but dirty, all ways I'd describe the flamingo. After checking in and some subtle sales chat from dan "we want the highest floor possible", we headed up the lift to floor 17. The room had a great view of the pool area, good size but just 2 beds. After an unspoken moment Dan plays his winning trump card, "I am driving after these 4 days in Vegas so I need to stay fresh". Through gritted teeth and a few choice words under our breath came "that's fine, me and rich will share" :) Change of clothes, a quick wash, it came time to hit the strip!!!
