We arrived in Las Vegas early on Friday morning after a 4am start but too excited to be tired we had an action packed day! We checked into our hotel which was pure luxury compared to the hostel we had just left then went to explore Las Vegas!! The hotels are all spectacular and there is such a crazy atmosphere everywhere, people literally party all day and night - we got a lovely lunch in the Cosmopolitan hotel then headed back to the hotel for me and Nikki to go for our helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam (Odette didn't do it because she's done it before). The helicopter tour was really cool, we had to watch a safety video before going on which mentioned where the sick bags are located which unfortunately confirmed the hypnotherapy for my sick phobia did NOT work!! Annoyingly I worried about someone being sick the whole time, but I still managed to enjoy it! We got back to the hotel and then it was party time! The strip at night is 10 times more impressive than in the day but we actually headed straight to a club so didn't see much of it. We went to a club called Light which had Skrillex DJing and managed to get into VIP which was really cool as we had an amazing view and got free drinks all night! We stayed out until about 5am so needless to say the next day was a bit quieter! We spent the day by the pool and then went for dinner at a lovely French restaurant in Paris hotel where we had yummy steaks and a couple of bottles of red (once again, forgetting about our backpacker budgets!) we had a wander around the other hotel bars and had a gamble in one of the casinos then headed back to our room. (Unfortunately the only money won was Nikki's $3!!)
We all feel like we are spending so much money in America especially because of all the tipping! We seem to be dishing out tip money left right and centre!
Now onto the last part of the USA adventure as a trio...Los Angeles!
