Vegas


Yes - Vegas was awesome! We did so much walking and of course wearing sandals with no real support didn't help so my legs were in so much pain. I noticed interesting stuff about Vegas this trip.

First - there are NO BENCHES along the streets. There is absolutely NO PLACE TO SIT if your feet get tired. No benches, no chairs, no foundations or rocks or anything to sit on. Absolutely nothing. They want you to go into the casinos!

Second - in the casinos themselves, I noticed that when you're standing sorta in the "center" of the casinos, there is tons of space to move between the tables and slots etc. but that as you get to the outer edge (where you can see actual daylight) the tables and banks of slots (mostly slots) are so close together that the crowd has to pass through single-file. You can't even walk side-by-side. The only reason? To keep you IN the casino

Third - and finally, there are also no benches or places to sit inside the casino other than at a table or the slots.

Amazing!

The weather was awesome - it was quiet only the hotel room - the Flamingo. But we had fun anyway! I want to go back sometime with our trailer - do a long road trip - that'll be a LONG one! - and just park somewhere in a nice trailer park and drive in to the city when we feel like it, explore the area, etc. on our own time. That'll be fun.

So this is what one looks like when one has not slept all night and only arrived back home at 5:00 a.m.!!!! I was so tired but happy!
