went down to vegas last weekend...took this tour from online... 100 plus for a 3D2N tour... costwise..it's quite cheap..but on some part of the trips irks mi abit... the tour guide was a chinese guy...and the whole tour bus was full of chinese...as in realli chinese chinese... they blabber in loud voices, rushed to get down buses first... and complain here n there... kinda too irritating for my liking... but still...gotta bear with it...bahh~
Day 1:
our first day drive down was to lake havasu to see the london bridge... i was expecting like mabbe a huge lake with a gigantic bridge spanning across the lake...but then...it's kinda small...and pathetic... you'll see from the pics... den after which we went down to laughlin which is where our hotel is located... it's like in the middle of nowhere... juz smack rite in a desert with casinos n hotels... kinda interesting place... but the weather is hot la... and i thot desert are supposed to be cold at nite lor... it defies everything i learn in geography sia... damn qi guai! but at least the hotel's decent... and the beds are big...
Day 2:
this is my fave day for the trip..cuz we actualli went down to Grand Canyon... as u all know, Grand Canyon is one of the 7 wonders of the world...and the chance to be at the place is really good... mabbe to some seeing a big gap aint nothing much..but to mi...the view was simply spectacular... it's like so breath-taking that it takes ur breath away... (pardon the pun...i duno how to describe it...) from the edge of the canyon, u can see the drop like thousands of feet away... and falling down from it...will be a long painful process... a pity we din managed to go to the sky walk which is on the other rim... and the time spend there was abit too short for my liking.... after grand canyon...we begin to make our way down to Las Vegas...
in vegas itself, our hotel was actualli in downtown vegas...directly opposite fremont street... Fremont street is actualli the place where they film the 赌侠大战拉斯惟加斯 ( the andy lau movie)... it's filled with strip clubs and casinos... pretty good place...but abit too quiet... after tt, we went down to the Las Vegas strip itself...where all the famous hotels are... MGM Grand, Caesar Palace, Bellagio etc etc... it's interesting to see all the diff architecture that the hotels took to entice ppl... it was a pretty impressive sight... the thing tt impressed mi the most was the Bellagio musical fountain show (think Ocean 11 final scene)... it was a great display of lights n music and water fountain...confirm qie Sentosa musical fountain... prove urself Sentosa, then i will support u ba... we tried to find some clubs to go for Vegas is famous for its nitescene... however, due to age limits.... we cant get in as our groups got ppl who are underage...a pity we missed the shows timing n can't club..so kinda felt like it was a wasted trip... at least some of the other gals managed to go watch guys strip shows! bah~ we tried our hands at some of the slots machine back in our hotel...and i lost a grand total of 2USD...wahhahaa
Day3:
day 3 was supposed to be some shopping at factory outlets....nothing much worth mentioning since the outlets that we went to have nothing much...oh..i blew 100 bucks on coach stuffz.... and i can't figure out for nuts what's the fascination about coach stuffz...oh well... genuine leather, nice design...mmm... i wonder.... but since the queen of coach (XY) saes so... so it shall be... well...that's all for Las Vegas....
