Holidays - Las Vegas



Viva, Las Vegas! This week's episode finds us in sunny Nevada for a few days in Las Vegas. We were staying at the MGM Grand casino, right in the heart of The Strip. As luck would have it, there was a UFC title fight at the MGM the night after we arrived, and the Superbowl was on Sunday (we had arrived Friday)! So there was a couple of people around!

Vegas was a lot of fun, and if you were a big partier or a big gambler, you could really lose yourself there. After putting the odd dollar into the slots all weekend (as much gambling as we ever do) and pulling out nothing, Jess struck it big time just as we were leaving for the airport, and pulled almost $60 out of a machine! We cashed out straight away, and that more than paid for our taxi ride!

Upon leaving Vegas I was happy that we'd been, but couldn't see myself going back. I'm slowly changing that opinion though, and wouldn't mind going back again at some point. It's not high on my list of places to re-visit, but I would like to.

Anyway, no big write up today - onto the photos! Next up, the Grand Canyon!
