Well of course we had to make a stop on our pilgrimage at the city of sin. We drove into town early with out a destination, so we had to pull over, get on the internet and find some hotels. Surprisingly the hotels in the city are pretty cheap, we were able to find a room at the New York, New York Hotel for 80 bucks a person for 2 nights.
The city was pretty fun, I would surely go back, but probably with a larger group of friends and or a girl. If your not gambling the drinks can be very expensive. We did some gambling at the Blackjack table but lady luck was not on our side at all. We also walked around to all the other major casino’s on the strip to check out the sites. Not wanting to spend too much money we didn’t check out any of the many shows available. Nor did we want to spend the 20 dollars cover to go into the “ultra lounges/clubs”.
We went to the Circus Circus casino way down at the other end of the strip because we wanted check out the spinning bar from Hunter Thompson’s Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Unfortunately it was closed that night for some reason.
All in all Vegas was sweet, I’d like to come back with more money for gambling or with a significant other. We stopped at the Hoover Dam and began our drive to Northern Rim of the Grand Canyon.
