Today was an early start with a 6:05 am bus pickup to take us on a Grand Canyon Tour. A smaller bus arrived to take us to the depot which was running like a well oiled machine. And we were quickly on our way. It is a 4 hour trip out to the South Rim but our drive Roderick was entertaining and he played recordings of the history of the Canyon and a movie for us to watch. We had a lunch stop at the National Geographic Centre which was included but the food was ordinary, as expected. There is an iMax theatre here showing a movie of the Grand Canyon History. It was well done and gave us an idea of what the base of the canyon along the river was like without climbing down ... read more

We had planned to Renew Our Wedding Vows for some time so why not have a Tacky Elvis Wedding whilst in Vegas ! So we booked into viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapels for the big event. The Wedding Chapels all seem to be out of town a bit and the area looked a bit dodgy with a motel opposite called “Sin City” & a Tattoo Parlor!! Despite that the staff were professional and poor things had to deal with the Bridezilla of the prior Ceremony appointment. Meanwhile I chatted to two girls who had chosen the Do Wop Diner and had dressed in 1950’s red and black outfits to suit the décor. They told me that although same sex marriage was legal in L.A. they had chosen to come to Las Vegas for their nuptials. I ... read more

Touring USA, Canada, Caribbean & Mexico 2015 - Strolling the Las Vegas Strip

Cheeky Barstool

Foxy Miller

The weather was perfect here at 28C / 82F for an afternoon stroll. So we headed down the Strip Treasure Island Casino, which of course is Pirate themed. They no longer had the daily shows on the Pirate ship but it was a fun environment and I found a VERY cheeky barstool !! The Strip was crowded and made more congested by the Street Performers. I felt pity for those in Super Hero outfits. But apart from seeing more flesh than in a string of butcher’s shops it was pleasant. A Panda themed Slot machine (Pokie machines to us) caught my eye and I slipped a $20 into the slot. First spin of 50C was a winner and the 24 free games paid me out $36.00 which I grabbed and moved on. J Across the road ... read more
