Vegas magic

The domestic plane which flew us all to Las Vegas was P.A.T.H.E.T.I.C. From my window seat, I witnessed the right wing shaking vigourously from the time it set off all the way until landing. I thought we were all going to die when we went through a turbulence. The plane rocked so hard that my motion sickness kicked in even though it was only an hour flight and I was ready to puke anytime.


You can never imagine how glad I was to survive the journey. I almost wanted to pop a champange when the pilot brought us all safely to our destination.





Plenty jackpots in the airport.
Arrrhh!!! Big Money Big Money!!!



Washed up and went for a nice dinner at our hotel, the Steakhouse.
The oysters are very very fresh, too bad it's not a buffet.




His ribeye steak... I think it's 48 usd.
Portion was humougous, he couldn't even finish half of it.



My prime strip.
It was huge too, the angmoh can really eat!

 
The cool thing about Vegas is that they have a theme for every hotel along the strip. They also have miniature landmark replica representing famous city like Paris (Eiffel tower), Rome (Trevi fountain) and New York (Statue Liberty) etc. If you have no time to travel Europe, just come to Vegas ok.


 
In Vegas, there have free shows/ performances outside almost every hotel along the strip. A good alternative if you don't want to visit the casinos. Remember to check the show timings so you can get there early and chope a good spot for photos.

OK, I don't know what's happening here cuz the show was already halfway through when I was there. Basically they were just flirting, dancing and singing on the ship lah. (Uncles hot favourite)


 
And then I don't know what happened, the ship caught fire and sank. Hehe.



 
Treasure Island, our hotel for 2 nights. They've got extremely comfy beds.



We then crossed over to the opposite to visit the Venetian.




It's mini Venice.














Caesars Palace





Impressive fountain show outside Bellegio hotel.
Oh yah, we had inter-continental buffet dinner at this hotel on our second night, the variety blew us all away!



Flamingo is cool, it's very pink inside. And they hire busty ladies to deal cards in their casinos.






Trevi Fountain!












The mini Eiffel tower.



Our last picture before the camera battery died on us, which was a perfect timing since it's about time to go back for some rest. We slept for merely 3 hours and got up feeling all grouchy at 4am to visit Grand Canyon.

P/S: Hang on while i sort out the photos taken at the Grand Canyon ok, will be uploading them like very soon.
