Stratosphere Tower Las Vegas

Deze dag rijden we terug naar Las Vegas om daar de eerste nacht in Circus Circus door te brengen en de andere drie nachten in Excalibur!

De temperatuur in LV was ondertussen opgelopen tot 40 graden…

In de middag zijn we even gaan kijken voor kleren voor San en mij…en ook Lotte heeft toch nog iets gekocht!

Aquí estamos otra vez, Las Vegas!!

Llegamos después de un largo viaje desde Grand Canyon al Stratosphere hotel, a norte de la strip. La habitación es bonita y con jacuzzi enorme!!! Se podía hacer una pool party jajjajjajaj. Que vida y que pequeñitos nos sentimos con estas grandezas americanas.

Las vistas desde la torre son …

Today we hit the strip in a double Decker bus. We sat in the opened roof of the bus and went up the strip with a guided tour. We went all the way out to old Vegas and saw lots of old fluro signs and casinos. Heard some Mob stories and Elvis Stories. While we headed for the Stratosphere.
Before we left my sister had sent me pictures of people …

Got up around 10 and a bunch of us got "breakfast" at Ellis Island Casino next door and relived our night. Rishi said he was happy to have been the little spoon with John the night before….Kathrin was mortified about motor boating but was relieved to hear Robert didn't hate her for being “too small”.

Next we walked up the …

Nach dem Frühstück wollten wir den Staat Utah so schnell als möglich verlassen. Die Aus- war wie die Einfahrt in den Zion NP spektakulär. Die Interstate 15 brachte uns Las Vegas – DER Entertainment-Stadt schlecht hin – rasch näher. Unterwegs erreichte uns ein SMS eines Langenthaler Kollegen, der sich zufälligerweise in Vegas aufhielt. …

· Before we could even check in got sucked into a promotion. Turned out to be a time share presentation. But we were given Cirque du Soleil (KA) tickets at less than half price. The catch was to attend a 3 hour presentation the next day

· Walked Las Vegas Blvd and walked …

As we approached the Nevada state border there was a rainbow off in the distance so we saw it as a sign to stop off at Whiskey Pete's Casino on the state line and do a little gambling. The rainbow brought me good fortune as an hour later when we were back on the road to Vegas I was up $275. Unfortunately I couldn't take that rainbow with me as I …

Our first morning in Vegas started late, but it was still very strange to walk through a casino on our way to breakfast and see people clearly still there from the night before. They are very clever in the way they light and regulate the temperature in the casino's to trick people into thinking that it could be any time of day. They lose their …
