Nevada Club Inn Bullhead City

If you are reading this, and we warned you not to, here is why....<br><br>When we left the Grand Canyon we drove for a few hours that night and stayed in lovely Needles, California, right on the border of Arizona. So thats it, just where we slept for the night, before we headed up to Yosemite National Park.<br><br>We just wanted our map to be accurate, hence the reason for this post.<br><br>Till Yosemite, a real post you can read.<br><br>Nic and Jess<br>

We picked up the RV today in Los Angeles, it's fantastic. A 32 foot (10m) home on wheels with 3 beds, shower, toilet, air conditioner, stove and fridge. This will be my home for the next 21 days.<br>We are headed to Northern Arizona (Bullhead City, AZ) tonight. Boy is it hot, 108F (30+ celcius).<br>

Another couple of days of mooching, hiking, grocery shopping, reading, soaking in the hot tub, swimming, reading, sewing - we really are getting into the swing of things! For the moment we are really enjoing the lack of a schedule. I'm sure the day will come when that feeling passes but for now.... We made another visit to North Mountain but we still haven't reached the top. But I did get further up the path before I ...

... All sorts of attractions are geared to entice people into the Casino - and most entries and exits ensure you either go through the casino or the souvenir shop. We then went up the stratosphere tower to get 360 view of Las Vagas. The interesting thing here, was there are three rides that operate on top of the tower and thrust people up or out over the edge ...

... culprit we discovered later, a black bird that came back for seconds. I thought of the lizards that had kept watch on our camp and the squirrel we caught rummaging through our neighbor's bag. The candle lanterns that I lit five hours too early came to mind. I chuckled, thinking of us looking for my flint before we left and buying a $1 plastic sand toy to ...

... out Andrew, afraid of heights, turned away, stating simply that there was no way he could continue down. The crudely chiseled out steps were steep. The only guide was a loose chain staked in on either side. At some points, the stakes or the chains hung limply along the rock wall. I took the pack and told him that he could do whatever he needed to do - take more time, go back up, or slowly work his way down.

... a somewhat dozy morning, so sadly we didn't manage to get to the zoo. Never mind, we had a blast and you have to leave something for next time, right? So then it was Viva Las Vegas! Matt had been about five years ago on a conference and loved it, so he was the driving force behind us going this time. We arrived at night and it's quite a sight to come into the strip, all lit up and ready to party! We stayed at Circus, Circus at one end of the strip and it was ...

We left the high country and the cool temperatures of the Grand Canyon and followed the Colorado River down to the Bullhead City, AZ/Laughlin, NV area, where HOT can barely describe what it's like here! At 11 in the morning, it's 106 degrees in the shade, and 127 degrees in the sun, according to our thermometers. Of course, the only place that's shaded is under the motorhome, which, at 106 degrees, is no treat, either ...

... we went to Aladdin for the Spice Market Buffet. It has some yummy Seafood and Dessert! If you wanna gamble, see shows, eat, drink and sight-see, this is the place to go. I wish I had a little bit longer then a weekend. Check out my Las Vegas 2006 Pictures
