Viva Las Vegas

Yip, everyone was right - we did hate Vegas! At least at first, although it grew on us. The sheer madness of the place kept us entertained for a couple of days after we had got accustomed to just how tacky, bizarre, weird, and hot it was. (We nearly got killed trying to cross the 4 lane highway to get this photo!)

We spent most of our time wandering around the casinos (not that there is anything else) and found ourselves exploring Venice, Paris, New York, Rome and even ancient Egypt. We stayed at the Excalibur hotel, which has a mock medieval castle theme - so I'm counting that as another castle visit for Laura!
