Las Vegas and back

Went to Las Vegas over the weekend. Man, it really is a sin city. glad im back. We took a bus tour there. the tour was for chinese nationals and catonese ppl (from hongkong i presume), so my poor non-chinese friends were lost.

City of London

First stop was the City of London in America. quite pointless if u ask me, cos it wasn't very impressive, and it was super duper hot (45-48degrees) and we almost died. I didn't go to america to see europe, if u ask me... other than the bridge, there was nothing much to see there. Disappointing.

Colorado Belle

The most impressive place there: Colorado Belle, our 1st hotel before Vegas. it's built in the shape of a cruise ship! the room was very nice and cosy, with very comfy beds. they also have a casino on level one, though that isn't the point. we went to the back to see their jetty and ducks instead.

Road Sky

I couldn't sleep on the bus at all. AT ALL. so here's some nice sights. nice desert.

Grand Canyon

TADAH! GRAND CANYON! i love it there. even though they only gave us 1 hour to look at the wonder of the world, i still think its incredible to finally see it with my very own eyes. we dangled our legs over the edge of the cliff just for the thrill. i heard alot of ppl have fallen off and died at the canyon while taking photos or doing other stuff. some of my friends climbed to one of the other cliffs, but i decided to play safe...

Las Vegas

What i like about Las Vegas is all their really beautiful buildings and hotels. it really is most pretty at night. my favourite show of the night was the Music Fountain outside this hotel called the Bellagio. It's the best.

More Vegas & Plaza Hotel

Our 2nd hotel is Plaza Hotel, a 2 star hotel a distance away from the most happening place in Vegas, called The Strip (its a strip of road with alot of casinos and hotels). Some of my travel mates decided to try the slot machines and they actually got bored and was trying their best to lose credits too. haha.

Extra Moments along The Strip

Well, we did walk for 3 hrs in the night. and got very tired. as the guys wanted to find some place to chill, the girls HAD TO rest. we waited at the steps until i took my camera out. yays. i felt very refreshed after that when the rest came back. we met up with the other group of girls and went on.

Well, Las Vegas wasn't much. sadly. all i bought was a magnet that says 'LAS VEGAS'. but well, its an experience into the world of sin. haha. terrible. But I must admit, they have VERY beautiful buildings. very.
