Fri 22nd May - sore heads anyone??


Well, everyone is hung-over to hell apart from me! I surface around 10am and decide to provide refreshments for the room by going up to the garage. That doesn’t even stir them so I just end up getting showered and heading out for a sunbathe. The boys from Stoke are feeling rough as well but they’re away to the Grand Canyon today! Good on them, but they must be over the limit!
Eventually everyone is up and ready to stagger out at 3pm! However, Aaron decides to stay in bed – ALL DAY!!! Man alive, it’s roasting as hell out here! Not good with all of our sore heads….however, we get the bus into the strip and get off at Caesar’s Palace. We decide to head into Caesar’s palace on the look out for some cheap food. It’s all so massive in here – the shopping centres / the displays of fire / fish tanks in the wall – MENTAL!!! We stop and have a huge salad at one of the many eateries in there and notice that Cher is playing here – she even has her own shop here with Barbie Cher dolls for sale!
After wading through the masses of miles of shopping centre in Caesar’s Palace, we head towards the famous Bellagio….where Oceans 11 was filmed….it’s sooooo cool seeing the Bellagio fountains in action, and just across the road is the Eiffel Tower – mini Paris! We head further down the strip and see New York, New York which has a roller coaster flying in and out of the building along with the Statue of Liberty outside it! Luxor is up next and this is where Will Smith’s video ‘Getting Jiggy with it’ was filmed – it’s like a mini Egypt with the hotel being in a pyramid! We head into Excalibur, which is all medieval style along with scantily clad women dancing on the bars….it’s 5pm!!!!!!!! Deary me…..we’re gutted that we miss the lion cubs in MGM by 10mins – argh!!
After our mammoth trek, we’re all shattered and head back to the hostel where we find Aaron STILL in bed!
