San Fran > Vegas
12 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
After I'm almost certain no sleep the sun rose and I watched an unhealthy number of TikTok's to pass the time. But alas I would fly today! Although the flight was 2 hours delayed, an hour because the plane arrived late and the other because when we boarded the plane was imbalanced so they had to start putting people's luggage in the hold and also asked 10 people to disembark.

The only bonus was I had an emergency exit seat with extra legroom. The cost of this flight was $29 with only $3.61 of that going to the airline so I guess what kind of service do you expect.

Anyway, after 1 hour 40 min flight I landed in a very very hot Las Vegas! I took the bus to my hostel which was over the road from a classic Vegas wedding chapel. Czytaj więcej

Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas
12 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 40 °C
Before we get into it, this footprint has broken my all time record on here for hottest footprint at 40 degrees (at 5pm) beating Latin America and the likes of Dubai! Says it all about the heat here and I'm sure this record will be broken over the next few days!

After checking in and having a much needed shower I decided to power through the tiredness and get back on the bus to the very far end of the strip. This being home to the famous Las Vegas sign! There was a big queue to stand in front of the sign and it was so hot in the sun so I decided I'd just sneak a selfie from the side. Czytaj więcej

Pinball Hall of Fame

A quick free stop close to the Las Vegas sign is the Pinball Hall of Fame. This free to enter warehouse is lined wall to wall with a variety of old-school arcade machines. My favourite being the 24 themed pinball machine! Czytaj więcej

Excalibur & New York New York

Next up I headed into Excalibur and then the New York New York, no explanation required of the themes but again very impressive on the inside and out! I was now realising that all of the hotels in this region of the strip are owned by MGM as they all connect together with signing of how to get from one to the other! Czytaj więcej

I'm starting to realise that many of the hotels are quite similar in that they all are just huge casinos with shops and restaurants. Anyway next up was the famous MGM Grand and a wander down the strip at dusk. Czytaj więcej

Bellagio Fountains
12 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ 🌙 36 °C
My final stop of the evening was to enjoy two rounds of the amazing Bellagio Fountains! The performances are every 15 minutes and I saw versions of the Fountains dancing to Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds and All Night Long. The Bellagio, Caesars Palace and Little Paris looks amazing lit up at night! I'd done well to last this long without sleep but the time had come to get some rest. Czytaj więcej

Caesar's Palace Pt.1
13 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 36 °C
My next stop was one of the main events of the strip in the famous Caesar's Palace! The grounds and lobby area are very impressive, with a multitude of sculptures and even an F1 car! I was able to put a bet on Tranmere v Accrington Stanley in the Sportsbook area and settled down in the comfortable seats to watch Tranmere's emphatic 3-0 win on my phone! Both teams didn't score so my bet didn't come in but at least Tranmere won! Czytaj więcej

Omnia, the Beatles, McD's & Flamingos
13 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 39 °C
Next up was a few random stops. First of all I passed Omnia night club which hosts all of the world's most famous DJ's. Martin Garrix is there this weekend which I'm sad to be missing.

Then I tried to get into the Beatles cladded Mirage, only to discover that it closed last month after 30 years in business.

Then there was the huge McDonalds arches and feris wheel, finished off with the flamingos in the garden of the Flamingo hotel. Czytaj więcej

Hoover Dam & Goats

On our way back into Vegas we stopped off at the iconic Hoover Dam! It was pretty damn hot, sunny and windy too. But still it made for great viewing! Then we stopped a few minutes later to enjoy looking at the free ranging goats in a small park.

Also pleased to announce that this footprint breaks the heat record at 41 degrees! Czytaj więcej

Vegas > Austin
15 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 36 °C
This morning I was up and out of Vegas early to fly to Austin, Texas! Thankfully this flight was not delayed, although despite leaving Vegas at 8:30am we didn't arrive into Austin till 1:30pm thanks to the 2 hour time difference!

Once landed in Austin I had to take a shuttle from one terminal to the main terminal. This shuttle crazily took about 20 minutes, most of which was on the freeway! From their I was able to catch a bus into the centre. Czytaj więcej

Exploring Austin Pt.1
16 sierpnia 2024, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
This morning I set off to explore what Austin had to offer! I took a wander down the river again but this time.on the other side and in the other direction. After that I wandered down the main strip on 6th street, definitely doesn't come close to Nashville on an early Friday afternoon. 6th street then turned into a more historic district with some older buildings.

After continuing up 6th street I then cut up Congress Avenue which of course led up to the Texas State Capitol building. I was going to head further north to the University of Texas but it was so unbelievably hot I unusually decided I couldn't be bothered so sat in the grounds of the Capitol for a while before heading back to rest.
