    Backstreets of Las Vegas

    Another huge day in Vegas especially in the walking stakes, another 19.5kms down.

    First port of call was getting the bus down the south end of the strip for the obligatory ‘Welcome to Las Vegas’ sign photo. There was a bit of a line up but no where near as long as it was when we left.

    From here we got the bus back into the middle of the strip and headed into the backstreets of Vegas to have a look and to go to Five Guys for lunch. You can tell we love Five Guys as we walked 4kms there and 4kms back just to have our fill.

    Before we made our way back to our hotel, we looked over the shops in the centre where Five Guys was and then on the walk back we called into Cowtown Boots. I don’t think I have ever seen so many boots in one shop and we went to the boots shops in Nashville!

    Back to our hotel at about 3.30pm for a break before heading out again at 5.30pm to go to the other casinos we hadn’t looked at, watch the fountains at Bellagio and the volcano at The Mirage.

    Before we knew it, it was 9.30pm and our legs were stuffed so headed back to our room. Just before we got to our room this drugged up dickhead decided to walk passed me and kick me extremely hard in my shin.

    Tomorrow we fly to San Francisco for 5 nights. San Francisco marks the last stop on this amazing adventure.    Read more
