Hey everyone!!!!
So we have made it to Vegas, but not before enduring the most full on flight over here. Arriving in Brisbane Airport, Kate and I met up and checked in straight away.. only to be seated in different classes.. urgh! So we kinda kicked up a stink and were both put into economy... but scored a bulk head seat so had plenty of room! My chest infection kinda flared up on the trip with the air conditioning and all so was feeling a little worse for wear. We slept but not alot, watched heaps of movies and laughed alot.. I think we were getting slightly delirious! Once we got off the plane in foggy LA, we made our way to the AA checkin and waited in huge lines for ticketing. I was about to faint it was humid and my chest and breathing was all whack. Finally got to our boarding gate sat impatiently at the airport for 3 hours.. and people watched... against our will. Fashion in the USA is so random! You can almost tell where people are going.. specially Hawaii flights. Once we got onto our last flight we passed out instantly.. we were so grumpy and shitty at this stage.. I didnt even know if I would be capable of actually getting off the plane. But I did.. and HOLY B-JESUS it was HOT as shit. The heat, chest infection and the 24 hours of travelling had officially whooped my ass!!! Our initial intention was to get a shuttle to the hotel.. but in the end I insisted a private car would be out best option.. and even that took too long to get to the hotel. BUt we made it.. and the shower was amazing and the bed was BLOODY AMAZING.

So we both kicked back for a couple of hours and then later that night we headed out for dinner and a night walk along the strip. It was boiling, at least mid 30s. It was crowded, and the strip STINKS.. like dry reach stink.. lol. We just walked around in a complete daze checking it all out... Kate just said it just seemed so surreal.. she couldnt believe it. The music here seems to be a little behind the times.. like we have heard alot of 90s dance music, which he he is kinda fun.. but kinda strange to hear everywhere when there has been so much great dance tunes after then but ahh well.
Today is 4th July, HAPPY HOLIDAYSSSS..... we hit the strip at 7am.. as we were ready to go.. the strip was empty which was great so we saw alot with out bumping into a bazillion people. We got burnt today too.. it was scorching! I couldnt even imagine sun baking in this.. ridiculous - its thick and hard to breath. We had a great lunch at Margaritaville where Amanda works.. and we sat and caught up on what been happening! We sat and laughed about this 26 foot motorhome we hired for Alaska.. and both questioned our abilities to drive it.. so that should be VERY interesting an humerous (top insurance we feel is essential!). We then headed for a snooze, the food made us very tired again.. so we watched a couple of movies in the room. Later in the evening we watched the Siren Pirate show - which was all TACK ha ha and then did more casino browsing. We have had flutters within most hotels.. but havent really hit it big.. yet! We seriously cant believe what people wear here.. the girls hardly wear anything.. Boobs just in and you can see everything.. specially up an escalator... ewe ha ha ha.. and people carrying young babies around as they gamble at 1am in the morning.. I just say Oh MY God alot and laugh..
So anywho.. its 2am or something now. Our Limo is picking us up at 8.30am to head to the Helicopter for the Grand Canyon tour.. so I should get some kipper. OMG I cant believe we have our first helicopter ride in the morning. Looking fwd to it big time.
Anywho.. We are having a fabulous time!!!
Much love always xx
