After crossing the Hoover Dam, we stopped at Lake Mead.
|
We saw our first Longhorn Sheep. |
And went to Vegas for a $5 steak dinner! |

Our first night, Alfonso won a show ticket to Follies at the Tropicana
Casino free spin. We walked the strip and played the penny slots. An
old man came up and put ten dollars in my machine and showed me how to
win! We stayed in the pyramid at the Luxor. |

|
My winning machine! |
The Sphinx in front of the Luxor |
Vegas looks completely different in daylight. |
When trying to win another show ticket, Alfonso won $50 in food at the Tropicana restaurant! |
And, while we were eating, I won $250! |
Some nice ladies gave us a Follies ticket that they weren't using, so we saw the show after all! |
To throw you off the scent of area 51. |
|
|
Reno is like a tiny Las Vegas. |
They love to help you accumulate debt! |
|
And, the State Capitol is 100ft from the casinos! It was weird because
the entire state lacks trees, yet the capitol building is landscaped
more than any capitol we've seen, yet. |
|
We had to go back through Vegas after picking up our car from Tucson. |
Art Encounter, Las Vegas. The largest gallery in Nevada. |
Fashion Show Mall. A runway rises from the ground every hour or so for a live fashion show! |
Las Vegas is full of surprises! |
|
|
Making our way East. |
We stopped at Great Basin Nat. Park. |
|
|
Changed out of sandals due to snakes. |
And saw interesting roadside sculptures! |
