And then there was my assault on Vegas. Cheap arse Aussie arrives by bus, checks into cheapest hotel in the middle of the strip, and then proceeds to only spend $3 on the pokies the first night. Infuriating to any casino boss indeed.
Furthermore a guy from the bus also decided to check in at the same hotel. So while in line we got talking and agreed he could share the room I had at the Imperial for the first 2 nights. So in addition to being cheap I also took away additional revenue from them. How was I to know I was as a result harboring an illegal. I suspected this, and finally got enough evidence just as he was leaving.
Anyway highlight of the Vegas leg was the tour of the Grand Canyon. The tour started at 7am and thanks to a delay on the way back returned at 1am. There was an accident just as we got back to the Hoover Dam about 8pm which closed both lanes of the highway. We had to divert back to the last town 2 hours back, and then detour an alternative way 2 hours. Other than that the tour was great.
Other than that Vegas is all about the money. Got it they love you. If you don't... oh well. My last 2 nights were spent at the Treasure Island. This was really cool be it above the budget. Advantage was as a result I got entry into the nightclub at the hotel free, which also overlooked the Sirens of TI stage show.
Oh well at least I was't paying for the expense of the Wynn or Bellagio. Wow!
