"Me so horny" - Chris Christodoulou
Today didn't start out the way we planned; we aimed to go to the viewing point of Area 51 at Tikaboo Peak; however, due to the lack of research, we found out that after a 22 mile off road drive at Tikaboo Peak, we'd have to hike up the mountain for 1.5 hours. Unfortunately, we didn't have the right gear available and were stuck in vest tops and flip flops - this meant we'd miss out on visiting the Extraterrestrial Highway too. Gutted!
We made a last minute decision and decided to tease ourselves with a little taste of Vegas by hitting one of the shopping outlets for a couple of hours to do some last minute shopping, before heading back out of the city to visit the Valley of Fire State Park for the afternoon.
After a few hours of retail therapy, it was safe to say that Ralph Lauren has taken the majority of our Vegas money. Moving on to the Valley of Fire we learnt two things; Chris doesn't like national parks with deserts and rocks, and there were massive scorpion-killing spiders (see picture of scorpion remains). We checked out some pretty good canyons and had a drive to see the white domes... which was a big white rock with a toilet outside of it. Despite the lack of enthusiasm to see the white domes, James would never had earned his LAD point for locating two mountains that looked like a pair of boobs. Chris also earned a LAD point by stupidly and bravely standing on one foot, on the edge of a thin rock overlooking a massive drop... to be honest, Chris did it off his own back, we just all agreed the fact that he survived was worthy of a LAD point.
The scores are as follows:
Nick: 4
James: 5
Chris: 4
Marc: 1
Heading out of the state park it was time to find a motel. Did we find one? Yes, and it was a little f***ing hut, which looked like it lacked electricity, let alone wifi, or any living individual. Debating what to do, we felt it was time to head back to the outskirts of Las Vegas, which ultimately meant there was barely any driving left to do and the party city was within arms reach.
Approaching Vegas we pulled up at a Super 8 Motel and did what anyone does when they get to Vegas, the city that barely sleeps... we went to IHOP! We decided that an early night was a good idea so we can drop off our car to the airport and check ourselves in to the Encore at the Wynn tomorrow - we are ready to shred the s*** out of Las Vegas.
We tried to repack our bags with all the shopping we've done (definitely over the limit) and tried to get some shut eye in our sauna of a bedroom. Tomorrow we hit Las Vegas properly, things will get messy and it's rumoured Hulk Hogan is in town.
Viva Las Vagas!
