I woke up at 9am and casually wandered downstairs hoping to get a Grand Canyon tour booked but apparently they leave at 6am! So I'll do it at the end of my trip - I think not rushing it will make it more special too :) So I had a couple of coffees and a nice man staying at the hostel made me a pancake, which I doused in maple syrup. It was so good. I had a shower and got ready to head downtown at 10:30am. I walked to a casino called the Golden Nugget which I ha...

Woke up at 6am and had a shower. Apparently they infuse the water with vitamin C - oo-er! I was at the pool by 8am, chilling out and then shopping. Checked out at 10am using my TV - what?! Then went to the bell desk so they could look after my luggage whilst I partied. I bought a huge piña colada at 10:30am, without realising it needed to be finished by 11am or admission would be denied. It was $25! But it came in the souvenir cup which is mine forever. Hurrah. ...

Woke up a lot fresher today! Maybe I'm past the jet lag...? Had a cup of tea and toast and checked in online for my flight to Vegas. It's delayed already - yay.

We chatted about the PCH and he offered me a lift to Union Station :) When I got to Union Station, all I wanted to see was a Starbucks! When I finally tracked one down, I ordered a grande vanilla cream cold brew and Facetimed Ca...

So I woke up at 6am and slowly got myself up. I text Chisa then went downstairs for a coffee. I had breakfast then called Chisa - she panicked and had already left after having searched around for me because her phone got upset about international calling. She said she'd turn round and would pick me up at 9am. At 8:50am when I tried calling 3 times with no response, I thought, oh crap. And started to make other plans to get back with Beth - another girl I had met...

So I checked in and put my stuff in my room then got onto the Wifi to call Caz. After putting on some 'sun block' I walked into town to find the Belly Up venue! It was about a 10-15min walk away and by the time I got there, there were a handful of hardcore fans in the queue! I got chatting to 16 year old Cindy and 21 year old Chisa, who were amazed that I ha come all the way from England for the gig! I met a couple called Logan and Kay, who got married in Vegas i...
