Hi dudes! This time I chose an architectural title: "Learning from Las Vegas", the book written by Robert Venturi. Robert Charles Venturi, Jr. (born June 25, 1925) is an American architect, founding principal of the firm Venturi, Scott Brown and Associates, and one of the major architectural figures in the twentieth century. Together with his wife and partner, Denise Scott Brown, he helped to shape the way that architects, planners and students experience and think about architecture and the American built environment. Their buildings, planning, theoretical writings and teaching have also contributed to the expansion of discourse about architecture. (Wikipedia again).

So let's see what I'm going to learn from Las Vegas, maybe loosing a lot of money doing gambling!! Maybe not ;-) I arrived here yesterday night after driving from the Zion National Park. In the last days I drove with my fire red Dodge Challenger more then 1'000 miles (about 1'600 km) from LA to San Diego, then to Tijuana in Mexico, after at east to the Joshua Tree National Park, I stopped at Lake Havasu before arriving at the Gran Canyon National Park. A friend suggested me to visit the Antelope Canyon so I drove to Page, a little City located at norther border of Arizona. The Canyon is just amazing (check my pictures in Facebook or google it), I did a tour through the Lower Antelope Canyon in the morning. I decided to drive to Las Vegas with a stop at the Zion National Park in Utah. I did some tracks over there and I could enjoy the nature and the pace in this Canyons and monumental mountains. Arriving in Las Vegas by night is a spectacle as well with all the lights and the busy traffic. This afternoon I'm going to check the famous strip with other people from the well located and cheap Cat Hostel, the place where I'm staying the next few days or rather nights! See you soon :-)
