Hi Guys, Well I am finally in Los Angeles, and this is my last day in the USA. I fly to Quito in Ecuador tomorrow. From the Grand Cayon, we drove down to Las Vagas and had the luxury of staying in a hotel which had a living room and kitchen in it, plus 3 pools. It was so nice having a shower and not being dirty again in the next 2 minutes as it has been with camping, the luxurys you come to appreciate!! Las Vagas was great it is so cheezy, and Katrine I think ...
