Jesse and the boys loved Knottsberry park as the rides were created for adults and it wasn't as crowded, Scott was even too scared to go on one of the rides. Our last night in Anaheim we went to a 'world of colour' water and light show at California adventure which was amazing. We travelled from Anaheim to Vegas on Luxbus America which took about 4 hours but it went fast because we had a crazy Russian hostess who entertained us with her stories on the way. Checking into Caesars Palace was a challenge due to the sheer number of people and the size of the casino, it took us three or four attempts to even find the lifts to our tower and rooms. We were all given upgraded rooms with minibars, fridges and plasma screens and they had massive bathrooms with tv's in the mirror so you could watch it while getting ready. If you have seen the movie Hangover based at Caesars you would know that the mini bar and fridge at all weight sensored so if you pick anything up you have 30seconds to put it back or you will get charged for it, BJ and Scott didn't know about the 30s and picked up some Pringles and had to eat them not knowing they could put them back. Another girl who we met up with is gluten free so she had bought all her own food and when she got to the room she took all the drinks out of the bar fridge and put her food in, when we found out what she had done we told her how it worked and she had to ring hotel services who luckily let her put it all back in to avoid the $112 fee. We have spent most of the time walking up and down the strip and looking at the different casinos, mum and dad you would love Jimmy Buffet's 'Margaritaville' Casino. At Amy's recommendation we went to the Venetian Casino and rode the boats around the canals. Jesse, Daz and I went to a place called the stratosphere which is about 110 stories high and has rides that go off the top of the building (I have loaded a couple of videos that you can look at), Jesse didn't want to do it so Daz and I did it together. That night Ange, Lachy and I went to the Garth Brooks concert at the Wynn Theatre which was possibly the best night of my life, he was great and it was a small theatre so we could see him well, we weren't allowed to take photos of him though. Today we checked out of Caesars and have said goodbuy to the others who are travelling home. We have checked into our first hostel which is only $17.95 each per night and is great so far, it has free wifi and is clean and we have our own room. We are planning on having another 3 days here in Vegas and then heading to San Francisco so will keep you all posted. xoxo

Kim Awesome. Fancy "Margaritaville "and "Garth" obviously a slice of heaven. Hopefully Dad and I get to see it one day. We will pass on the stratosphere rides though. I can't believe you did that. I hope its out of your system now. Say Hi to Jesse.
