Headed for Vegas, running spectacularly late as per usual (Katy chatting away to everybody she sees) but by some miracle we manged to make the greyhound, our first and last of our travels! Katy did not appreciate sitting next to the crazy lady who read her alcoholics anonymous book for the entire journey which may or may not have been better than being sat on top of by a lovely but chunky American lad who was training to be a dentist!
Upon arrival at the greyhound station Katy again got chatting to some random American man and then we made our way to our hostel - The Wild Wild West!!! Hostel turned out to be a little slice of luxury with double beds, hairdryer, tv etc. After wasting a few hours showering and watching TV we headed out for our first Vegas night. We found our way to the MGM Grand, bought our first drink of the night and had our first flutter on the slots! Then we were off for food! Our first Indian of the travels in which Katy demanded a Bhuna despite it not being on the menu which the hot waiter was only too happy to oblige her with. Both curries turned out to be amazingly hot (whoever knew there was so much spice in a Korma) but the wine helped it go down nicely .
Then it was back to the MGM for a dance which was long overdue before a long walk to the Madalay bay where despite not being able to get tickets for the Lion King i had fun yet again on the slots (slight addiction developing!)
Back to the hotel where Katy worked on her addiction - Cheetos - glowing orange, unbelievably cheesy crisps full of lots of lovely e numbers!
The next day it rained so unfortunatley we had to have a really long lie in before heading to the Lion King. We headed to the Mandalay bay, got something to eat with and drank rather a lot of wine.
Then it was time to go see the Lion King. Katy cried within seconds of it starting whilst i panicked about the fact my leg was by this point swelling to triple its size due to the horrific sunburn from LA. However the show was amazinging and Katy is now applying for a part in the West end version (Pumba watch out!)
Then we wandered down the strip to the Bellagio where we watched the fountains and then headed for home.
Next stop - San Diego!
