Unfortunately (and stupidly) I slept through my alarm this morning, and so we missed out on the grand canyon tour, so instead I went to check out the Hard Rock casino, as it isn't on the main strip and so we didn't visit it yesterday. It was cool to see Mark Hoppus and Tom De Longe's guitars and even though I don't like slipknot, the masks were so scary that I had to take a picture. A guy came up to me and started talking to me, and creeped me out by saying he'd ...

Alice didn't come with me, but I went to the pool party with some of the hostel. You were supposed to be residents of the hotel to get in, but Chandler, the hostel manager, made the girls sneak in behind guests, and took the boys through the pub to get them in, although it wasn't really that hard to get in, and I'm not sure whether the guys I went in behind even had keys themselves. We made a camp on the volleyball court, and then floated down the lazy river on t...

At 2 pm me and Alice went with Yohan, Peter and Alex, some Swedish boys, down the road to Stratosphere, as we had heard that it was quite easy to sneak into the pool.

On the way we stopped at the Grand Canyon tour booth, who told us that the cheap tour you can do wouldn't let us take our own bottled water or snacks, and tried to convince us to go on the m...

We had to make sure we had eaten something before our floating tank session and couldn't drink coffee, but once we'd said goodbye to Andy, we headed off. We were a bit early, so I had a complimentary vanilla tea, which was quite cool as you filled the teabags with the loose tea, and then put a stick through the tea bag, and rested the stick on top of the mug so that the tea bag was dunked into the water. When our tanks were ready (they wash it 3 times in betwee...
