Hi again, What can I say about Vegas? It must have been the madest 48 hours of the trip for me. Far from as good as Slim's doing all the cowboy stuff, but just completley off the chart. We got to Vegas around 12ish and now had a 25 hour day ahead of us as the clocks went back an hour - Yes more time for gambling! Unfortunatly we couldn't check into our hotel until 3, so Chris took us for a tour around in the van showing us all of the hotels and what ar...

Before reaching their we stopped at a famous scene in the film Forest Gump, where Tom Hanks is runnin...

Hi all, Sorry for not updating the site before now, but when you head West from New Orleans into the desrt there are not too many places to get internet access. I am also having trouble uploading the photos, so you may have to wait until I get to Vegas (tomorrow) before you see any more pics.
