Heathrow To LA Then On To Las Vegas - 25-28th October 2015

My Half Term Holiday.

We flew with American Airlines from London Heathrow to Los Angeles.  It took just under 11 hours.

We spent our first night here at LA airport.  Then we picked our rental car up in the morning.  Can you see us parked outside loading our luggage.

Then off we go on our road trip to Las Vegas, Nevada.

I think somebody ran out of road names!

We drove through the Mojave desert.

Time for a little nap.

Crossing the border from California to Nevada.

The mountains were really high.  It's a good job we have a 5.7 litre V8 car.

 

Here's a go pro video of our journey speeded up.  In real life it took about 4 hours.

We made it to our holiday home for the next 5 nights.

Hilton Grand Vacation on the Las Vegas Strip.  This sofa turns into my bed.

I am a little anxious as this is all new to me.

But I think it will soon feel like home.

I love the jacuzzi bath tub ( I was up at 3:30 jet lagged the first morning enjoying a bath).

I love the shower too.

Time for a little walk along the strip before bed.

Can you see the Stratosphere in the distance.

 

This is a GoPro time lapse video of the sun rising out of our apartment window, behind the strip.

Our first full day in Las Vegas.

Just about to buy our monorail tickets to travel to the other end of the strip.

I love monorails.

Welcome to Las Vegas!

I cannot believe I'm in Nevada.  This is my 11th trip to the USA, and my first time in this state.

The MGM Grand Hotel.

Guess what I just saw....a West Bromwich Albion Supporter in Las Vegas!

Bubba Gump I love this restaurant and shop.

Buying my new watch.  Mummy and Daddy treated me to a new watch. because Las Vegas is the city that never sleeps and there are no clocks anywhere.  People who know me know I have to know what the time is as part of my daily routine.  I am very happy now :-)

Outside the Venetian hotel.

Inside the Venetian hotel.

Can you see the Gondola boat ride?

We caught the deuce bus back to our apartment for a rest and swim.

The temperature is just perfect not too hot.

Time for dinner at Denny's.

Back to the Hilton Resort.

Day 2 Las Vegas.

Here's my new watch.  I love it, and now I know I have a watch  I am not at all anxious about time like I sometimes can be.

Time for more exploring of the strip.  I love the outside escalators.

So many big T.V's.

Treasure Island.

The Mirage.

High Roller, the world's tallest Ferris wheel.

Time to ride the monorail back to the holiday home for a rest.

Me with the famous Las Vegas landmark.

Guess what!  It's spitting with rain in Las Vegas.

Driving down the strip after dark.

So many lights and things to look at.

I cannot wait to go in these shops.
