Day 4&5

Ok so this is how the day started.

Got up early, packed all my things, returned linen, had breakfast, went on a trek to the car rental place lugging all, ALL (of my 3 bags) down Melrose Ave and up La Brea, (it took about an hour) make it to the rental place only for them to tell us that they lost, yeap lost the car we were to drive to Vegas.

NOT GOOD AT ALL... right??

...wrong!!!

"How do you feel about driving a black Mustang Convertible??"

"I'm sorry??"

That's right folks.. for no extra cost, I drove this baby all the way to Vegas!!!

But that was where my excitement ended... It was terrifying driving on the wrong side of the car and road.. Oh and the road rules, ridiculous!!! Did you know that you can turn right through a red light??? Well screw that!!! Honk your horn all you like bitches.. this Melbournian knows how to drive.

So 4 hours later and a few U-turns, we make it to the Best Western Hotel. And surprisingly it was pretty decent. Nice room, great beds, nice outdoor pool area... it looked good from my room.. way too cold for that!

Anyhoo... On we went to the strip. First stop MGM Grand. Guess what we had for dinner?? (a hot dog and a Maccas burger) Soooooo expensive were all the restaurants. I wan to slap the man who told me everything was cheap there!!! Ok so after our lavish meal, we got some drinks, I played Black Jack on a screen while sipper my terrible scotch and won $9.74 - YAY!! After that we were given free passes to a few clubs but because Jess didn't have proper I.D, they refused her. You see, she's allowed to gamble, drink, but not dance. Hmmm...

Just before we were about to head out to another casino, I spotted a Craps table with some men playing and was intrigued.. Long story short, they gave Jess and I a $5 chip each and I walked away with about $30 - woohoo!!

Cut to the next morning and Jess is throwing up over the rail of our hotel. Nice!!
That day was spent mostly in bed.. but that night we went to Pris Las Vegas. Oh la la... and The Belagio Hotel...I want to live there!!!!!!! - I won $12 - YES!!!

Oooo ooo oo.. I almost forgot. Did you know that petrol stations in Vegas have Pokie machines?? - This country is insane!!!

I could go on and on about all the crazy stuff here.. but i'll leave that for tomorrows post about today, Day 6.
