Hehe
Hey, Herr Dok - Fantastic holiday, thank you!

TGB - I barely came home with the shirt on my back. ;)

Las Vegas - a fantastic city. A huge, overwhelming, neon cesspit of desperation - of the school of thought that says 'the next buck will net me a million'. People win just often enough to keep the illusion alive. It's the first genuine 24 hour city I've ever encountered - one morning I got up at 4am to walk in to the Desert to see the sun rise and the gaming floor was absoulutely packed. It never ends.

The food is excellent, although we had to stop eating 'American Breakfasts' after 3 days if we had any chance of being able to get on the plane home/not contracting some kind of serious digestive disease. The people are incredibly friendly, welcoming and accomodating.

Hooters is the best place I have been in my life, bar none. ;)

Pimps line every road, and if you keep your eyes open late at night you'll see streams of Hookers making their way in to Hotels for private shows.

In short, there's a real reason why they call Vegas the Sin City. It's buzzing 24 hours a day, it never ever stops. I had an absolutely brilliant time there, and would definitely go back again. Only next time, I'll see some shows. And maybe try and get some access to World News - because watching American news gets you nowhere.

Phew. I'm knackered!
