Las Vegas Day 3 - Hoover Dam & Grand Canyon

 On day 2, we joined a tour to the Grand Canyon.

Before the destination, the tour guide brought us to Hoover Dam.

Some history but I don't really understand..

 Welcome to Nevada!

Don't you think the road sings in US are good for pictures? Hehe

 Last year on Thanksgiving, both of us are quite slim.

T.T

 After spending 30 minutes at Hoover Dam,

we continued our journey to Grand Canyon.

Pretty scenery, desert all around.

 So basically, we were leaving Las Vegas.

But going in the Nevada City.

Las Vegas is just for the 'sinful area'.

And there are many casinos/slot machines everywhere！

Even at the gas station and donut shops. 

So interesting and such a unique city in US. 

 After 4 hours journey, we finally reached the GRAND CANYON!

 This place was one of those places in my wish-to-go list.

 No words can describe it.

 Canteen for the tourists.

Just simple lunch box was provided,

which was included in your ticket fee.

 We did not choose the helicopter tour because it cost a lot.

Instead, we walked the glass floor but no camera allowed.

 Sky Walk

Just 3 minutes and I forgot the entrance fees.

We must wear a 'socks' to cover our shoes when we were walking on the glass.

There were 2/3 photographers up there to help you capture photos.

Of course, you must purchase it.

Unfortunately, Xu was kinda afraid of height,

otherwise I would have spend more time up there,

and the photographer was happy to help you at posing to the camera (=

After all these, we sat for 4 hours bus again back to our hotel.

Exhausted!

Las Vegas Day 2 - Mac King & Bellagio

The second day in Vegas, we had no idea where to go.

I mean everywhere in Vegas is an attraction,

so we just walked around and discovered abit.

 Skies

This is actually indoor (=

 We missed the Gondola (boat).

But never mind, I'll save my experience when I'm in the real Venetian!!

 The mall/shop lots.

 Focus on the ceiling.

 If I'm not mistaken I saw this scene in Triumph in the Skied..?

Outside Venetian.

Macau version looks exactly the same.

 As we came down from the escalator,

there was a wax museum.

We didn't go in because we had been to the one in Los Angelos. 

Will blog about it after the Vegas post. 

 If you take a picture with the real strip dancer,

you have to tip them, at least 2 bucks.

 I miss my long hair.

wuwuwu

It was pretty warm in the morning in Vegas.

We hanged around and bought our tickets to the Grand Canyon.

The tickets were expensive, around $300 for two persons. 

 We watched a magic show too.

If you are hardworking enough to look through the booklet provided in hotel.

There are free tickets for some shows,

and I just realised after I bought the tickets.

T.T

Mac King

 And this is the Magician, with his book and autograph. 

Scary zombie tried to scare a customer. LOL

I'll make myself afford to wear Chanel clothing one day!

 In the evening, we came to a mall.

Forum Shops.

All the luxury brands are inside!

Xu bought me a Marc Jacobs dress at $300+.

If for now, I won't make that purchase T.T

 A place that must go at night, Bellagio.

 Opposite Bellagio is Eiffel Tower, my favourite.

Everyone is waiting to watch the Bellagio Fountain. 

We were lucky to catch the free show in time.

That night was 'Time to say Goodbye'.

The water movement will follow the rhythm and it touched me.

='(

Here is the link for the fountain since I cannot post mine here:

So if you happened to go to Las Vegas, you must go to Bellagio.

I watched the fountain show almost every night without getting bored.

Don't worry, it won't be the same song everytime.

 Monte Carlo

 I dont understand his expression.
=.=

 After that, we bumped into Mario & Luigi.

Whole day hanging outside, we slowly walked back to our hotel.

Do you know in Vegas, we do not need a ride because the whole area is filled with hotels.

We just have to walk block by block.

So prepare your most comfortable sneakers.

 Enjoying the night view.

 Xu was so thin last year. Hoho

 The theme of this area is cosmopolitan.

All modern buildings.

 Bellagio fountain across the street.

 'Paris'

This is the 'New York Times Square'.

 Special service is legal here, so

shy advertisment all around!

There were even people distributing flyers on the street.

Just dial the hot line! hahaha

I will try to finish blogging all my vacations post before the next one!

I am going to Cancun Mexico on this Thanksgiving!

Counting down..18 more days!

Looking forward to it!
