Day 4: Thanksgiving Thursday in Vegas

Another early start with a long drive from Oakhurst to Las Vegas. Carol had her first experience driving through the Mojave Desert. Brilliant scenery including the largest wind farm I’ve seen and a huge solar farm.

We arrived to a chaotic Vegas just after sunset, with along half the population of California. Aren’t these Americans meant to spend Thanksgiving eating turkey and pumpkin pie with their family? After checking in to the Excalibur we set out on foot to explore some of the strip.

Dinner was the largest pizza ever at the Bellagio. I think its tomorrow so I’m going to bed.

    Viva Las Vegas, glad you got there with Carol driving on the wrong side of the road and not lost in the Mojave desert. Also make sure you get a picture in front of the Welcome to Vegas sign on the strip near the airport plus don’t lose your shirt whilst your there.
