Ah.
:D
Tied for my favorite stop of the trip (with Cooke City - yes, totally different ends of the spectrum).
OHMYGOODNESSITWASSOCOOLANDFUNDANDAWESOMEAND -
Exciting.
It was so lively. I've never EVER been to a big city like that. Ever. And being able to walk around, to experience the feelings, was unforgettable. We went walking down the strip at night.
So. Out-of-this-world.
Street preformers of all sorts (including one Alfred from America's Got Talent - contortionist) dotted the sidewalks, Mexicans handed out cards with their "merchandise" on them. They had a varitey - you want black or white? Ginger hair? Brown eyes? Short or tall?
...
Like I said - out of the this world.
What I also noticed, was the outrageuous amount of homeless people sitting on the fringes of the sidewalks, off to the dark side. Some held signs to try to earn money. Others didn't even seem capable of standing. It was... eye opening.
And while the flashing neon lights of every color blinded me, I couldn't help but see past it all. Past the glitz and glammor, the shiny and bright, to the gritty, dirty underbelly that is Las Vegas.
Sin City.
It's a dark ciy, really. Full of interesting characters. You'll never have a dull moment, I promise. (unless you stay in the hotel room all day, like SOMEONE I know)
And well, I fell in love with it.
Oh, and we went to Hoover Dam.
Blah.
Too hot.
Like, wayyyy too hot. 120 degrees hot. -_-
