Vegas Denver pics

  1. Ok so it doesn't feature any VWs (I did spot one solitary T25 outside a ranch in Colorado) but I thought you might be interested in seeing a couple of pics of my very tough business trip.

    I had to go to a conference at the Mandalay Bay in Vegas, and having never been fussed about going to LV was not entirely sure it would be my cup of tea - hotels and casinos? Boring.

    WRONG.

    Vegas is the most AMAZING place in the WORLD. Just big and loud and flash and brash and crazy and mental all times 10000000. It's like nothing you can describe and nothing you can expect. And it has NO right to be there - it's in the middle of hundreds of miles of arid desert.

    I absolutely adored it. I'd run out of superlatives by day two and by the time I got to my helicopter trip was so speechless that I actually cried. Mainly because we entered the Canyon to the theme from Raiders of the Lost Ark, which was actually a close second behind taking off in the chopper to the theme from Top Gun.

    INCREDIBLE.

    After the conference, I went onto Denver, Colorado for 2 nights to visit some family and stock up on gen u wine cowboy clobber for our forthcoming country and western camp (!!!)

    Hope you enjoy the pics, there are about a million more on my facebook if you want to add me for a nosey!

  5. Love the horn, we'll ignore the fact that you really shouldn't have brought it into the country ::) This now makes you a smuggler both into the US and into the UK - that's pretty good going ;)
