Las Vegas

 

We met Arnold & Flo at the Luxor hotel for gambling lessons. We spend 45 minutes being taught the basics of Craps, the game where they throw dice on a big table and everybody always seems to shout…   Not the easiest of games to learn, I’ll just stick to blackjack, that way I feel I have at least some control over winning or losing. 

The Imax ride “in Search of the Obelisk” was not that brilliant. If you’ve done one if these “sit in a cart and be shaken very roughly while watching a movie on a big screen” you’ve seen them all… After a quick Mexican lunch we went to have a look at the Excalibur hotel which has a (you guessed it) medieval theme. But everything is done so cheaply it gets boring after 5 minutes…

Another “must do” in Vegas is to visit the M&M store. 4 stories of M&M’s, you’ll love it!  Have a look at the video (in High, Medium or Low quality) we shot that day and you’ll see us playing the monster slot machine and visiting the M&M shop.

After a nap we took a taxi to the Bellagio where we met up with Arnold & Flo in the Petrossian Bar for a cocktail. The Bellagio is one of the most beautiful hotels in the world. If you ever go to Vegas make sure you have a look inside as well.

We had dinner in the Al Dante restaurant in Bally’s and that was it for the day!
