This is our hotel @ LV - Excalibur
In Vegas every hotel has a theme and my hotel theme is a castle. The hotel was probably 1 of the cheapest which is why most of the guests are teenagers. Vegas was a city that never sleep and a very happening place. On the first day we arrived, we saw a big group of people dress "sexily" seem to be attending a beach party. A topless "Mapo" even purposely walked passed us, trying to show off her figure! Though the hotel was full of punks, facilities wise still not so bad - Wifi available and the room was big especially the bathroom.
Every hotel will have a casino and they are so open that to access the lift lobby to our rooms, we illiterately have to walk passed the casino. There is no barrier to block off the casino and you can take photo, unlike in Singapore.
Nice spread of breakfast buffet
Day 5 - Vegas Free Day
Today is our free day and we are going to the biggest factory outlet - LV Premier Factory Outlet (North). Transportation in LV is very convenient, basically there are 2 types of buses; The Deuce and Strip& Downtown. Every bus-stop there is this tickets machine whereby you can pay by cash or credit card.
The Fare:
2 Hr. All Access Pass - US$5
24Hr. All Access Pass - US$7
3 Day. All Access Pass - US$20
I like their public transport system, unlimited rides within the specific time and the expiry of the card was also indicated behind the card.

Day 6 - Grand Canyon
Today we will travel across over to Arizona and proceed to one of the World's Greatest Wonders and World heritage - GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK. The weather here is super hot!!! The ride was a long ride. Must prepare at least SPF 40 Sunblock and bring a big umbrella else sure kana sun burn.
Come here must take the helicopter ride though is a bit expensive, it worth it as you will see the breathtaking view and it include a boat ride too!
Handsome Pilot!
You can't sit anywhere you like in the Heli, before boarding they will take your weight and assign the seat to spread the load evenly.
The Heli will drop us at a point and we have to walk pass the forest follow by this long staircase to proceed to the next station - Boat Ride
Our tour mates - The Teachers!!! quite a fun couple
One of our tour mates while taking the breathtaking view happened to "capture" us.....
can you spot us?
After completing the Grand Canyon, we are presented a visitation certificate.
