Roadtrip - Day 23: Las Vegas by day Leaving Las Vegas ...
(the player does not appear, click on it to directly access the site and listen song) Arriving at 4am in the hotel room, we were pleasantly surprised that there was no power in the room ... No severe hyper to sleep you say, but try to brush your teeth in the dark, or worse, get your pajamas in the pile of business not quite rows of 3 girls who just spent three weeks living in a tent and a car ... Fortunately there was a light in the hallway! And then the pleasure of waking up shortly after when all the lights in the room light up at once (obviously we had tried all the switches before realizing there was a general cut!).
So the next day (well a few hours later), when making the keys, I successfully negotiated (I knew I would be the commercial!) Compensation. Since we could not get refund because we had prepaid through Expedia
I asked for three tickets to ride the top of the hotel tower
(not the rooms are not top of the tower !).
So here is a small panoramic view of Vegas
The Strip :
Apart from the Strip, it is rather flat ...
At the top of the tower there are 3 attractions, including the X-Scream
(to 264 m high):
Especially do not look down ...
And Insanity-The Ride (274 m):
Well, like that just after breakfast, no thank you (good excuse, because after so no thank you !)...
Descent on solid ground to review the Strip during the day. A wedding chapel

A church ugly:
Both the night we let the atmosphere and the kitsch of the Strip, both by day it feels really weird, it was flatly feeling to walk into a movie set:
The Bellagio
:
You could not miss the famous fountains show, too bad that Music was not the Clair de Lune by Debussy otherwise we would have really believed in Ocean's 11 (we had Con Te Partiro, but I see in the list
there also
God Bless the USA a
masterpiece that I discovered during the road trip just on a local radio station)!
