Just got back from my first trip to Vegas - wow - a walk in psychotic episode if ever I had one (almost as bad as watching "The Beast" after a 3 day spell of sleep dep.) - of course, now I need to go back so I can explore off strip - oh and take a car so I *can* explore off strip and try escape all those little pocket universes - having pretty much walked everywhere, its unreal how the scale of things gets distorted and how things that look about 5 minutes away are anything but (that was a taxi trip back to the hotel).
Then again - now that I know I need a next time, there's all the other things to go & look at - I particularly fancy the atomic testing museum - especially now that I know to book in advance (for security reasons) so I can go visit the test sites.
All in all, it was a hell of a come down getting back to the UK - particularly as it was snowing when we landed at Newcastle.
Then again - I think that the impending nervous breakdown I've been working on has been safely averted for a little while - and I have a built in excuse to get holiday time from work - flibble...
In the mean time - if you haven't so far, stop what you're doing and go see Sin City *now*
