So that’s it! This is the end of our Los Angeles, Palm Springs, Las Vegas trip. We departed the Luxor and headed for the airport. Got on our flight without incident, other than having to deal with a snarky barista at the Starbuck’s at the airport.

We flew first class to Seattle where we caught a [...]

We started this day in Vegas (our last real day there) by having an overpriced light breakfast of fruit and pastries, along with some ridiculously priced coffee at Starbucks. After that we went back to the Paris hotel and did the normal tourist thing of walking around in the hotel/casino. Paris has a [...]

This was one of the more exciting days in Vegas. We started the day by changing our car from the little SUV that we used to get to the Grand Canyon for a more interesting Dodge Charger. We kept squealing the tires on it everywhere we went, even though it only had a [...]

This day we went for a road trip across the Nevada desert to the Grand Canyon. Stopped for a great breakfast in Boulder City, NV which for the two of us, cost less than one buffet breakfast at the Luxor. We continued along to Lake Mead and made our way along the top [...]

Our first full day in Las Vegas was mostly an orientation day. We went out and drove “The Strip” to see all the big hotels (see video). We also stopped at an Albertson’s to buy some groceries for our room. Then we went on a little walking adventure to see a couple [...]

Well, slightly sadsies today, having to leave Palm Springs.  We hung around as long as we possibly could until the maid said “Check out is 11:00!  Get the hell out!”

We reluctantly left our beautiful resort and made our way to Las Vegas.  Surprisingly navigating the freeway traffic was not a problem and we only had [...]

Wow, things just get better and better here. We have been enjoying our resort – see the tour below. We liked it so much here that we stayed an extra day.

We have begun to get into a routine. Steve goes for a bike ride in the morning while I get orgnized and [...]

Hi Folks:

Our second day in Palm Springs was really fun. It was a lazy day by and large. Steve went for a bike ride – the bike which was rented from a local company that dropped it off right at our location. Then we explored Palm Springs a little bit by going [...]

Departing LA and getting out of the city was surprisingly uneventful. Not too much to tell you. The drive to Palm Springs was interesting, and the resort is fantastic. Love love love it here, and the resort, too.

Had a great lunch at a Vegan restaurant, and bought a bunch of groceries at [...]

The video doesn’t really say it all. We couldn’t show you the really fun rollercoasters because we didn’t want to have the camera go flying. We couldn’t show you Splash Mountain, because we didn’t want to drown the camera. Steve shot 1 hour of footage, but we managed to compress it into [...]
