Day 21: Kingman to Las Vegas

Left Kingman after a wee bit of tiki touring around. Regan needed to return a sim card to Amazon. Needed to find a UPS office as against the local post office (as was suggested from a third party.

First stop for the day was Route 66 Oatman (home of the burroughs/ donkeys). Kerry and Regan had fun feeding them. The fowls had tags on their forehead telling visitors not to feed (as they are still on mothers milk). Witnessed a shoot out between 4 cowboys (bandits). After Oatman, we hit Nevada and Las Vegas. By entering Nevada we gained an hour (from Mountain time to Pacific time). Regan and Kerry had booked into Caesars Place while we had booked the Paris. Parked the car at the self parking at the Paris. Just before this event, while on I-15 towards Flamingo Road, we were almsot involved in a head-to-nose prang. Something up front caused everybody to break hard (we were all travelling around 70 mph), the guy behind us came real close to rearing us. Disturbing and quite frightening.

Early in the evening "she who can not be named" and I took a Deuces bus down to Fremont area. The RTC in Las Vegas runs a very good bus service. For $8/ person we had 24 hour access to both the Deuces  bus ( which cruises the strip from the Mandalay to downtown-Freemont area.

The Fremont experience is worth witnessing. Covered in area that covers at least 4 blocks. Great lighting, zip lines running overhead, bands playing plus people (male and females in a state of undress). These semi- naked people pose (for a $ consideration) for photos. One group of males made up like "Kiss" with g strings only and females with breasts exposed ("she who can not be named" was less than impressed.

Having seen the sights of downtown Fremont, we headed back uptown and The paris. The Paris Hotel and casino was packed. Liked the little french resturantes and a real sense of France (just masses and masses of people). So, thats it. Time for a little sleep. Tomorrow is shopping day. Yea, time to spend some $$$.
