Las Vegas, Nevada

WE drove across the mountains and the high desert and down into Vegas without any major dramas.

When we arrived at the motel and got out of the car, the dry heat sucked the air and moisture out of our throats.

Someone at Motel Six had lied to Laura about how many people can stay in one room, so poor Charlotte has a makeshift bed made of surplus blankets and bedcovers.

After walking all the way back from Caesar’s Palace and the Jerry Seinfeld show, she was glad of any kind of bed. Despite to 95 degree heat, the room’s air-conditioning over-compensated and we were quite chilly during the night.

We have another day and night in Vegas, which will probably be long enough.

Newport Beach, California to Las Vegas, Nevada = 276miles.
