Las Vegas & Grand Canyon
On Tuesday we reached Las Vegas, but not without stopping at a shopping mall before. In Las Vegas we found a cheap RV park at Sam's Town and I think it was the same RV park as 20 years before.

Las VegasIn the late afternoon we visited the strip with Cesar's Palace, Paris Las Vegas, The Venetian and all the other big gambler paradises. One the one side it was overwhelming to see the Rialto Bridge, the Eifel Tower or artificial waterfalls in Las Vegas, on the other side it is a big waste of valuable resources. Back to Sam's Town we risked a play at a slot machine and Philip won something (ok, it was only 10 cent).

Next day we visited the Hoover Dam. On the way to it we had to pass a security point where we had all to get out of our RV.

Grand CanyonOn the way to the Grand Canyon we come in a little sandstorm. The weather was not so good this day and we saw lightnings in the distance. But we had luck and an overwhelming view when we reached the Grand Canyon. There were many people from Germany, but we saw also some people from Tibet and many Asian people.
