Day 09 - AZ, NV

Last night we arrived in Las Vegas, the carbon footprint from this place must be insane. Everything is lights and glitter- Jaz, it makes me think of you. We're staying at the Luxor and our hotel has: a casino, numerous 5 star restaurants, a mall, a few strip clubs, a wedding chapel, a tattoo parlor, an aquarium, the titanic/body works exhibits and tons of drunkards. I'm sure there are other things in here we don't know about. I wouldn't be shocked to see a lion sitting in criss angel's corvette to be honest. Las Vegas is the modern day Sodom and Gomorrah- it's down right over the top extravagant. Pics tonight.






The Grand Canyon.








We're aching to see a mountain lion.


Donna's prayer rock, serving us well.


I don't know what these crows eat but they're monstrous.









You kill it, they grill it.


Nick drove 40mi. out of our way and just when I was getting frustrated we saw a jackrabbit- and it was worth it.





Hoover Dam.
