viva Las Vegas!

* Arrived.

* Slot machines were right outside the arrival gate, even before there was a bathroom to be found

* Had to take a shuttle to the other terminal to catch my shuttle to St. George.

* It's overcast and spitting rain here today, even some thunder and lightning and a balmy 31 degrees.

* Humid air conditioning in the airport, I sweat every time I move.  Yuck yuck yuck.

$3 for a luggage cart = worth every penny

* cheetos and a diet coke for "lunch" instead of a freaky $9 tuna sandwich.  Some real food soon plz?

* texting Jack throughout the day makes him seem not so far away

*I can't believe I'm in Vegas!

* US money looks like play money to me

* Very cool to see some of the famous landmarks of Vegas as the plane landed.   Bizarre to see neighborhoods without a spot of green grass or trees, but a big pool in the back yard.  Grass is reserved for a few public parks and golf courses I guess.

* Flight attendant jokes:
"Why is there no gambling in Africa?  There are too many cheetahs."
"That rough landing is not the pilot's fault.  It's not the flight attendant's fault.  It's the asphalt."

* I slept a little on the plane.  I would have sold my soul for a bed.  Did I mention I hate traveling?

hot weather, travel, utah, vegas
