Day 179 - I Survived!!!!

Solange called today Boxing Day Birthday.....and both myself and Lindsey awoke feeling as though we had done a few rounds with Mike Tyson!!! But like prize fighters we weren't knocked down for long and were having breakfast and a vat of coffee by 9!!!

But like the rest of #GMT40 today had a full schedule - including the Stratosphere, a Graveyard and a Wedding!!!

The fatigued five (Nat, Linds, Sol, Dick and Moi) jumped on the monorail and headed for the Stratosphere Hotel. Nat and Dick wanted to do some horrific rollercoaster ride at the summit of the hotel...the rest of us declined and enjoyed the amazing view and Iced Margaritas!!!!


Then it was time for the Neon Graveyard, a museum for Vegas iconic signs - a fascinating place with so many colours and bulbs - a photographers paradise, I didn't stop snapping for an hour.  We were given a real indepth history of the signs and Vegas....but didn't hear all that much as my lens was too active!!!


Next on the itinerary was the Grinham's renewal of their wedding vows - Elvis style!! Oh my goodness, such fun...a random medley of romance, laughter, craziness and  "Love Me Tender"!!!   


The day ended in "Old Vegas" for the wedding feast - an old school Italian called Andiano, the steak was just amazing!  

5:2 - a week today I'm coming back to you!!!!
