Top Of The Shop

Pretty uneventful 10 hour flight. Most interesting bit was the scenery outside the aircraft. Liked the Canadian glaciers and the mountains outside Las Vegas - sadly we were in a middle aisle seat so our view out was a little limited.

Third off the plane, second to immigration, however, Dufus forgot to complere one small section at the botom of the visa waiver form, so we were sent to the back of the ever growing line! All of that was academic though as our cases were probably the last off the plane.

The landing was a little up-and-down as it is extreamly windy here in LV at the moment. Very strong gusts. It's keeping the temperature higher though.

Richard at the front desk of the Signature gave us two choices for a room - floor 10, strip view, ready now. Floor 38 (top of the shop) balcony and strip view, ready in a hour. Needless to say, we waited :)

We walked down to the MGM Grand whilst we waited for our room. Got our comp cards, won $20, lost $20.

Finally got into out suite - very nice! View is superb, barring one giant crane that will need to be photo-shopped out of my photos later!

It's going to be a restless night tonight as the wind is really howling around the balcony at the moment - I'm nervous to go out there in case a gust of wind picks me up (stop laughing at the back there - it really is that windy!)

Even though its now 3:11 UK time, were off for some food!

I can see that pic getting a "copyright" stamp on when you get home, and then being sold on ebay hahaha, It was a good pic though S'.

Oh so you're on first name terms with the front desk ay? Did you get anything for free hahaha?

Yes, "up the comp cards"

Valid for a year i think? maybe you can pop back to LV when you do the CA trip later in the year?

S&L it looked like a building site, after using my specialist equipment(hahahaha) to analyse this pic carefully i have noticed that there is more than one crane in it, you sure you were really there? or .....Benidorm in the 80's, nah only joking!
