Las Vegas and Grand Canyon

hey people ^^
lets see what i've done in the past week...

lets start with last friday...
my family and i went to Las Vegas with a tour group thing where we were placed way in the back... along with some girls that i've formally meet later on...
we stoped at a random outlet around 1100 where they had like clothe shops... (everything that didn't interest me basically)
then we left around 1145 to go across the street where we ate at KFC.
we've arrived at Las Vegas around 1600 (0400pm) at the hotel/casino called Imperial Palace...
we took the elevator up to the 17th floor where we put our stuffs inside.
my sister, my cousin, and i went down to the casino via stairs to mess around... but only to go back upstairs via stairs caus i forgot my camera... we took the stairs caus the elevators took way too much time to get to our floor XD
so after that, we took the elevator down because we were all tired at that time...
then when i was about to take another picture, i found out that i left my memory card upstairs...
so i was pretty pissed at that time... and so are my sister and my cousin
but oh well it was fun anyway hehehe
so then we went around... then we went to the casino that was linked to our casino/hotel which was harrahs.
we went downstairs where we find ourselves hungry and thirsty... so we went outside to find restaurants......and a McDonalds ^^ everything was so expensive i just hoped they had the dollar menu here too.... so all you could hear me saying was "let there be a dollar menu, let there be a dollar menu" XD
so at the end they had a dollar menu where i got a small drink, and my sister got ice cream hehehe
then after that we meet with our parents where we walked around looking for stuffs to do and all... then at some point, we went into this one casino which had like green everywhere to eat...
we went to the far end where they had like the food court...where they had people playing beer pong right beside us XD i mean seriously... they actually had a beer pong tournament hahaha
well after we finished eating, we all left to retire to our room where i grabbed a few green hats on my way out ;)

then saturday morning we meet downstairs to go to the Grand Canyon...
we stoped in the way to eat something but i forgot what i've eaten hahaha i should have wrote things down XD then we stoped to pick up this one dude... apparently his name was Doc Holiday and he was 150-ish years old... which was a bunch of bullcrap to me hahaha
but anyway he told us about the dangers about the wild areas here and some history about the place and all... then i don't remember how it got started but i think he asked what we ate here as in the cowboys and crap so my father busted out "ROADKILL" it was funny and humiliating at the same time hehehe
then at some point he asked a similar question and it was me that busted out another "ROADKILL" XD
then out of nowhere some time around here, my camera lost it focus... i couldn't get a focus on things and the pictures turned out blurry...
when we got to the ranch, we got a ride around the place by a carrage...
when we came back we already had to go to the skywalk which was on the eagle point, it was called the eagle point because of a rock formation that looked like an eagle... it was UBER trippy!! i mean it was like walking on the sky... you were literally walking on glass XD
after the Skywalk, we went to the uguano point or something like that... which means bat poop... don't ask -.- i don't come up with the names... but anyhow.... IT WAS INSANE!!!!! i got to climb this mountain of rocks and the trippy part was that if you slip, you fall for like 18 seconds before hitting the ground... XD but nonetheless it was fun hahaha
then it was dinner time ;) the food wasn't that bad... the musician wasn't bad for country songs too... and they had this dude....the magician...damn i totally tripped out when he did his crap...
my cousin and i tried to figure out all of his tricks but it was pretty though XD
then after eating, we went to our cabins before this one dude started a bonfire and busted out marshamallows and smores XD
we sat there for few minutes eating smores and listening to two old dudes with guitars singing country musics...

monday morning i woke up around 0500 where i was supposed to have a morning jog with my father... so at 0515 i stepped outside where i jogged around the cabins ALONE XD till my lungs were on fire from all the dust in the air
around 0600 i sat in front of my cabin where i watched the sunrise... the view was breath taking...
then people started to wake up, and we had breakfast and headed home after that ;)
on the way back we had newly assigned seats... so i was sitting in the middle of the coach beside the two girls that i mentioned earlier... they were sisters... and i thought the one sitting right beside me was the youngest but it turns out that i was wrong XD we exchanged emails and phone numbers at the end and all turned out well ^^

well that's all that happened ^^
peuce out peps
