We set off from our Casino Hotel this morning. We filled up with petrol - $2-30 a gallon which is almost the same price as a litre in the UK. I paid more than that for our gallon of reserve water!
We travelled along to Red Rock NCA just outside Vegas. We did two trails there. The first was Calico Tanks which was a good trek through multi-coloured rock (buff, pink and red sandstones plus older limestone on top though faulting). The second was Icebox Canyon which was a great trek into a canyon finishing in a climb up to some pools under an overhang.
We're now in NE Las Vegas in the Aviation Inn. Tomorrow we head off to Valley of Fire State Park.
We Watched the Rugby on the PC this evening - not good!
