You hear about it on TV shows, but nothing can prepare you for the sheer size of everything when you hit the bright lights of Las Vegas.

Sunbathing wasn't the greatest option, well not for a long period of time. Three gingers in over 40 degree heat, you could see where that would end up. But there is never a worry of having nothing to do. It might have been sweltering hot but when you can treat yourself to a delicious Fat Tuesdays and hit the monorail to get around the different hotels there is nothing to worry about.
We had done our research before heading out and made sure we would make the most of our nights in the incredible resort and it definitely didn't disappoint. Calvin Harris in Omnia was just a whole different world. I think we are so used to having DJ's come on for a quick half an hour set but not here. He must've been playing for over 3 hours!
The slight issue of him being on so long, the club being insane and wanting to make the most of it we crashed into bed around 5am. Your probably thinking that's okay, comfy bed and you can lounge by a pool the next day - perfect hangover cure. Yes it would have been if we had the time. But no we decided on a 14 hour round trip to the Grand Canyon leaving at 6:30am that morning. Well done on that planning. Pre-warning if you do go on a trip like this, don't bother bringing food as I swear to god Americans plan food stops on the journey, they are like a landmark in themselves. Anyway it actually turned out as great cure. The sights were absolutely stunning and something you have to go and see. The epic views are something I will never forget.
I have never gambled before but there was a first time for everything. $21 for my 2:1 and being 21 actually ended up being more successful than I thought. Maybe it was beginners luck, I say luck I didn't loose anything and gained around 1$20c so really it was nothing but I'm going to take it.

After my mini success, our next celebration was something we had all been super excited for all trip - the Britney Spears Piece of Me Show. I don't think we sat down at any moment of the show and we were definitely fan girling. But how can you not! An incredible jam packed day that will always hold a special memory.
Our last couple of hours before heading on to our last stop of the tour was the "trek" to the famous Las Vegas Sign. We were definitely not prepared for the heat. They had taken on the British etiquette of queuing to get your photo, which works very effectively as then you get no extras photobombing your picture. However there was no shade at all and quite a wait. Dedication to the photo, but totally worth it.
As I mention earlier we definitely felt like we could have stayed much longer. We never made it the whole way up and back down the 4 mile strip, definitely could have gone to more shows and never got to explore the old town areas just off the boulevard. Forgetting this, I loved every second and was so glad that we got to celebrate the finishing of uni in this incredible and crazy place.
