Las Vegas

Whaaaatsup blogg!

Yeah, I know, I'm terrible at coming up with catchy opening phrases.

Anyways, we're finally here in Las Vegas, which feels completely surreal. We drove here from Phoenix, which took about 5 hours. Usually, I'm not a big fan of long car rides, but I quite enjoyed this one.
The scenery is amazing. The desert, the huge mountains off in the distance, all the cacti, and just this one road that goes on for miles. The vastness of the desert really gets you, and really makes you feel small. Really awesome to get to experience these environments which you wouldn't get to see in Sweden.

So after driving for hours, we finally got to Las Vegas, which was quite the view. After sitting in a car and seeing pretty much nothing, to all these awesome buildings (for those of you that dont know, a lot of casinos and hotels in Las Vegas have different themes to them, such as different parts of the world) which was really cool to see. Just like I said about New York earlier, this is one of those places you've seen on films so many times, and actually being here and recognizing buildings is awesome.

Las Vegas is just so much more than I expected it to be. Flashy neon signs on pretty much every building, street performers, the awesome architecture, and all the casinos. This place really feels alive. One thing that surprised me is that they are very strict with the rules in the casinos. You actually have to be 21 to gamble, and I thought you had to be 18. They barely allow you to be near the machines if you're not old enough. So anyways, I'll post more about it tomorrow, im really knackered.
