Then it turns into desert, and THAT made me think of that crazy lunatic in The Stand who walks through the desert and gets radiation poisoning.
The desert went on for a long time, and it is really really really hot. Unbelievably hot, bake you from the inside hot, ROASTING HOT. MAN, it's hot. But it's also just awe inspiring vastness. There is so much empty space, filled with just sand and rock and heat. It's a bit frightening. I feel it's full of danger and horrors.
I put my fingers out the window, at one point, to test the air. Tim accidentally closed the window on them. This is probably why you're always told as a child to keep your hands INSIDE THE CAR. It was very traumatic. Although, the excitement of the drive and destination totally outweighed the mashed up fingers. I pretty much forgot them quite quickly. One of them has started creaking, though.
Arriving into Vegas is pretty bewildering. It just seems so totally bizarre to build ANYTHING, let alone all these gigantic structures. Arriving at the Bellagio was quite dazzling. It's AMAZING. Like, mega mega plush. I LOVE IT. Tim loves it also. We bounced around our PLUSH room for a while and then hit the strip, dolled up. Obviously after playing with all the cool gadgetry and perks of the room. Opening and closing the curtains, for instance. When we got back the maids had tidied everything, laid out chocolates and put JAZZ on. It was like having really kind ghosts.
Vegas is completely crazy, but fun. We like it here, in a sort of outside-looking-in type way.
