Grand Canyon/ Las Vegas/ San Diego

Now I´m in San Diego. We got here today from Las Vegas. Since last time I wrote in the blog I have done a lot.

Last Friday I was in the bottom of Grand Canyon (Plateau Point). Very hot. More than 120F. It was absolutely worth it. A beautiful trip along Bright Angel Trail. I had to drink a lot of water. At least more than a gallon. We stayed in Grand Canyon until sunset.

Saturday we drived to Las Vegas. We parked by Hilton hotel and walked up and down the Strip. A lot of people, neonflashlights, big hotel. I liked the light and watershow outside Bellagio. Something like that would be great in Lillelungården in Bergen. MGM, Bellagio and the Mirage were the best. And the Classic Auto museum in the Imperial Palace. They have the Mustang Shelby GT500 from Gone in 60 seconds in stock. Great car.

After a long night we got up late Sunday. Today we rented a speedboat (250 hp and almost 50 knots) and had some fun in Lake Mead (Hooverdam water). We also rented wakeboard and waterskis. With these toys and cliff´s we enjoyd a hot day in the desert between Nevada and Arizona.

Today, Monday, we got to San Diego. More from here in the next post.
