Cannonball Run Day 18; this day in 1990


Woke up in a foul mood 'cos I was freezing! Went straight into the showers to warm up and spent ages just standing under the hot water.

We got underway after washing the van AND all our filthy washing, driving to Bakersfield to do some shopping; ie, a sleeping bag, so I don't freeze again tonight!! Finally, we got on our way and our next destination is slightly more glamorous than the rest; Las Vegas!!!

We drove (between us), approximately 500 miles until we saw the strip of lights in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Yee-hah, Las Vegas!!

We drove through town at about 10pm and saw all the famous names; Caesars' Palace, Stardust, The Mirage etc. What a fanstastic sight. Anyway, we decided to crash for the night so we parked in a camp (without paying) and fell straight to sleep, exhausted.


(In our new sleeping bags, woo-hoo!)
