I am not at all surprised that Las Vegas is called Sin City. We were driving down the strip last night amazed-the lights and allure are fascinating and sickening at the same time. There were guys on the street corners handing out flyers on how to get sexy women to you in 20 minutes. I can’t imagine being a lonely, unsaved man in that city. Interestingly we are reading through the book of Genesis with the kids and are at the part of Sodom and Gomorrah. Las Vegas was a great visual picture of temptation and how easy it is to get caught up in it.
We did find a fun place. It is called M&M World. They had dispensers full of every color and kind of M&M and you could fill up your own bag of them. The smell in there was intoxicating, but we had self control and just looked. We were actually hot today. It was up at 109 degrees. We saw the miniature Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, Caesar’s Palace, the Pyramid, a billboard for Garth Brooks that said Garth, and fireworks at Treasure Island.
We were so tired last night, that we went to bed right when we got to the hotel and slept until nine in the morning. Cale slept until ten. It felt so good to sleep in. That is what we needed. Now we are off to the Hoover Dam.
