Day 19

We decided to spend a little bit more time this morning at the Grand Canyon, one last view.  John wanted to show me the trail he hiked down and the trail he hiked back up with his friend, Jimmy, five years ago.  I was shocked!  No way could I ever do that hike!  We also did a little shopping, and I finally got the Pendleton blanket that I've always wanted!  I did most of the driving today, until it was so windy that my hands hurt from holding the steering wheel so tight.  Then John took over for the last hour to Las Vegas.  Once we got into Vegas, we realized that it was going to be hot . . . 103 degrees!!!  We are staying at Treasure Island and for just a little bit more we could get a mini-suite.  The room is amazing - two bathrooms, HUGE bathtub, a large room with lots of space, and a beautiful view of the strip!  We spent most of the time in our hotel, spent a little time gambling (John was once again the lucky one!), and ate at the buffet.  After dinner, we decided to walk it off by walking down the strip now that the evening was a little cooler.  We walked about 2 miles and are now in our beautiful hotel room resting for a big day in Vegas tomorrow!
And finally the last state before we get back to California!
Our hotel - Treasure Island. 
We just realized that we have two door to our mini-suite!
