Day 6 – Today was our planned day off in Vegas. The drive there was pretty cool. Lots of windmill farms and some beautiful mountain scenery past Bakersfield. I found Bug City in a truck stop and was pleased to get my candy fixation. In Vegas we managed to score a room at the Flamingo Hilton on the 28th floor! The room had a perfect view of the strip and was great to stay in. We felt like total high rollers. Needless to say it was hot as hell in Vegas, so after a night of tooling around the town we went to the hotel’s pool party. There we swam and listened to the not so soothing sounds of the poolside DJ. I called it a night early but Kevin, Jim and Justin went over to the Hard Rock where they saw Cypress Hill and a few more celebrity types. I wish I hadn’t slept in. Dave managed to meet up with a friend who got him into the Misfits show. Normally I would complain about getting the shaft for not getting into the show but I think we all got the better end of the deal tonight.
