Las Vegas and Grand Canyon

Las Vegas was gratuitosly ostentatious. Good fun, pretty cheap for America - I suspect subsidies to get people into the casinos. Just a tad over the top though - fake volcanoes, new york skylines, eiffel towers, arthurian castles, waterfalls, white tigers (ok, they were real), more neon than you can shake a stick at. Great food - eat as much as you like for $10, and its really nice food. Nothing to do except see the casinos at night, so I did a day trip to the grand canyon. This is worth seeing. I can´t really describe it. Its too big. No, its bigger than that. Its 3 kilometers top to bottom, and about 180 degrees left to right. Errr... here´s a picture.
