We got up this morning, packed the car and were ready to go. He said to me that I should take the first driving shift.
OK, said I reluctantly because I’d rather watch the scenery. I love to shift. What, no shifting? It’s an automatic and there’s no shifting. I don’t know how to drive an automatic. Ok-to the back seat with Kaci.
Most of the day was driving in Arizona and I’ll save the Arizona portion of the trip for the return trip. The one thing I wanted to do in Vegas was go to the top of the Statosphere-the tallest structure in the US west of the Mississippi River.
It’s what’s on top that I wanted to do:
What a great time can be had up there. There’s a restaurant (food!!). There’s also a roller coaster at the top (you can see a part of it). You’re already very high and some of the downs make it look like you’re going to “fly” to the bottom. See the center pole. That’s also a ride. They take you up to the top in a seat and then all of a sudden, it’s a free fall. It’s like safe bungee jumping. He’s done these rides but wouldn’t let me go on the rides. He said it was something else in the night with all of Las Vegas lit up way below you. That’s something you may not know about Vegas. The gambling is all over the world. Who needs entertainment and show girls when you have me and Kaci? The other thing you may not know is there are a lot of roller coasters closer to the ground. One even goes in and out of the casino floor. They wouldn’t let me go on those either. The fact that I’m a dog and they don’t allow dogs on these is no excuse, right? Las Vegas’ advertising slogan is “what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas”. My desire to get on these rides is NOT staying in Vegas-I still want to do them. It’s on my bucket list. Tomorrow we’re going to Utah and end up north of Salt Lake City.

The rides look scary to me! I’ll stay on the ground. Wooowooooo, Ku
Hey, you could have bought a ticket and I could have gone! What a deal.
I want all four paws planted on the ground when I eat. You would never see me in that restaurant or on the coaster. Oh guys it is called fear!
Place a small wager for me O.K.
Sweet William The Scot
They won’t let me in the casino, either. Good gravy, all this Vegas hype means nothing. If you’re a dog, forget it.
I didn’t realize you had a fun side…BOL.
Aroo to you,
Sully
Oh yeah-I’m completely nuts.
You girls are too cute in the back seat. You won’t catch me at that top of that Stratosphere, let alone on that rollercoaster. At least you know how to have a good time – if they’d only let you.

Even though I’m here, I have to do it vicariously. Go figure.
We just love your car seats! Mom doesn’t think we’d handle a long car trip well butt we reckon we’d do grrreat if we had comfy seats like yours.
VIVA LAS VEGAS!
They’re our moving thrones.
Now way would you get HER on that roller coaster! probably wouldn’t even get HER up the tower. Hope they let you in to some shows….at least.
XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
Nope, no shows. We’re leaving for Utah today.
OMD you wouldn’t get me on that roller coaster, I love your cosy little beds in the back Kyla. Thanks for taking us with you on your trip, it’s wonderful seeing all these new things š xxooxx

I’m trying to show interesting things that most don’t know.
A Roller coaster at the top – oh that sounds scary, but food sounds good :o) I agree with you Kyla, shifting is cool – “public-shifting”, what my mom prefers ( all people can hear your wild stirring with the gearstick) not so much. Thanks for inviting me to your tour Kyla&Kaci :o)
That’s the way She drives a non-automatic. Gears? Grind them ’till they fit.
I’m afraid that’s genetically determined :o) They have just x-chromosomes, so they think all things work crossed…
I say that he lets you sneak into his coat (er, I recognize that is summer in the desert) so you can go for a ride on the roller coaster!
Good idea-we’ll discuss this with Him.
I’ll pass on this ride. It made me a bit ill just looking at the pictures. I’m just not a thrill seeker one bit.
Have a woof woof day. My best to your mom. š
I get my thrills when She’s driving. The Stratosphere stuff is tame by comparison-at least that’s what I tell myself.
Wow Thats high. Not sure I would care for the ride but the food I will take. I will show my peep your car seat I could handle that.
Ho-ho-you’re right. The Food’s THE thing.
I’m afraid of heights. I think.
That would be one way to find out.
HOLY COWS!! No doggies allowed???! Puddles and Pip snuck in…I thinks you need to up your game gurl! Maybe a hat and a dress…they’ll never realize your a doggie!
(I know, I know, you don’t do clothes, butts if your gonna ‘double down’ your gonna have to make it to the tables! Now, go get dressed….)
Kisses,
Ruby ā„
I’ll be discovered when I lose my shirt.
I love you little travel beds, so cosy š
Remember, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!
