We woke up at 4.30 AM to grab the last chance to see the sunrise at Bryce Canyon National Park. It was freezing cold with strong winds, even it was only 10-12 degrees. Each of us wore at least 3 to 6 clothes to keep ourselves warmer still can’t bear the cold. Not to say we got to stand there for one and half hours to see the sun rise up!
[p/s: i wore 6 clothes: warmer, 2 t-shirts, 1 sweater, 1 jacket and 1 external jacket]
Sunrise and Bryce Canyons
Probably because of too cold, we' didn’t appeared excited as we thought when the sun finally showed up. One thing for sure, after we saw the sunrise, then we’re officially said Bye Bye to Bryce Canyon. Awww…
We headed towards Las Vegas via UT state routes, then turned onto I-15 S which passed through Arizona and entering Nevada. The whole trip took us 4 and half hours with 254 miles.
On the way back to Las Vegas
Nothing much to see on this route back to Las Vegas, but as far as we concerned, we actually did passed the Dixie National Forest, Zion National Park and some small cities/towns such as Cedar City, Hurricane, Washington, Mesquite and Bunkerville during this trip.
We arrived at Las Vegas on time and straightaway went check in at Trumph Hotel where was the hotel we stayed for first night at Las Vegas. It was the only 5 star or luxury hotel we stayed in these two weeks in US, we appreciated everything and every moment we had in this room, such as enjoyed the view of Las Vegas city from room window, the electronic tv attached in bathroom’s mirror, hot bath spa jacuzzi, comfy beds and sofa, coffee and watching tv. Ah, it was a pleasure.

We also went to have the famous Las Vegas International buffet at Rio hotel. With a person charged only USD 17, it is over worth the money we paid because we can have unlimited free flow of drinks (soft drinks, coffee, tea, water), japanese and chinese cuisines, typical american food and desserts, grilled steak and roaster chicken, ice creams (a brand that similar to Haagen Danz) and etc. Somemore, if you want to sit there for whole afternoon, also can. It is just the matter whether your stomach can consume so much food or not. lol
Two days at Las Vegas, we went to shopping at Las Vegas Premier outlets, there are so many things to buy from Coach, Burberry, Banana Republic, French Connection, CK, Guess, VanHussen, Charles Russe, Old Navy, Crocodiles and all the big name you can named it, can be found in this outlet and all the items are at at least 75% cheaper than price tagged in Malaysia’s store! This outlet is so much better than LA’s one. I think even i spent USD750 still worth after i compared the price back in KL and Kuching. =p

Other than shopping, we also visited the famous Las Vegas Fremont’s street at downtown and Las Vegas Strip. Of cause, played few hands of slot machines but very unlucky, we only won USD1 after so many attempt to win. Gambling is evil, better don’t addict.
Entertainments at Las Vegas: Slot machines, Stripper shows, Pole dancing outside and inside casinos
Nightlife at Fremont’s street
Nightlife and fountain shows at Las Vegas Strip
Only Jesus can save you! No more gambling, drinking and prostitutions! Sadly, people there seem never bother about this.
We all had a good time at Las Vegas, though the place is really a sin city, with prostitutes, drinkers, gamblers every where. But the food is cheap, clothes are cheap, and many free entertainments such as free show at Treasure Island hotel, free concert at Fremont street and etc. I’ll go back to Las Vegas again, because i only walked half way of Las Vegas Strip! Definitely, gambling not something i like and hate the feeling of people passing by me with smelling of alcohol.
