I'm loving the real-time updates. I don't think we've ever been to Vegas when it's been that bad in terms of rain...we were there once when there was a mini-monsoon and we were somewhere - I say maybe the Stardust parking lot, hubby says CC parking lot - and it was so flooded, we were trying to walk from the parking lot to the casino but it was quite deep (not nearly so bad as it sounds like it was, but cover your shoes deep) and some random stranger leaving the car park pulled up and offered us a ride through to the front of the property.

And we'll be there in 5 weeks - 5 weeks from just about now. Cannot wait!

Well it has certainly dried up today, however the loungers at the Platinum have rather wet cushions on them. Everyone was still lying on them, maybe they'll be drier tomorrow. It's toasty hot again, it was actually freakily almost cold last night. We went to McMullan's quiz in the car but it was freezing in there and we were doing pretty badly on the quiz so left. Also been a bit stressed because we had a bump in the car yesterday. Didn't want to say too much about it earlier because I was unsure how it would all work out. We took the car over to dollar at TI at 9am this morning, and got it all sorted. Guy just asked us to stand to the side and fill in the form in and that was it, then gave us a different car. We were quite worried about what would happen. Was a bit nervy about driving afterwards yesterday, we had to wait almost 3 hours for the police to come as well because of the floods, so it was a pretty miserable afternoon. The guy who we were in the bump with was pretty decent though and we stood and chatted to him while we waited for the police etc, and all was ok. I don't know if the law is the same here, but neither of us admitted fault but no-one seemed to be in denial either. In hindsight I decided it was his fault, I was going to change lanes, but when he explained to the police it sounded like he had moved across 2 lanes at once so really not a very smart move.

Anyway, spa bath now filled, washing machine on :rotfl:, an going to get down to Sunset Station for dinner.

It's our second last night now, got lots of things we'd like to do, but after yesterday I think we're just content to take it easy a little and not worry. Has been a stressful 24 hours and have only really just calmed down properly at the pool this afternoon. :cool:

Also we're stayin in a suite and no coffee maker anyone else got one? X
