We left LA today and travelled to Vegas via Calico Ghost Town 
.
Calico is a former silver mining town, long desserted like many small mining towns in the desert here. THis one has been turned into a tourist attraction with a few of the original buildings still there. We found the original bits quite interesting as they told the story of the town and the people who lived there. The newer additions seemed quite pointless though and were mainly gift shops.
Still, an interesting stop, slightly overshadowed by the excitement of the fact that we’re now in Vegas.
You might not hear from us for a couple of days because tomorrow we’ll be joining in on our annual pub crawl. Although the pub crawl is taking place in Buckinghamshire as always, we’ll be doing our best to match our friends in the casinos from over here, which means I’m due a drink at about 3am.
What do you reckon, red or black?
