How could Paul cross the Hoover Dam without a stop to check out the generators? A very impressive piece of engineering. About twice the capacity of Manapouri and a huge concrete dam jammed in a narrow rock gorge. It was tourist central and pretty hot (about 30) but well worth it. Back in Vegas at the Tropicana again, 
we just had time for one more trip up and down the Strip. Paul vaguely remembered canals and gondolas from his last trip here in 1990 so we set off in search of the Venetian casino. Inside the casino on the second floor we found the Grand Canal complete with godolas and “outdoor” piazzas. Only in Vegas!
The alarm went off at 4:45am in order to get the red-eye to Newark to meet up with Andy and Sarah. Handed back the Chevvy Impala rental and noted 1600km of road tavel. Made it to the gate just as the plane was boarding. NYC here we come.
