拉斯維加斯 / Las Vegas, 8/2006

After a 5-hour drive behind slow traffic, we arrived at TI around midnight. To our dismay, the room was much smaller than we had expected, and the only place for Jacky to sleep was the narrow space between our beds. Not a good way to start the weekend.













So we scrambled to put up a makeshift bed for poor Jacky...





Looks nice, doesn't it? But we all know looks isn't everything, and Jacky's awkward test drive confirmed that.














Well, onto the floor you go then...





Pansie's ability to talk is simply amazing. She put Gin to sleep without even changing her position.











On our way to visit Pansie at The Venetian show floor the next day.

Waiting in line to pig out at Le Village Buffet at Paris.





No Vegas album is complete without some night shots.
















Waiting for the water+fire show outside Mirage.








While waiting for the show to start, Jacky practiced his 鹹豬手.





Later we drove down to Fremont Street to check out the big screen and the old Las Vegas.
















































































Pictures from Gin:

Playing a few games of 大老二 before going to bed.









Having a late night meal at IHOP, which was a big mistake.

This picture is a perfect example of why I always bring my own tripod instead of asking random strangers to take my pictures. The chain-smoking old geezer not only didn't bother to compose the picture, the smoke from his cigar almost blocked out everyone! Imagine you took the picture with a film camera on your once-in-a-lifetime Vegas trip!!
