As I have said in my previous post, I'm going to tell about our trip back to Mexicali and our Vegas trip. Daddy chose a different route to Mexicali. We had the San Diego route instead of Arizona. And we stopped on scenic views to take pictures. We had lunch at Chowking so it felt like I'm home away from home. Then we shopped for Filipino grocery items at Seafood City.
We arrived at Mexicali by 7 pm.Then we headed to a Pinoy party + Manny Pacqiuao fight viewing.
The week after my arrival, we had a nice 2-day vacation at Las Vegas. It was an achievement for me to go to another state since I am only familiar with California and Arizona. I was starstrucked with the place because I only get to see Vegas in Josh Duhamel's series, Las Vegas. Walking along the strip and seeing the place in the flesh gives me a sense of legit feels of the Sin City. People with glamorous clothes, walking along the strip with open beer can on their hands, that's how I see Vegas. Hotels and Casinos and Shopping Stores. Besides the strip, I personally enjoyed our stay at La Quinta Inn. It is quite inexpensive compared to other hotels but its service is never compromised. My sister and I had fun beating the heat by swimming in their pool. They also have spa.
The following day, we went to Hoover Dam. Hoover Dam control floods, provide irrigation water and produce hydroelectric power. The dam's generators provide power for public and private utilities in Nevada, Arizona, and California. The whole structure of the Dam looks very pleasing to the eyes most specially the concrete arch bridge.
The following morning, before leaving for Mexicali, we attended mass at the Guardian Angel Cathedral. Yes, the other side of Vegas. Then we had a mini-picnic at one of the rest stops in Nevada. Guess what we had? A bucket of chicken from Jollibee!

- Fun.
This blog was created August of 2008. Putting up an account here wasn't really on my plans. It's just that I was so crazy about Chris Tiu before and he runs a blog so I thought of creating my own as well. Years have passed, and I have grown yet I still keep my personal stuff here. Yes, things may change but one thing's for sure -- I will continue running this blog as long as I can.
