Plastmasinis miestas / City of plastik fantastik

Skrydi i Las Vegas, persedant Sarloteje, praleidau skaitydamas protingus zurnalus.

Las Vegas orouoste su duona ir druska pasitiko losimo automatai, lauke - karstis ir tvankuma. Nerades tinkamo hostelio, is anksto uzsisakiau viesbuti Sahara kazino ir pirma karta po Azijos miegojau savo dideliame kambaryje su vaizdu i jonvabaliais isklota miesta.

Trumpas pasivaiksciojimas zymiuoju bulvaru iki artimiausio kinieciu restorano (po viso amerikietisko slamsto puciuosi kaip balionas) ir atgal namo i keistu sapnu karalyste.

The flight from New York to Las Vegas sounds like a poshy one but the stop to change the plane in Charlotte. First thing to greet me in Las Vegas airport was slot machines, outside - hot and humid evening. I had to book a room in one the casino's hotel, no chance to find a decent hostel there. First time since Asia I had my own room with the view.

Short walk to the closest chinese place (all that american junk food makes me fat in a minute) and back to bed to get ready for an early morning.

Nemegstu organizuotu eskursiju, bet tai buvo vienintelis budas pasiekti Didyji kanjona nevairuojant. Anksti ryte, surinkus spaliukus is ivairiu viesbuciu, pajudejom link pietinio kanjono krasto.

Vairuotojas/gidas (trumpai supermenas) zere faktus, dalino istorijas, spigino saule. Pirmasis sustojimas - Hoover uztvanka, pastatyta trisdesimtaisiais, Didziosios depresijos metu, kai vyrukai dirbo uz kapeikas ir statybu metu daugiau kaip simtas zuvo.


Kol privaziavom kanjona, oras subjuro negyvai - liepos menesi prasideda lietaus sezonas. Gamtos stebuklas pasidenge debesimis ir kapojanciais lietaus lasais. Ta proga sukuriau astru dviposmi:

Super kanjonas,
Oras kandonas.

poeto nuotrauka

Lietus aprimo po poezijos proverzio, supermenas pristate i kita apziuros taska. Stipri vieta, kuria geriausia apibudins nuotraukos.






I don't like group tours but that was the only way to reach Grand Canyon. Different people from different hotels, tons of stories and information from the driver/guide (in short superman) and killing sun.

First stop - Hoover Dam built in thirties during the Great Depression when workers were paid very little and more than hundred of them died.


It's a long way to canyon and when we get there the weather changed to really hard rain (from middle of July it's like that every day). The canyon is amazing, rain stopped pretty soon and here some pictures for you.






Las Vegas - vieta uzpildyti Maslovo piramides dugna. Zinoma, karaliauja losimo preparatai, manau, kad ir gimdymo namuose busima mama gali pralosti metu sauskelniu biudzeta. Tada visi kiti zemiski dalykai, kokiu tik nori ir kiek tik reikia.

Man patiko, bardakas kaip Naujuju metu nakti, smagi plastmase. Pralosiau po dvidesimt doleriu pries miega po eskursijos Saharoj ir belaukiant autobuso i San Francisco salia esancioje pigesneje kazino gatveje.


Gerai, kad nesu azartiskas, nes jau grisciau namo prasvilpes santaupas.

I really liked Las Vegas, it's so fake and cheesy but they don't hide it. Of course the king is casino and gambling followed by anything your heart or any other body part desires.



The famous strip is buzzing like on New Year's night. I'm not a gambler and lost only 20 dollars each time I played. No begginer's luck or let's I'm lucky I'm not in to gambling:)
