I'm reunited with my friends from Phoenix. So good to see you!

Checking out the gardens at the Flamingo Casino

Yes, they have flamingos at the Flamingo

You would never know you are in the middle of Vegas

More sights at the Flamingo

The condo in Phoenix connected me with some amazing people that I cherish. The condo is sold but the good people there I am still connected with.

Why gave I never come out to the gardens?

Off to the Coke bottle on the strip. Going to sample Coke from around the world.

This one was really bad - gag. It tasted like a smoky bbq sauce. Epic fail.

Stopping into Netflix's Stranger Things exhibit and store. Very cool.

Why is everything bigger in Vegas?

Chocolate martini at NYNY

Friendly staff at checking desk.

Tight spot with the overgrown shrubs (now trees). I was advised a renovation is going to take place to remove them and add a new privacy screen.

We were luck, we could open the door and step down into a clearing, our friends were not so lucky and their steps touched the shrubs.

Dusty and no room to sit outside.

Cody had lots of room to roam in the dirt. YUCK!

• We did not stay here, our friend who were at the Kingman KOA advised they will not go back to Kingman and continue down the road to Laughlin. We should have listened and changed our reservation but time got away with us and we forgot to change our reservation. So, lesson learned. We will take the advice of our trusted travelling friends! Thanks Kathy and Terrill. Can't wait to meet up with you again soon.
