The trip

We were 4, we saw it sunny hot, we saw it pleasant warm, we saw it cold. In the early hours there was some dew, I was supposed to be asleep, that was the plan, I was asleep, was I, no, I opened my eyes, where am I looking, I cannot see anything, I thought I was looking at the windshield, then I hear, "Dude, I cannot see anything". So much fog, they were constantly discussing, and I was giving unsolicited suggestions, he he he, it was so much fun troubling the driver, then I think, ok lets shut up, before I was told to. It took hours, but successfully we steered it through. It was exhausting, why for me? becoz I couldn't catch proper sleep.

Next was the dry part, it was like a location for a movie shoot, a straight road and endless desert on either sides, we were like driving hours and hours, but still at the same place, pretty much identical and girr... this time I was at the front seat bored of looking that I forced myself to turn back to see their faces. This was exhausting too.

And finally was the adventurous part, and yes, I was driving, this stretch was full of valleys, ups and downs. There were so many twists and turns, and it was fun and exciting before the tummies were complaining. Before they were taking a complete toll, we hit an elevated road, and when it ended, there was an ocean of lights, and my eyes poped up, with a jaw dropping excitement, wow, welcome to the fabulous Las Vegas.
