Day 22/23 - Las Vegas to Lancashire

So sad it’s our last day.😢

The flight is about 21:30 so we’ve still got a good day yet. Today we headed off to Hoover Dam. The dam spans the border between Nevada and Arizona. Parking on the Nevada side costs $10 but there is an option to park for free on the Arizona side so you can guess where we parked.





We visited the visitor centre which we thought was poor value at $10 each. Visitors have to have a thorough security check before entering.



There’s a new virtual at the dam which is at a memorial to a dog which ‘owned’ the dam and was killed in a very unfortunate accident. The tale was very sad.

Moving on.  We parked up by the start to the walkway across the massive Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge and Mark walked across it to take some photos, I waited in the car as I was far too hot as I'd had too much sun while looking around the dam.



We then headed back to Las Vegas doing a few Virtuals on the way.




Then it was time to take the hire car back and head to the airport.

The end of a completely awesome trip.  We had had so much fun in the 3 weeks we've been away and have made so many memories, I have to pinch myself to believe we've seen half the things we've seen.  Thank you America, we had a fabulous time xxx

Day 23:  Landed at Heathrow 15:00 and drove back up to Lancashire, arriving home about 20:30 after stopping off briefly on the way.

In total we drove 3700 miles!
