Calafornia again

Caafornia yet again, its getting boring now, 45 deg c , endless orange and lemon groves, lush green fields of every fruit you can think of. Only joking! So we got despatched to Vernon Ca, which is an industrial area to the south of downtown Los Angeles. We had 4 days to get there so we decided to see what Las Vegas was like. I was told you can park at any casino with a truck, so i decided on the MGM Grand on the corner of Tropicana Ave and Las Vegas Boulavard( the strip). I couldn't find the entrance so i ended up driving around the center of Vegas for about an hour until i found one i could get into, fun when your 75 ft long! So we took a stroll down the strip and had a look about. The next day we ran into LA. What a busy place that is! 6 lanes each way of solid traffic moving at high speed with no lane disipline. Barbara didnt speek much during this time, she just held on to the arm rests and looked scared. When we finally got tipped we had to go to Vetura, so that meant a trip up the Hollywood Freeway, but it was dark and busier so no photos, we'll get some next time. The next day we loaded bananas for Calgary, which is where we are now taking a reset.
