Tucson

We made it to Tucson last night, after a VERY long day of driving. It looks like we are leaving for El Paso on Monday. So we have a few days to not be driving and hang out at Freja & Randall's house.

Las Vegas was weird and expensive. Adolfo was impressed by how much everything cost. We couldn't see more than the Strip and they didn't even have a fireworks show.

We were unable to go over the Hoover Dam on our way out because cars with trailers are prohibited. So we went farther south and crossed through Bullhead City. We didn't have to go through the switchbacks at the Hoover Dam, but we did have to cross some mountains and we almost didn't make it through the pass. The car started to over heat on one of the climbs and we had to pull over and sit for about 45 minutes while the car cooled. It was a good thing we bought a couple large bottles of water on our way out of Las Vegas.
