Fantastic day in Lake Havasu City. Took a quick tour down to the lake via the London Bridge which was bought by Robert P. McCulloch from the City of London and reassembled in Lake Havasu (Read More). The water, even at this time of the morning, and beach were great. Should have left some time for a swim or seadoo's.
From Lake Havasu we headed on famed ROUTE 66 through Oatman, AZ. Where the Donkeys reign the main street, and the Hotel is wallpapered in dollar bills. Mike was trying to figure out how much money was on the walls???
Continued on ROUTE 66 to Kingman and then on to the Hoover Dam. The damn was very impressive and interestingly enough there are police stops on both ends leading into the damn since the terrorist attacks on 9/11. This, along with the tourist, made crossing the dam slow.
We rolled into Las Vegas and I thought it would be fun to ride down the Vegas strip. We came in at the North end in Old Vegas and rode down to the south end of the strip in mid afternoon. It was slow at times, hot, but fun! We tackled Vegas in less then a day, hitting all the hotel promotional attractions, walked the strip, tried to do a little shopping, and took in Cirque du Soleil's "O". Definitely need to allow for 2 nights next year.
