Fred's out on the strip. Las Vegas or bust

So I'm feeling at home amongst the luxury that is the Bellagio Hotel and Casino Resort. If only I had the funds to continue this lifestyle long term.


Fred playing the system....badly



The fountains out front of the Bellagio are Freakin' Awesome

So we've visited Ceasars Palace, Treasure Island, Circus Circus, NY NY, Luxor, Cosmopolitan, Excalibur and MGM. We have contributed to the profits in all of these establishments. But the Bellagio was by far the best, a better class of gambler here.



Fred out on the Strip

We spent some time chillin' round the pool today, It was nice to feel the warmth of the sun on my bear back after the cold winds of New York and Chicago. The humans have been out and bought some summer clothes ready for the Californian sunshine. We say goodbye to Sin City tomorrow morning and head back to '66 for the final part of our epic road trip, just 367 miles to Santa Monica Beach, the forecast in L.A for the next few days is hot,hot,hot. Bears love sunshine.

Fred is in the Windy City

Hello Chicago.
After a close call catching our flight from JFK last night we finally arrived in Chicago Town. Friday night traffic out of Manhatten meant we made our flight with 10 minutes to spare.
The Congress Plaza Hotel is trying to charge 10 bucks a day to use their wi-fi. Fred doesnt pay to blog, so we're all sat in the diner next door where the waitress was happy to provide the password for theirs. Happy connected Bear.
Other than wi-fi issues the hotel is very grand. Large rooms and a bed big enough for a dozen friendly bears.

Heres a final pic from NYC, posing outside Madison Square Garden on the steps of the largest Post Office I've ever seen.

Gotta go now, much exploring to be done.
