Day 12 | August 24th

Today was all about getting our laundry done. We were all down to our last pair of underwear and socks as the last two hotels did not have laundry facilities and when I did try hand washing the clothes in San Diego the clothes just would not dry.

So, after breakfast our first stop was a laundromat in the suburbs only 3 miles from the strip. We got all our clothes washed and dried but we had to hang out in the laundromat for a couple of hours while the machines did there work.

One upside was a pretty good shopping mall across the road with Macy's and Old Navy among many other stores.

After getting the washing done we headed just down the road to the indoor gun range for Scott to have a go at shooting some big guns that we don't have at home. But it was really hot and the queue was 1.5 - 2 hours long so he decided to try again on Monday when we are back in Las Vegas.

So, instead of driving the 30-40 minutes out to the outlet stores in Primm we decided to go back to the shopping mall by the laundromat for a look. Especially as it was air conditioned and it was just too hot to do anything outside....even the pool at the hotel didn't have any shelter and was too hot during the day. I was lucky enough to get a great pair of shoes and dress at Macy's and a couple of things at Old Navy.

By the time we headed back to the hotel it was 5.30pm so when we got back Ashleigh quickly changed into her togs and we took her to the pool for a swim before dinner.

We ate at the hotel again tonight as we didn't want to be too late and really didn't know where else to go.

Another day done.
