#196 SEMA Day 1

5:38 AM

We woke up this morning to the sounds of cows mooing, to find that the area below our hotel room windows is the pasture for the bull riding show next door at the casino. Great. Although really does make you feel like you're out in the country right?

We woke up early to go and exchange our vehicles for a Jeep Cherokee--Stephen is convinced we will go off roading in it. We'll see.

After riding around the block desperately trying to find a parking space that wasn't $20 parking and within reasonable walking distance to the Convention Center, we decided I'd drop of Stephen so he wouldn't miss anything, and I'd figure out what the best place was. I finally decided the monorail was going to be my best friend. I'd drive Stephen to the Convention Center every morning, go park at Harrah's free parking garage, and then take the monorail to the Center.

Needless to say, finding my way around this city is proving to be difficult at times, but after another time or two I'm going to be a Vegas expert driver. Future cabby here I come!

We saw lots of cool cars, more than I probably care to see at one time, but Stephen had a great day taking everything in.

We tried to find somewhere to eat that had great reviews, so we found ourselves chomping on barbeque at Ellis Island Casino. It's off the strip, and to say this place is small and janky is an understatement, but the barbeque. Well it was incredible. And we were both incredibly stuffed.
