That is the "Encore" being built
Karen and Tom going up
And Coming down
OK I have to comment on this because I know Karen is going to. While going through the wax museum we were going to go through the haunted museum and Karen started to get scared. I did not know that she was this afraid and we all guilted her into staying with us. She made the comment "Allright but you have to go on the ride at the Stratosphere with me" Yeah OK whatever. She went through and she was scared to death but gutted through it and had fun. On the last day in Vegas we went up to the Stratosphere and I saw the ride after they had explained it to me. It is like a giant teeter totter and there is a little car on it. When it tips to one side you go backwards and when it tips to the other side you go frontwards. Sounds great right. Ok now picture this it is 108 stories up and when you go frontwards it hangs over the edge of the railing with nothing to stop you, oh but that is not it if you look closly at the next pictures it goes a quarter of the way off the track for those of you that do nto know I am deathly afraid of falling not afraid of heights or cliffs, I can hang on with the best of them nut for some reason I always think of a mechanical failure or something out of my control will fail. Well I hadone look of that thing and decided NO WAY!!!!! I of course got ribbed by Karen and Tom and my excuse was what happens if there is a power failure and they laughed at me even more. I had to take it the rest of the day. Well Karen and Tom did you happen to know that there was a power failure the day AFTER WE LEFT!!!!! Yup and people were stuck in elevators for hours. Laugh if you will. I aint gonna do it, Nope, None, Never!@!
Going back wards I believe this is when I went white and almost fainted
Tom and Karen in the front laughing and pointing at me
Going forward at a high rate of speed
Look at it hanging off>?!?!?!?!?!?
You guys are on crack! And I will have you know that the first night back I had a nightmare of two kids falling off that ride because they were not buckled in and trying to have it be more extreme

OH MY GOD uncle scott you went on that ride!!! I bet you will never go on another ride in your life. it looks like you had so muck fun in Las Vegas. Also is the Luxor a pyramid because I think that is the one our teacher told us about.
Love you,
Cassidy
No Cassidy, Uncle Scott DID NOT go on any of the rides with me and Uncle Tom. He made a promise and then refused to "man up"!!!
OK Scott - I am officially done with making fun of you.
good good times!
We had so much fun with both of you....time went so fast (as it always does) but it was an incredible bonus to spend part of our trip with you!
Love, Karen.
I do too leave comments!!!! The only blog entries I don't comment on are of parties with people I don't know.
Vegas looks great, and it certainly seems like you did a lot and had a lot of fun! It is too bad you whimped out on the rides when your cousin was brave enough to conquer her fears!!!
yeah...what she said!
Love, Karen.
p.s.
I guess I wasn't done.
