If we see this one for dream, no be 7 days deliverance in MFM prayer city remain so?

We stayed the longest at Omega Mart than other places we visited. So, apologies as I dump all these Omega Mart pictures here.

Ride on we are not complaining

Your camera quality is top notch

Sanchez01:
Next up: The Ling Hotel & Casino. This hotel had a high roller and as such, we wanted to have the experience. The pillar marked where I parked. I got lost trying to find the exit for nearly thirty minutes until we figured it out.

First frame: Pillar to mark parked spot
Second: A cross section of Ling's Casino.
Third: Outside of the hotel.
Fourth: High Roller ticket pricing.

My spectacles will prolly fly off if I board a roller coaster

Sanchez01:
The scary thing about the High Roller is that it doesn't totally stop for people to get off or board. You have to hop on with the instruction of the staff around and then the pod closes while the next batch of folks get on.

If you have rushed Danfo in Lagos, this shouldn't be a problem. We have perfected the art of jumping down from the bus while it is still in motion.

Forced into a chocolate store against my will.

Naptu2, see chocolate!

Sanchez01:
Tried a Vegas Buffet and it wasn't bad at all.

Spaghetti, shrimp and plantain? Abi wetin I dey see so?

Sanchez01:
Leaving after day 5

5 days of fun...
🥺
Nigeria will not kill somebody. Living in Lagos and fun does not feature regularly in the same sentence

Sanchez01:

I spent a total of $2,100.

1. $1,006.82 on hotel for 4 nights
2. Roughly $280 on gas both on the road and in Vegas.
3. $120 in tips (I made a grave mistake of tipping valets $10 every time when it should be between $2-$5. I'll rant about this in my diary.
4. The rest on buffet and tickets to access those places in the pictures.

Quite cheap, I dare say.

You took the advice that I gave you at the beginning of your relocation thread about seeing America through road-trips since SLC is a modest drive from many great places—I’m so thrilled! I’m happy you enjoyed Vegas and I laughed so when I saw how much you enjoyed Area 15. All men, even guys who say they hate Vegas, walk into Area 15 and lose themselves immediately as it’s so much to see and experience. Seems you guys enjoyed your trip and what makes me happy is that as a Nigerian, you’re getting out to see, learn, and experience instead of complaining about boredom and everything else. It’s hard for some outsiders to fathom but this is a great country and you’re learning and experience America the way it should be learned and experienced. I’m so happy to read about your experiences and can’t wait to see where your next road trip takes you.

I did take it! Oh, I love Area 15 and I must confess, it was the one place that made the whole trip fascinating. Bulk of the Strip was super busy and the smell of hemp and cigarette put me off. Area 15 was just too immersive and fun. It's a disservice to self to be in the US as an immigrant and not experience America the way it should be experienced. I'd definitely be visiting Las Vegas at some point again. There's no doubt this is the first road trip of many. My next vacation destination will likely be Hawaii but it certainly wouldn't be a road trip (it is nearly 3,000 miles from SLC).

What are some other cities you'd recommend for a JJC? I just might have another before Hawaii

Why does the food look like ruminant food? So much leaves

That's Omega Mart at Area 15. They are all plastic

There's no amount of money in the world that can motivate me to go on a roller coaster. Even the high roller became a nightmare at its peak in the sky. It was just too scary.

You're so on point!

Correct! Plus octopus

It was cheap, to be candid and two major reasons why this is so is because I booked the hotel about 2 months ahead and then baby girl confidently packed jollof rice and Afang Soup + garri. Else, A week to the date, a room would cost nothing than $331 per night and then eating out would have spiked the quoted amount.

Sanchez01:

Ishi, please...

It is true na.

Sanchez01:

Correct! Plus octopus

So they have plantains in the abroad? Like you can walk into a shop and request for plantains?

Octopus is calamari?

I actually thought you were joking when you told me, so you can imagine my suprise to find out aunty even added jollof rice to the mix. Typical Nigerian woman. She reminds me of me

This is very cool

This is after driving for 2 hours 48 minutes+ drive. It was an extremely hot day and I ended up burning more gas than usual, no thanks to the AC. The road was almost free from Richfield forward. Had my first gas stop there. Although, my tank was half full, it was important to take a leak and top up to avoid stories that touch the heart.

u get better road still dey complain of fuel. Hmmm, one man's poison is another man's food.

Sanchez01:
Second gas stop: Arizona. Arizona is hot mehn! Before we could refill, use the restroom and get back to the car, it was burning as hell.

the heat is a child's play to sokoto or Kano heat.

👍

that looks like the Eiffel tower 🗼🗼🗼?

Sanchez01:
From the hotel, one can easily see Area 15 but have no clue what goes on there.

Cool trip

Sanchez01:
Area 15 is home to Las Vegas sci-fi-ish themed, immersive experiences. I must confess, I have never seen anything so immersive, fascinating and fun as this before.

all this is just like a fragrance of paradise. It clearly stated that the smallest paradise is like the earth and everything in it. Just imagine. And you can make things happen there just using the mind. Let's all works towards the bigger price. Earth is temporary, heaven is permanent and free from suffering.

thanks for sharing your pictures, narations and experience.

very good experience you have. one day, maybe.
