1stGenAmerican:


😀😃😀😃
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.

coputa:
Vegas is the gamble city of the world, it is notorious for that.

Zealoy:
Abeg shey na the same brain God give this white people na him he give us so?

Gerrard59:


The day I was driven to Kyoto, I almost cried.

No be lie. Tears nearly comot for my eyes.

shegzhkn:

And why is that, Advancement??

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

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.

Ellasure:
thanks for sharing your pictures, narations and experience.

very good experience you have. one day, maybe.

Gerrard59:


It was so safe, the roads were good and well tarred, streetlights everywhere etc. The safety aspect is what really made me feel emotional because, you know say nothing go happen. Heck, you can even drive to the north of the country say Sapporo, and everything will be fine. Almost similar experience with OP but with differences in distance and activities performed.

Alusiizizi:


Where did you get the rental car? Hertz?

Ofemmanu1:


So you know Balewa?!

You go sabi Ekana Gowan and sisi pelebe.
Indomie generation go confused

Jakumo:


Minor point of correction Sanchez.

Area 51 is way the phuck out in the Nevada Desert and is NOT within the city, regardless of what is written on that wall. Workers in that fabled top secret base where UFO craft are stored typically take flights from 'Vegas Macarran Airport to Area 51 and Groom Lake which are again NOT in the city of Vegas.

Ishilove:

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

Octopus is calamari?

Ishilove:

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

Sanchez01:

Yes! A lot of the buffets in SLC here have plantains and they are bigger than the sheets we have in Nigeria. Calamari is squid.

Sanchez01:
This is after driving for 2 hours 48 minutes+ drive.

victorazy:


Get yourself electric car mehn!!!

Anyway, whats their unit price for fuel over there.

Sanchez01:
I hate to admit but visiting the 7 magic mountains was not necessary. I was disappointed because the whole thing looked like coloured, stacked balewas. Driving from Salt Lake City straight there was longer than driving straight to the hotel. The distance between both was about 35 minutes on a single. Vegas is an extremely hot city. EXTREMELY HOT!

Ishilove:

So that means you can have your normal dodo and palm oil beans abi?

I'm usually suspicious of any fruit or vegetable that is larger than normal. Are the plantains 💯 organic?

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

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

GboyegaD:


Vegas is cool at this period of the year you visited though. That said, it is less humid, so it is preferred to Houston hotness for me.

juman:
Nigeria is also very beautiful, but the country has been plagued by unserious leadership.
The new leadership should build a prosperous and safe country for us.

Yes we can.

hansomb:
