US-93 from Twin Falls to Las Vegas

The trickiest drive decision has to be made at early morning in Twin Falls, Idaho with inches of snow on the road. Shall I take I-15 to go south (with additional 2 hours) or test my luck to go straight south in snowy roads. One lucky thing was I end up following snow removal truck till Idaho-Nevada border (although had to go slow but safe enough :)) Entire drive started with snowy roads ended at sunny arrival at Las Vegas.

Honestly don’t know whether this is good or bad but we got the room at Venetian though we originally booked at Palazzo. It was a good forcing function to show the kids the Casino & Gondola ๐Ÿ™‚

And stopped by NYNY for roller coaster after AYCE sushi – One boy was happy the other one was sad because of his height..
