Las Vegas Vlog 2024 | Part 7 | Route 66 | Hoover Dam | Hell's Kitchen | Nomad | Black Bear Diner

[@LaLaAndPopPop]

Nothing better than a welcome back to Vegas butt beating! We had a couple days like that on our last trip. Bonuses hard to come by, and when they do they are super underwhelming! Looking forward to the next! Cheers! 🍻🍻

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yup it was just one of them days. There’s always at least one or two every trip. All part of the fun and games of Vegas! Thanks for watching

[@andrearea1333]

Ive had the static electricity thing happen to me in bed before too. Totally trippy. It usually happens when the air is too dry and you are sleeping in synthetic materials. Pajama and sheets 100% cotton only for me from now on.

[@roamingnewroutes]

Was very strange. I’ve had static shocks before but never seen sparks like that.

[@NoPlanDan24]

I was at the dam and lake last week it's soo cool lol

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes was a really nice way to break up the drive. Would like to do the Tour inside the dam one day

[@LifeofSmith1980]

All aboard! My favorite game. I think you might have been getting shocked by static electricity?

[@roamingnewroutes]

That’s what I thought I’ve just never seen the static actually cause sparks like this was. I always get shocked in Vegas cause of the carpets but this was next level.

[@Goucky75]

Fab vlog as ever! Braver than me walking the bridge at Hoover Dam. HK sounds like style over substance, that sticky toffee pudding though 🤤

[@roamingnewroutes]

Pudding was definitely the best part. I don’t usually like desserts but even I enjoyed that one. Yes the camera doesn’t really capture the drop, with that the wind and the trucks it’s sure is an interring walk out to the middle. Thanks for watching.

[@vix3469]

I had the electric thing last Nov in vegas 😅 but last week it was fine i was like look at this as we have separate beds on holiday why wouldn't you 😂

[@roamingnewroutes]

I always get static shocks in Vegas but this was next level. Can’t beat separate beds on holiday 😂

[@vix3469]

​@roamingnewroutes yeah definitely get shocks but crazy to see it in the bed ...and the way he snores we will be heading in that direction going forward, holiday or not 😂

[@stephennewby5060]

Been to that black bear diner in Kingsman....excellent breakfast

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes was a good breakfast and Kingman was a nice place to kill an hour.

[@stevecavey8481]

Interesting to see the hoover dam bypass road now that it’s built. Back in 2008 the only way through was over the dam. I remember looking at the construction of the half completed new road and thinking high high it was The electric shocks would have been nylon combined with dry air causing static every time you moved.😂😂😎. If you were wearing a watch or anything silver it would’ve made it 10 times worse.(Sparkies know best!😂😂😜🤠) King man looked a decent place. Love those old trains😍 Another great Vlog 😎

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes I always get shocked in Vegas cause of the carpets but never actually seen literal sparks because of it. Yes I remember the road over the dam, to be honest I thought that was the route we’d take so was surprised when we went over the bypass but gave the us the opportunity to do the walk. Thanks for watching

[@thevegasdawgs]

Back to Vegas! Hoover Dam is something Alex and I want to do at some point. She wants to rent a car and do all that fun stuff but I just can't miss a heater on the slots lol. Regal Riches is tough! Just terrible line hits and just drains tickets I find. Hell's Kitchen looked great but sucks you guys didn't have a good meal as it is expensive. We've been there a few times and always got the pre fix Wellington which was always fantastic in our personal experience. Tough day on the slots but we've all been there and hopefully that turns around for you two. I know the feeling and it blows but I get what you mean because you don't even get player points getting roasted so quick. Hopefully the next one you guys get it back 👊

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yer we enjoyed the walk over the dam, be good to do the tour inside one day. Yes never really had much luck on Regal Riches, always get drawn in by the wilds but don’t end up getting much out of it. Yes the food in HK was good just expected a bit more from it. Yer just one of them days on the slots, we all have them, just a part of the deal!

[@Janetwhite75]

The Hoover dam tour is decent you should do it next time😊 happy to see you back in Vegas , hopefully you will have some good luck in the upcoming vlogs 👀

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes it’s on our list for next time. It’s always good to be back in Sin City

[@chrismay6278]

Great vlog and honest reviews, one of which was ‘shocking’! I have been to Vegas many times, but amazed how expensive it has gone. We are going over in August, but will certainly be giving Hells Kitchen a swerve! Keep up the great vlogs. 👍

[@roamingnewroutes]

It has got very expensive, unfortunately the food often doesn’t meet the price tag. We still love it though, guess that’s why they keep increasing the prices. Enjoy your trip in August!

[@Vegasbacon]

Electric shocks cracked me up, I’ve booked a trip to the Hoover dam in October so looking forward to that. Shame about Hell’s Kitchen my next vlog has it and I really enjoyed it and the food was decent. However I did eat I. The pub last year and that was terrible, I think these celeb restaurants are really hit and miss. Great vlog again. Lee

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes I agree, we had his fish n chips and really enjoyed it, but HK gets real mixed reviews. I mean it’s good food but to me just gastro pub quality. Hoover dam was good I’d definitely like to do the tour and see inside and all the mechanical side. Thanks for watching

[@TipsyTofuTravels]

Did you get to the bottom of what those electric shocks were? Also that Route 66 Diner looked AMAZING - my kind of place, I will need to visit there on our next trip. When we went to the Hoover Dam I was terrified of going over that bridge as well. My husband walked the whole way but I couldn't manage it hahahaha!

[@roamingnewroutes]

No we didn’t I mean I’m guessing it was just static as I always get shocks in Vegas on carpets and touching metal objects but this was next level. Never seen such big sparks from static electricity. The diner and little town was great, a taste of the Route 66 Americana.

[@TipsyTofuTravels]

@@roamingnewroutes ME TOO! Literally toward the end of our last trip I was getting shocks everywhere I went and it started to get horrendous 😂

[@cheriemichelle7571]

Just in time! I just got caught up yesterday 😊

[@DWViking-c6n]

Hi. You keep mentioning and writing King”S”man. You’re thinking of the movie, the town is Kingman😎

[@DWViking-c6n]

Ahah. Watching further on and see you’ve got it right now👍🏻

[@roamingnewroutes]

I know haha I mentioned in the vlog it’s Kingman and not kingsman like the film but still kept doing it 😂 must be the British in me

[@DWViking-c6n]

It was a good movie!

[@andrearea1333]

That's a shame about Hells Kitchen. Ive only been to the HK in Lake Tahoe and it was sooo good. Ive enjoyed Ramsey Burger at Planet Hollywood a few times. That sticky Toffee Pudding is probably my favorite dessert ever though.

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes it was nice but not quite as I expected. Seems very commercialized in Vegas, no real service just turning tables as quick as they can. Not tried Ramsey Burger, his fish and chips are excellent though. I’m not a dessert fan but yes the sticky toffee was definitely the highlight of the meal at HK

[@sayhitobobby]

Russell ❤❤❤❤

[@elizabethmcewan3724]

I love your food reviews.with yours living in Dubai you get the best food ever I always feel so spoiled when I go to Dubai . I wouldn’t give big money in vegas as it’s always just average to me and am not picky . Hopefully your gambling gets better 🥰🥰🥰

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes we are spoilt here in Dubai with food. I think next trip we’re going stick to more causal places seem to get better bang for your buck.

[@Stevienotsowonder]

Really enjoyed this one, although the gambling looked poor. Was a nice transition from out of the city into Vegas. We had a poor meal at Hell Kitchen too. I find GR food is very over hyped.

[@roamingnewroutes]

Gambling and the food wasn’t great in this one but still had a nice time. The drive up from flagstaff to Vegas is actually a nice one plenty of stuff to do on the way which is nice

[@imzeus3865]

This past week, I did two sessions at Bellagio. What a bust. Crap bonuses when I was lucky to get one, no play for my money, and only one cocktail in my total four hours gambling there. I agree on Hell's Kitchen. Overpriced and over hyped. People love it just for the name and Gordon. Me, not so much. Another enjoyable vlog, sir! I hope the gambling improves in the next update. 👍

[@roamingnewroutes]

Yes getting drinks is nigh impossible in Bellagio. Yes very disappointed with HK. I mean food is good but nothing special, certainly not worth the price.

[@lesleyputnam8261]

Did you complain at the hotel about the 'shocking' ecperience?

[@lesleyputnam8261]

Sorry experience

[@roamingnewroutes]

Haha no we didn’t. Probably more my fault than theirs, I’m always getting static shots 😂

[@cheriemichelle7571]

Electric shock? That's hilarious. Why didn't you just hop in Emily's bed? 😂😂 I hate that you deleted the clip.

[@roamingnewroutes]

I’m so annoyed i deleted it as it was nothing I’d seen before. Giant blue sparks under the covers. She wouldn’t let me in, she thought it was me and didn’t want to get shocked by me 😂

[@EMP091]

Always getting electric shocks in Vegas 🥹 the Bellagio is the worst for it 🥴

[@roamingnewroutes]

Me and carpet don’t go well together 😂
