Las Vegas 16-28

I had been winning and losing money and time.
Gosh, what am I doing here. All I do is drinking and betting money from table to table. Whatta life.
Moved from the hotel to my friend's nice and beautiful house in the suberb area.
Thanks, Koji and Kana!

Went to Point Loma, San Diego for fishing on a ship. It was a big trip for me, changing my crazy gambling mind to a new feeling that is so healthy. Got new cool friends and everything was cool.
Caught yellow tail, bonita and stupid looking fish that I don't know the name.

Stayed a night in the car parked in front of the Coronado hotel that costs 275 dollars par night, then another night in our friend's Peruvian parents house in Anaheim, Cali.

The next day, very early in the morning we left for Las Vegas by our car, Ford Econoline.

Yeah, back to work, having a big dream that I would be making 2.8 million dollars by the wheel of fortune slot machine.

A few days of gambling, no wins, no loses.

Then Kana, Koji and I went to my best old friend, J's parents house in California to spend the Christmas days. It was wonderful. Especially it was very first time for me to see Mika-san, even I had seen her picture so often in Japan from J. I have never experienced the Christmas time like that in any places in the world, I guess.
I felt so called family love that I have long forgotten, since I lost my daddy long time ago. I kind of felt that I was losing something very important for spending a human's life, for being as a warm hearted human, it is so important to have a leading light to live for one's future, which is difficult to describe in words, but, anyways, thanks millions to you all.
I am seeing a lot of things and found that America is quite a nice place to live in. Lots of people still think opposit though.

Back in Las Vegas after a nice visit to my friend's parent's house, I got back to casino.
The last day was in Flamingo hotel casino. I lost a lot. then I finally have to leave this place. Then Kana and Koji came to pick me up at the Flamingo, then went to Terrible's casino.
I was too drunk to play more, stayed in the van and left the engine run. A cop came and questioned me what was going on here. All I said was "Please let me sleep. I am drunk and sleepy. This is my friend's van. He will be back soon. "
Luckily the cop did not really care about nothing. Just let me go back to sleep. What a nice cop.

The day I was going to leave, I found my ticket was for the yesterday's flight. Called up the United Air office. It was so easy to change the flight. I got my seat for no extra money.
