Escape from New York (back to Vegas.)

Otherwise known as out of the frying pan and into the fire. Here's a view of the Grand Canyon from Continental flight 668.
Below Dan and Jodi generously act as our guides to our first First Friday at Las Vegas. 1st Friday is where on the first Friday of each month, there is a gathering of artists to ply their trade and sell their wares. Visual arts abounded, but there was also spoken word, and even some breakdancin'.
We wandered into an antique shop (read: junk) that had some interesting artifacts nonetheless. Take the following chastity-like medieval torture / S&M structure that Pilar found:
I think it's basically an iron sculpture that isn't meant to be functional. Below Pilar faces off against a mounted gazelle.
Below is a video of some breakdancing. I'm not sure which was more impressive, the breakdancing, or the fact that they were doing it in 100F weather.
