06:30 AM Wyndham Garden Bakersfield
We woke up early in the morning to proceed to our next destination, Las Vegas. We were listening to the morning news when we realised that there was a terrible fog, that was expected to disperse at noon time. We had no choice but to stay indoors until the fog disperse. We had a simple breakfast which consist of our leftover Blueberry juice from Starbucks and Zesty Nachos from Denny’s.

Finally arrived at the hotel lobby. We were lost within the hotel itself! We parked our own car instead of approaching the valet parking. From the car park, we were required to go down and walk through the shopping area of the hotel, go through the Casino to the escalators down to the hotel lobby. It was a long and tiring walk, with all our huge and heavy luggage.
19:45 PM Our Room
I love their bedsheets!
The gigantic bathroom
Free Champagne that came with our room.
The hotel room does not has a fridge. So…. JR’s creation – ice bath! The bottle of Champagne was buried under the pile of ice.
