We hit Salt Lake City after an Icelandic Air flight that was banannas with Dan getting a crazy art wall going and me getting the air hostess to wear a gimp mask..

We got the Rolls Royce boys reunited with their grille. We then went on to leave the airport with the pack and got about 200 yds and then the fuel pump dies…

‘We get a final catch up with Martine now that the Gumball is over and she is about to fly home to the UK.

So… How was Vegas?

Vegas was just fantastic! It’s such an amazing place, there’s nowhere quite like it, is there? We got to the Hard Rock hotel which was completely taken over by Gumball. Tony Hawk had a skate ramp set to in the car park and treated everyone to some astonishing moves! We then went to the Snoop gig – he was on for an hour and we all agreed that was the real highlight of our 8 days on the Gumball. We all had a wild night, gambling and partying, got virtually no sleep at all and then had to drive through death valley to get to LA for the final victory parade. Death valley was so hot, we totally roasted. Some cars actually broke down from over heating, especially since we drove through one area that was 300 m below sea level.

Gumball Rally – days 7/8 (THE END)

The flight to SLC was LONG. We stopped in Sapporo, Japan and Anchorage, Alaska to refuel for a total flight time of 20 hours. Thankfully, all of the usually-drunk Euro dudes slept most of the way. Evidently, their one night in Bangkok was more than they could handle. We rolled into our SLC hotel and made a plan to hit one of the local parks while the rest of the Gumballers got dolled up to go see the Mission Impossible 3 premiere. Im not sure how anybody thought that this was going to be a real Hollywood premiere since it was opening night and we were in Salt Lake City after all. It was more like a bunch of foreigners in tuxedos going to see a movie at the local theatre, but I wasnt about to burst their bubble. We happened to see them as they returned to the hotel and my wife asked how it was. One of them said it was more like a screening than a premiere! to which she responded (in her amazing sarcasm): you mean Tom Cruise, Katie and their new baby werent there to greet you? He walked away in bitter disdain, as our snide comments haven’t been going over well with this crew.
