Lake Tahoe
For the Labour Day long weekend, we went to Lake Tahoe. We rented out a cabin, and a couple cars, and left straight after work on Friday night. We didn't arrive at South Lake Tahoe until midnight.
The cabin was pretty damn nice, except that contruction was going on around it, so gas was cut off, thus no hot water was available. When we complained the next morning to the management, they upgraded us to a giant cabin nearby. The new place had 14 beds, a jacuzzi, cable tv, barbeque, games, the whole sh-bang. On saturday, some of us went on ATV tour, but I went hiking instead. It was damn tiring, without water. We went to Stateline that night to enjoy the buffett and the small casinos on the Nevada border. Penny slots all the way!
On sunday, we went kayaking in the Lake. Quite a few of us fell in, fortunately I was able to balance myself the whole time. It was refreshing. That night, we drove 2 hours north to Reno, Nevada, the biggest small city in the world. It's the old school version of Vegas. The place was a little disappointing overall, especially considering I got kicked out of one of the casinos there. So not gnarly, dude.
The next day, we rented a power boat and a tube and went crazy all over the lake. Some of us got bruised and cut and had our shorts ripped off from it. I didn't do the tubing since I can't even swim, but I drove the power boat around, which was pretty exhilarating. I posted photos some here.
