We stayed at the Avi Resort & Casino on the 20th, 23rd, and 24th of February. It is just south of Laughlin, Nevada, and is on the Mohave Indian reservation. It is a nice, clean, place, and the rooms are nice and cheap. I think that we enjoyed the place and had a good time.
The Avi sits out in the middle of nowhere and takes about 15 minutes to get to from Laughlin.
Laughlin sits on the Colorado River about 75 miles south southeast from Las Vegas. It is across the Colorado River from Bullhead City, Arizona, which is to the east. It is a nice place and has lots of casinos. It is not as big as Las Vegas which a lot of people find inviting. Southern Nevada, particularly the area from Las Vegas to Laughlin, has had a lot of rain from the a system from the tropics the last few weeks. When we came into Laughlin the first night we found a lot of mud, gravel, and on the roads, along with standing water. That was because of the almost torrentiol rainfall they have been having here.
They say that this has been a 1000 year flood, meaning that they only have a rain like this every thousand years. There was a lot of standing water on the road as we came into the Avi and we were dodging it. The parking lot had a fine grit on it and I can say that it wasn’t from the desert. We had had a nice trip to Laughlin and it is fun to get away from work.
