Day 10 Buget Update

Today we spent 18 dollars on food, 180 dollars on lodging, no money on the car, 20 dollars on insurance, no money on fuel, 200 dollars at the hospital, and 310 dollars on the laundry and the helicopter ride. So we ended our trip with 480.03 dollars.

We went on the helicopter and flew down in the Grand Canyon. We ate lunch and had the bottle of champagne in the air while we were flying over Arizona. The view was outstanding and we went so close to the river you could touch it with your hands. We were flying over our hotel and the man fling the helicopter told us we could sky dive from the helicopter to the hotel. Jake and I got our parachutes and jumped out of the plane we were doing flips and stunts until we reached the drop zone where we had to pull our parachutes. We landed in the Pool and swam for a bit. We are going to do laundry today because we got our cloths got wet. We arrived in the hotel and put our cloths in for the laundry service so we didn't have to wait for them to finish. Jake and I got dressed into our tuxedos and left the hotel to go to the casino royal that was next to our hotel. We bought in with 200 dollars and me and Jake split the money. We went to different tables but had no luck and lost all of our money. Tomorrow we are having a job interview with Nike and hopefully we will get in. I can't tell you if we did because our ten day road trip has come to an end.
