Pahrump Winery

The second part of the helicopter tour went the other direction out to the Parhrump Winery. There we had a short wine-tasting lesson followed by dinner. I ordered the steak, medium rare, and they brought it pretty much still mooing. I sent it back, and 10 minutes later it came back still way blue. Sent it back again, this time it came back a couple of minutes later, quite well done, tough and obviously microwaved. By this time most of the other people in our group were finishing their meals, and I wasn't paying for it, so I didn't bother complaining, although I should have.

The flight back was interesting - helicopter rides through the mountains in the dark are kind of scary. Flying down the Las Vegas strip at night was pretty cool though.
