Hoover Dam

 Andy has been hanging out for seeing this place ever since seeing a programme about it on the Discovery channel. They are in the midst of building a new freeway to bypass the dam - man is that a feat of engineering in itself let alone the dam!
 We did an ever so sneaky stop and change of driver here so that Andy could take the pics and we could avoid the parking charges as we didn't really want to stop and do the tours.
 Looking down the dam and you still can't even see the bottom!
 Over the other side into Lake Mead and you can see how much the water level has dropped over the summer.
