Have found a Mad Max meets Tate Modern holiday!

Seeing as I am now bored with Vegas, I was delighted to stumble my way randomly to learn about Burning Man.

WOW - this would fill even my craving for visual stimuli for sure and be very inspiring. Imagine the blog and pics after attending this event.

• Write up at http://www.whatsonwhen.com/events/~11937.jml
• Photos to give an idea of the venue overall at http://www.geocities.com/shioshya/brc03/thumbs.htm taken by a pole vaulter!
• Brilliant photos of people and stuff at http://www.ideamatic.com/burning/2001/photos.html - the panty camp made me laugh, so did the man with his head in the donkey's ass and I love the close up of the painted lady
• Hope they had Factor 25 on those pink bits - http://strangetwist.com/

Excerpt "Participation only and no spectators... People get creative, making their own themed camps, wacky vehicles and crazy outfits... An average day consists of wandering around the streets, popping into the odd free bar, henna stand, cinema or freak show. Every few minutes a bizarre vehicle will pass by - such as a Viking long boat on wheels, full of Vikings of course, a flying carpet or a float with a jazz band on it."

The event is Burning Man and I have to do this one day before I become all sensible with a family and a pick up.
