I got just got back from Vegas on Monday. We stayed at The Venetian. Very nice!
We went to the nightclub at Wynn. Didn't see any rooms there, but the casino and other stuff looked nice.
I wish we were going out to Vegas for the game.

I'm looking for less expensive shows... We've seen O before. Check out Bite at the Stratosphere, it has everything anyone could want; gymnastics, love story, singing, a villain, and it is topless at times (but tastefully done).
*The last part may just aid in getting the hubby to go willingly.*
p.s. I went with my wife and her sister and they both liked it, though this was the only Vegas show they had ever seen.

For anybody going out on Thursday you can go to a Jessica Simpson concert at the Palms.  Or better yet,maybe she will be out partying after her concert and people can party with her.

nobody is at Ceasars? The last time I was out there we stayed at Ceasars and the scenery is wonderful, they have the Pussycat Dolls bar and casino area not to mention Rave where Christina Aguilera had her concert after party. |

Im not going but i lived in Vegas for 3 years and a great place to stay and it doesn't cost alot is the Gold Coast. It has a shuttle that runs every half hour to the Barbary Coast on the Strip. Its right next to the Rio. |
Live for yourself, your family, your friends then your job!!!

If anyone is a fan of country music Toby Keith has a great bar inside Harrah's. No cover and FANTASTIC live music. However you want to drink heavy before you get there. Drinks are outrageoues ( Mixed drink in served in a quart Mason jar was $27) FYI - cheapest drinks we found on the strip were at Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville- between Flamingo and Imperial Palace. Good food too.

i had heard that about Toby Keith's (fun and price). but i would agree with the Jimmy Buffet comment. i visited a friend of mine who works at the Palms and we both hung out at Buffet's on his day off. great place to sit.
