Lori told you all you need to know: go to www.lvol.com - to their discussion board. Everyone there really enjoys LV, and they love to talk about it in reports, too.

First, let me say...........
Your going to have a wonderful time in Vegas.. There's so much to do and see. We just went (for the first time) in October, and had a BALL!!! We stayed at the Luxor (BEAUTIFUL HOTEL). We did go to Treasure Island that's a nice hotel too... Be sure to see the #1 rated show in Vegas MYSTERE.. Awesome show!!! It's playing at Treasure Island.. Be sure to get tickets in advance.. It tends to sell out... We ordered our tickets maybe 3 weeks before we were going... Defintely worth the money... Also be sure to see the water show at Bellagio.. WONDERFUL!!! Go to the Paris hotel, and Venetian... BEAUTIFUL HOTELS!! Me and Hubby did the Gondola ride at the Venetian... Ride the Big Shot at the Stratosphere and Manhattan Express at NY NY.. (If your into thrill rides)....
Have fun

I was in Vegas this past September, I stayed at the Mirage and loved it. I have friends who have stayed at TI and they liked it, no complaints. Definitely check out the show Mystere at TI, get there atleast 1/2 before the show starts because there is a comedian that has fun with the crowd as they are coming in. There is a tram which connects TI to the the Mirage, great casino/hotel. It depends on what you like, there is soooo much to see. I personally did not care for the Venetian, MGM or Paris. Belaggio is beautiful..fountain show is nice but you'll wish it lasted longer. New York, New York - great upsidedown rollercoaster. Hard Rock Casino is a smaller casino, younger crowd, young dealers, good music, very relaxed atmosphere. I also liked Mandalay Bay. Like I said there are so many hotels to see. If you are looking for a excellent restaurant I suggest Hugo's Cellar in the Four Queens hotel downtown, I did not like downtown much at all, but the meal was exceptional. It's about a 10-15 min cab ride from the Strip. There is NO place like Vegas, bring a lot of money...I hope you enjoy it!!!

Hi Scott -
Just returned from a great stay at TI. We got a great rate on a Caribbean Suite. Had a great room overlooking the pool and south strip. I can't tell you how fabulous the view was. Everyone there was great. You will LOVE this hotel. Mystere IS fabulous. You may reserve tickets 90 days prior to arrival if a guest at the hotel. BTW, our bellman, Bob, told us that TI had been rated 4 diamonds by AAA. TI's "big sister" the Mirage, wasn't. So there you go. Have a ball, but gamble elsewhere. TI is stingy.

SCOTT
