Vegas Trip in Feb 2012; what are must sees & dos

My husband and I are going to Vegas in February. We haven't been there in 40 years so things have certainly changed. We are planning to see O Circ de Soleil (sp) and one other show like Vegas! The Show, to give us some Vegas flavor. We're not so much into gambling but would like to see the really fantastic sights. Also interested in reasonably priced shows and free things to do too. Also, we were wondering what one needs to wear to the evening shows and casinos. Any help and advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

We liked: Hoover Dam, hiking Red Rock Canyon, Atomic Testing Museum, Springs Preserve, car museum, Mandalay Bay aquarium, seeing the lions fed at the MGM Grand, Dolphin Habitat, back stage tour of Jubliee at Bally's, seeing the Bellagio fountains from the top of the Eiffel Tower.

www.cheapovegas.com has great reviews of all things Vegas: hotels, casinos, restaurants, shows, etc.

You can literally wear whatever you want to shows these days. Sure, you may see people in evening attire, and you will also see people in jeans and t-shirts. Vegas has gone VERY casual in the last few years...

Thanks ChristieP and Abram. This gives me a good start. One other thing...we're staying in a condo and will have our car. Can we drive to casinos/shows or is the parking expensive and hard to find?
