Oops. I'm always a day late... Post a new one so that I know when you'll be in Vegas. It'll give me a reason to take a few days off.

Go to the Mandalay Bay Hotel. They have a Bar on the last floor of the building. The Bar is called “The Misc” (not sure so sure). Anyway they let you go up to the bar for free and you will have the best view of the strip. Make sure you go when is dark (better view). Some people don’t know and they end up going to the top of the stratosphere hotel but is not free.

Have fun.

Just post your room number on the forum, we'll be there and party hard.

I thought you were one of the already confirmed trouble makers and memory makers. And im not stupid enough to tell anyone what room. At this stage we are trying to get our room upgraded to a marriage package but our travel agent is now making it hard for us. We really want to get married on top of the eiffel tower

Less than 4 weeks, changed my drive car for the trip from LA to Vegas, couldnt see us cruising into Vegas possibly in a hyundai, so rebooked a convertable mustang i think this will set the seen for us a bit better. Deb wants a mustang to keep but this is as close as she'll get for a while.

Good call Jules. It will make the drive much more enjoyable. The weather should be great that time of year, LA & Vegas.

I just went on a short Helicopter ride myself last week for the heck of it. I forgot how incredible of a view you get from flying in one of them.

Ordered the new camera 2 days ago, really hoping it gets here in time for the trip, ive ordered a panasonic tz7 or otherwise known in north america as the zs3. Oredered from a online company in hongkong paying $200 less than retail here at the moment, and it comes with a extra battery a 16gb card screen protector and case. What it doesnt come with is a genuine panasonic warranty, but instead a 12 month warranty door to door through them. Has anyone dealt with citionline? Also anyone know of good but cheap suit store and jewlery store either near hollywood or anahiem, ive got to get my wedding suit and my wedding band, and im hoping it is cheaper over there.

Jules, check with a jeweller over here - you may be able to purchase it tax exempt, providing you take it overseas with you - did this with our wedding rings (many years ago) - give it a go
