Only two weeks to go – and its killing me! Thought I would share my trip itinerary and ask for any comments/advice. This is our third trip since 2002.
One of my significant planning considerations is that for five of our days DH is in a class starting at 8:00 am til 3ish.
Day 1 (Thurs)– Arrive LAS 2ish from the east coast – so a long day. We only plan to rent a car one day for a side trip. This will be our first stay at the Aladdin. We are staying 8 nights and I decided to bite the bullet and reserve a Resort room rather than hope for the $20 trick.
The only plan for this night is to be at Red Square by 5pm for a place at the bar. We will christen the machines of course. And, most important, get our bets placed for football.
I don’t have dinner plans for this day yet??
Day 2 (Fri)– Commanders Palace for lunch
6:30 showing of Ka, seats 202 FF 1&2
Blue Agave for dinner with POV coupon – I’m thinking a cab is the best way to go?
I’ve never played Craps in a casino before. Today is the day!
Day 3 (Sat)– Lunch at Mon Ami Gabi – hopefully outside to catch the fountains. If the weather isn’t cooperative then I’ll have to come up with a plan B.
7:30 Vinnie Favorito at O’Sheas (w/241)
I don’t have dinner plans this day either. Does Sin City Brewery have TVs to catch the games?
Day 4 (Sat)– Heavy duty gambling day.
Lunch at Giorgio Caffe with Restaurant.com coupon
Dinner at Rosemary’s also with Restaurant.com coupon
Day 5 (Mon)– Shopping – maybe the Outlet mall but probably Desert Passage
Gambling – I have a few Free Play coupons. I have also never played Pai
Gow. I really want to give it a shot. Hopefully Monday will be a little slower in the casino. I also hope Aladdin table limits are more accommodating on Monday, otherwise I may have to take a walk somewhere else.
Dinner at Okada Sushi bar
7:30 Gordie Brown at the Venetian
Day 6 (Tues)– Spa in the morning. I usually go for a massage and facial. This time I am going for a body wrap and massage. I’ve never had the body wrap before – should be interesting.
Fab Four with free tickets
Dinner at Commander’s Palace w Restaurant.com coupon
Day 7 (Wed)– 2 pm showing of Menopause (I’ll be solo on this one). I'm thinking I can get tickets at the box office before the show?
Dinner at Andre’s with Restaurant.com coupon – I’m hoping to do the
Tasting menu, when I made the reservation I was told it should be no problem having the Tasting menu and making an 8 pm show - hmmm
La Femme – 8:00 show
Day 8 (Thurs)– Lunch at Aladdin Buffet – I just learned that as of Oct 25 it is back at its original location and hopefully living up to its past reputation. Have a freebie for this.
Rent a car and go to Red Rock Canyon – We should have about 4 hours
here I’m hoping.
Return to spend the evening downtown. We’ve never seen FSE. I want
to check out the Plaza because of its location it seems like it would have
a pretty cool view of the canopy. Dinner is planned at Roberta’s with a
POV coupon.
Day 9 – Depart 9:00 am flight
