    Hello Everyone,

    My name is Ryan ...

    Heading To Vegas June 13,14,15, and coming home on the 16th. My longest trip to date.

    I'll be turning 24 on Friday ... Taking the trip to celebrate my BDAY. Also, in celebration of 3 years with my GF. (June 29th).

    I signed up ... Mainly to chit-chat with everyone, and read up and learn things I might've not known in my 5 previous to Vegas.

    Glad to be apart of the community.

    Newbie 1st time post

    Hello everyone! I've been to Las Vegas twice, but was just passing through. I'm looking for a good place to stay, 2 night in mid July with my Daughters. It's part of a return trip from LA. Daughters are 16 & 18 so I don't plan on Gambling, just a little post vacation relaxing.

    Any and all ideas welcomed. Planning on booking a hotel this week.

    later . . .

    Welcome cutty....

    As you have your daughters, and probably like to shop, I would definitely consider staying mid-strip as that leaves you close to some of the best shopping.

    Although, not too fond of the Flamingo itself, I do love their pool and their slide, so that might be some fun for you and your girls. I'd stay anywhere from Paris/ Bally's up to Treasure Island/ Palazzo! Hope you all have some fun!

    Hi

    Hi! I'm Jen. I've been to Vegas 3 times. The rest of my family are big Vegas lovers too, so most times we've met up with up to 15 other family members. What a great place for a family reunion!! :)

    In the past we've stayed at Westward HO.

    This year we are going in September meeting 18 other family and friends to tie the knot! Haven't picked the location yet, but I'm soooo excited. It will also be my longest trip in Vegas yet - 9 nights!! We're staying at the NY NY and I'm very excited about that because of all the great things I've heard about it.

    HI everyone,
    We are Patty and Doug from just outside St.Louis in the town of Pontoon Beach,Illinois.
    We don't travel to sin city as much as we like or used to but still try to get there at least 1-2 times a year for a total of about 15 days.
    We have stayed just about everywhere nice in the begining we stayed at the Rio,but got tired of renting a car so went back to the strip.
    We like the center strip area to stay as that puts us right in the middle of the action.
    We really used to like the suotes at Ballys as ballys was a nice place as it never seemed to cater to the people that feel the need to bring the little mouth breathers with them! LOL
    Our daily routine is almost the same ( we are old and set in oiur ways) Start the day about 9 or so with a quick breakfast then off to the pools for a little down time to replenish the system from the night b4 ( told ya we were old) then off to the carnival court as we use that as our base of operations during the day for our friends that are usually scattered all over town depending on where they like to stay.
    then off to either a nice dinner or show,we try to juggle them so that the nights we have show tickets we have a quick dinner then show and the nights we don't we do a nice dinner and then hit the lounges.
    We also try ot take in a few of the more adult venues on each trip as well.
    We were married in Las vegas 16 years ago and will always love Las vegas!
    LAs Vegas and our trips to Hedonism II and III in Jamaica take up most of our vacation time these days and the next trip home to Las vegas is going to be in the fall.:thumbsup:
    Doug and Patty

    Hi Everyone! :) My name is Ian and my DW is Laura.We have been to Vegas 4 times or so & just love it more every time. We are from Canada (Ottawa,Ontario) and plan to go to LV this coming November.We hope to see CHER but do not know yet if she will be performing on Nov.3rd,4th or 5th.......anyone heard anything ??? Her concert at Ceasars just lists her performing up to October :(. I'm also hoping to get a copy of "Las Vegas Advisor pocket of values" coupon book or American Casino book, or something similar..... any suggestions you could give me ? (I didn't want to buy one at the full price as it is so close to the end of the year and expires at the end of the year) Well, have fun everyone and hope to talk to you again soon. Ian & Laura

    Welcome Ian and Laura! :wave:

    Unfortunately Cher will not be performing on your dates in November :cry:, Elton is scheduled for that weekend.

    Make sure you keep an eye on the "Coupon Swap" forum for those coupon books or better yet you could post what you're looking for. As the year end gets closer there are usually people kind enough to share what they haven't used.

    Good luck!
