Anyone been to Vegas?

Off to Vegas for a friends 30th in feb and just wondered if anyone had been, have they got any pointers/recommendations/advice etc?

cheers

i went on my brothers stag weekend.stayed at the circus circus.cracking hotel if your into circus sort of things.loads to do and to see.try and go in to as many hotels as you can,there's loads going on in each hotel.i'd recommend the vanetian, cesears palace(awesome)good for shopping.what about the local strip joints?try cheetahs which is about a mile off the main drag.superb!!look here http://www.cheetahsnv.com/ really friendly staff and you don't get pressured in to doing anything you don't wish to do. one word of warning though.even though it is quite safe in vegas,try not to venture to far off the main area's in the evenings.there's quite a few roads veering off the main drag and they are not that well lit and it's easily to become a target like i was.nothing serious just a bit of verbal.anyway have a great time and be safe.

as for gambling……i lost…           ?500                  :dontknow:

Spent 3 days there over New Year 2000/2001 while on a long grand tour of Nevada, Arizona, Utah and California…..TOTALLY OUT OF THIS WORLD !!!!!! Take a ride in a Gondola in Little Venice….watch the Pirate ships fight and sink at The Mirage…..go up the tower….cruise the strip at night in a soft-top with the top down, among the HUGE limos (14 door Hummer was our fav !!)
You got to see it to believe it…..

….and we escaped with $50 PROFIT !!

HAVE FUN

I went there with my mum and dad and sister on my dads 50th and we stayed in the mirage hotel in the palar suit that takes up one hole floor of the hotel! its the biggest room hee hee!! nly stayed there 3 days but it was fantastic and it has to be the best place i have ever been!

visit cesears palace, the pirate ship place aladins cave hotel,watch the bit volcano outside the mirage and the cool fountin display outside the bilagio hotel not far from the Mirage!

Great food and arcades were ever you go and the atmasfier is amazing!

oh and if u stay in the mirage hotel like i did, u can visit the white Tigers and the dolphins whenever you want

A******** its the best holiday i have ever been on
