That's pretty much the way I explained it to the wife.

Vegas is a place I honestly had no intention of ever going to. This experience is probably the only thing that would get me there as a destination. Would love to visit some of the National Parks out that way but going to be a whirlwind 48-72 hours or so which is the worst way to do Parks of those magnitude. Valley of Fire State Park will probably have to suffice on this trip.

if you're looking to get off Strip for a bit, but not into rocks, cacti and rattlesnakes.



Able Baker is the shit

There's always the Dam tour.

My Vegas-exhausted husband thanks you.

It's also attached to the Linq Promenade - which has a bunch of restaurants. Brooklyn Bowl is at the end of it, as is Kimmel's comedy club, and the High Roller Ferris wheel.

Do you live in DC or Vegas. First it was NYC. What city aren’t you an expert in that might make it easier for us to keep track.

Nashville.

I'm into cacti and rattlesnakes.

Here's a tip probably only helpful to people using (or going to) MSP: Sun Country Airlines doesn't take Amex but so far are the cheapest (including Southwest).

Hi,

Travelling from the UK for the Oct 27th & 28th shows.

Went against the Trip Advisor bad reviews and with the forum advice and booked four nights at The Linq.

Thanks for all the input !

[rosephile]

Hope Tuscany Suites is ok! Reviews seem decent and it's close.

i stayed there in 2019, the location is nearly perfect (about half a mile walk to the sphere if you go out the back door), the price was significantly better than the other big hotels all around it (ie caesars/paris/bellagio), and their basic room was newly updated and pretty large, relatively speaking. i was there in the middle of winter but it seems like the pool would be pretty awesome too when it's open.

Hey, I can fix it now, so I fixed it.

Just don't try to return any bad peaches

[rosephile]

Who tf tries to return fruit anyway? After it gets home, it's not worth another trip to the store.

Fruit's a gamble; I know that going in.
