I'd be interested in the Hoover dam tour, but not the Grand Canyon.

That fake celeb bus tour sounds good, as does the helicopter ride.

From experience it's no cheaper to book before you get there, and easier to book once you are there (you can often just go down to the front desk to make a booking).

Sorry, ladies, I'm still on that contract in Austin and living out of hotels. Last week's hotel did not have free internet and after spending 11 plus hours a day on the computer, I didn't really miss it, lol.

Just earning money to spend Smile

I forgot if I already mentioned this but buy some Yankee dollars in Australia, and take them with you on the plane, so that you've got enough money when you get to the airport in America for phone calls, snacks and a taxi.

Well I probably won't post again before you go so good luck and I'll see you there.

We haven't talked about how we will meet up. So ... how will we?

I can't even remember the name of your Las Vegas hotel. We will be in the Flamingo.

I'll post my US mobile number here when I get one. Maybe you could call me on that or try calling the hotel?
