Last day in Vegas was uneventful.  However, I did not mention that we had two rooms and michelle's room smelled horrible because the sink and toilet kept backing up!  We called maintenence 4 times during the 4 days we were at The Luxor!  Actually, the last time the maintenence guy ca…

Another day of waking up early! We packed lunch and headed out to Red Rock for the drive and a little hiking. It was a nice warm day with a little breeze. When we decided to eat there was a picnic spot with some shade that was perfect. After Red Rock we headed down to the strip to mainly see the B…

I spent the weekend in Las Vegas. I left Redondo Beach at 2pm on Friday and stopped for McDonald's at 2:15. I hit some traffic on the way, of course, because it's LA plus the fact that I'm driving to Vegas on the popular weekend of 7/7/07. I took the 91 to the 15. It's very easy to get there. …

1.      THE BEST TIME TO VISIT It is easy to think of Las Vegas as being permanently hot as it is right in the middle of the Mojave Desert, but this is not the case. It does get very hot indeed in the summer months of July and August with maximums of around 40 degrees Ce…

After laying out in the pool all day sipping on some rum and soaking up the dry desert sun, we decided to get ready, go out to eat, and hit up the gambling scene on the Strip.  Apparently, it was College Night over at Goldie's (Aladdin), and we decided it would be fun to go.  So we stumbl…

What can I say.  Vegas is Vegas.  It's ridiculous and eccentric by any means.  It's a 4 hr drive from LA so we randomly head there from time to time.   Vegas is always a great time, but don't believe anything that 'happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.'   I more …

Come along with Joel Barish as he tours America’s most ultimate Sin City This week, I took a quick trip to Las Vegas with the intent of spending two full days doing some advance preparations for the DeafNation World Expo, scheduled to occur in July 2010. Las Vegas is well known to you and me …

This time around, I’m going to attend the second Travbuddy meet up held in Las Vegas. The organizers being Melanie (www.travbuddy.com/mellemel8), and Erin (www.travbuddy.com/poohspanggt). The sights around the strip are not easy to just go by, I found myself putting my head out the car window to …

So, Me and Lee were sitting in the bar at our hotel in LA talking about all sorts. This was definitely our last night in LA and we'd be heading back to El Centro in the morning. This was Tuesday night and we were flying home on Friday. There was six of us flying home from LAX and I'd heard someone …

I went to Vegas for the first time in 2006. I hated it. If I had my way, I would have never gone back, but, of course, circumstances arose and it was pretty much required. I learned, on my second time there, that Vegas is survivable even if you don’t love it...For more, please see: http://simplyw…

well we decided to do more than just drink and gamble on our last day in vegas. my bro doc had never been to vegas so we decided to walk the strip and go into every casino we could, and just generally see whatever looked interesting to him. small note here: DO NOT attempt this if you are wearing fl…

I'm not going to go into full detail, because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas :), but I will tell you a few tips... 1) Deinitely go to Tao.  Well worth the wait to get in, or if you get VIP then even better- esp. if you're a girl.  You skip the $30 cover! 2) Walk around the s…

Caesar's Palace was the most hilarious place I have ever been in.

We booked the flight and hotel!!!!  Its all seeming so real!!! We decided to stay at Excalibur!! Only a few more months to go!
