I love Vegas its one of my favourite places to go. Where are you staying?

Things to do are

see the Volcano outside the Mirage
See the pirate show outside Treasure Island
Freemont Street Experience - different light show every hour from about 9pm, the Rat Pack one and the one with the Who are fantastic.
Gondola ride at the Venetia - this is really good. We stayed here on our last trip and loved the hotel
The dancing fountains outside the Bellagio

These are all free and very good.

Also go on ticketmastre and see if there are any shows or acts on that you might want to see.

Have fun

Am staying at Imperial Palace.....was a good price for a hotel on central strip and couldnt afford Ceasers Palace etc (unfortunately!!)

Hubby looking forward to gambling but I guess I'll spend all his money in shops before he gets the chance to blow it:D:D
