Will you two stop acting like 3rd graders please? (mike&doug)



We just got back. Hoover Dam is cool to see. Maybe trek out to the Grand Canyon too. Lots of stupid tourist stuff to do. See the dancing waters in front of the Bellagio, the pirate show in front of Treasure Island. They run ever half hour or something.

We saw a number of good shows. Le Rev (IIRC) at the Wynn - kind of Cirque du Soleil in/over water. Blue Man Group at the Venetian and Penn&Teller at Rio - but I like stupid stuff like that. Also saw Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian. Very good if you like that kind of thing. Look for places around the strip called “Half Price Tickets” – you can get tickets for shows that day, maybe the next day, cheaper than box office, but you have to stand in line.

We ate real well - $150+ dinners not out of the norm. There is a steakhouse called Joes, it is at Caesar’s. Really good, on par with anything in NYC. At the Ventian there are 2, an Asian restaurant called Tao that is really good. And a Mexican place that was good too. Both places we ran up $100+ bills for two of us. We don’t gamble so we spent $$ on food! Also, the Irish Pub in NY NY is pretty good too, we had a great lunch there.

I’m sure you can eat & drink cheap there, we just chose not to.

If I think of anything else I’ll report back.
