Aren't we a busy traveller these days.

;)

Have fun...never been to Vegas myself, but will get there.

You looking after the little guy while she is in the conference or have you left him with grandparents?

The car museum at the Imperial Palace is always good for spending a couple of hours.  Last time I went to that museum was 94, easy 2 hours walking around

Open daily from
9:30a.m. to 9:30p.m.

Treasure Island has the best video game arcade on the strip, I remember playing a life size ridge racer game where I sat in a real mazda Miata. Everything worked on it too in cluding steering input, pedals and shifter. I had a friend in the passenger seat playing with the a/c, radio and every switch he could get his little piddles on! :D

Papa flew out to watch the little guy so its party time for us..>  

Because I'm a glutton for punishment I'll even admit to seeing Celine Dion last night.  Not a bad show but disproportionately  attended by women and euros.  

I need to restore order to my world by doing something less effeminate .  Maybe I'll go rent a Ferrari or something.
 
Looking forward to the Marlin tournament in November.

Why aren't you at the craps tables?
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Craps?  Don't know much about the game..  I'll probably give give BlackJack a go in a bit.  I do plenty of Poker nights but am not wild about giving it a go here.

The car museum looks pretty cool.  Anyone ever try the indoor skydiving thing? Is it worth the trip or a waste of time?  Any other cool things to do?

Check out the Magic Motion theaters if they're still there. The roller coaster one will have you gripping the hand rail gauranteed!
