Even planning a route from LA to Vegas worked a treat, start destination was LAX, end destination Luxor hotel. Simple as that :cool:

You needed a SatNav for that? It's only three roads! lol

did look remarkably simple when i scrolled through the route plan!!

to get the TTS voices onto the tomtom you need to connect it to a computer and copy the TTS folder over to the root of the tomtom.

Out of interest, what is the going rate for tipping for 99c margaritas? I think I tipped $2 for the 2 which is 100%.

Hi luci,

I would say definately $1 tip for each one. Although you do buy them direct from the Margharita bar in Bills (not waitress service) STILL for $2 a drink - its a bargain.

I always find that the more generous you are the more frequent the waitress visits are - so a bit more of a tip = more drinks = more fun = happiness all round

BTW - I am NOT an alcoholic!!!

It's a type of beer. I quite like it, although it is a bit more malty than your average lager. The $1 ones are 12 fl oz bottles.

Looking at booking for Vegas, going late July for 2 weeks. Have read the various comments about Stratosphere but not sure we can afford the hotels more central on the strip. Looks like we will get 2 weeks for £470 there which seems pretty good.

Have you checked out hotel prices using the links provided on https://www.smartervegas.com ? There are some great rates floating around for July, hopefully there will something for your budget in a better location than the Stratosphere. What are your exact dates?
