Hi

Tomorrow we are having a pool day & will be going to Casa Di Amore with limo pick and up & $25 cert so hopefully that'll be nice.

We were at Casa di Amore last night. Bill picked us up in the limo. It was a great meal, the best one we've had there. Tony was our server and he was great too.

OH had bone-in rib eye Steak Fiorentine and I had Pasta Raefalla. Both excellent. The cheesecake was very good. We had a bottle of wine as Sunday and Monday are half price wine nights.

It says on the r.com cert that they will add 18% gratuity, but they don't so remember to tip on the full amount of the check without the discount.

Sorry Luci - missed the connection (Doh!)

I have emailed them as it appears that two rooms for 3 adults and 1 child is coming up the same as one room - if that's correct it's a steal ($641)

Thanks again:o

I usually call places in Vegas as the email can be unreliable, but I have found the Carriage House to be prompt at answering emails. They usually come from Marie (Pierette) or Leonora.

I checked the price for a one bedroom with 2 adults and then with 3 adults and a child and they were the same price.

We went to the Chinese reflexology place today, but not the usual one. We went to the one just round the corner from Fatburger, near the Hawaiian Marketplace.

We have never noticed it before, but they are doing a special of 25 mins for $20. I had a foot and back massage, OH had a back massage and we both said they were excellent.

No conversation though as none of them speak English!

You can no longer get a $3 one way ticket on the Ace Gold, and I assume the Deuce is the same. The minimum is now a $7 24 hour pass.

I may book at the weekend - still toying with a two centre option, although I'm the sort that likes to 'settle' for the week, OH is thinking of it.

Decisions decisions!:)

Hi guys and girls, I am off to Vegas this coming Monday and I'd like to say a big thankyou to the contributors of this thread. This place has a wealth of information which has helped me plan my holiday so much better.

I have a question that I hope someone can help me with. I have completed my ESTA online and have given my advance details to BA. Is there anything else up to now that I need to do to enable my entry into the US. I believe I have to complete an I94-W on the plane also. I've googled and searched and can't find anything but I would just like this confirmed to put my mind at ease. Well, as at ease it can be with the volcano looming large.

Many thanks, Matt

We arrived last week and didn't need to fill out the I94 green form this time. You appear to have done everything that you need to do.

Don't worry! Just have a great time.

That's interesting - which US airport did you first land at? I know LAX isn't requiring the forms anymore - and on another thread someone said they didn't have to fill them out in Philly.

Went to see Terry Fator again tonight and he was excellent again. Really funny.

Went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner and it was very good. We had a combo entree to share, as the portions are so large, a couple of sides and a bottle of wine.
