    You could add

    Behind and to the left of the Bellagio conservatory is the world largest chocolate fountain, its worth a look.

    http://www.pinballmuseum.org/ all machines are playable

    http://www.lvmgp.com/ Karting is fun here

    http://www.ethelm.com/about_us/factory_tour.aspx Ethel M chocoalte factory and cactus garden.

    gameworks is a dive, last year many of the games didnt work and the ones that do are outdated


    The lists above go to show that there is plenty to do in Vegas for those that think 3 days is to long!!

    I could double that list with other outdoor excursions, shopping and sports events
