I haven't been to it, but if you like that sort of thing - maybe consider Las Vegas Mystery Adventures...we've been twice and I want to go again, though my hubby is reluctant as one elment appeared in both (in very different ways) so he says 'I will spend the whole time looking for the XXXX'.

Just don't read too far into the reviews as some people kind of give away too much.

I would second Mystery Adventures. It was a nice way to spend an afternoon, but I wouldn't do it again as I've done it.

Evening – Meal at Comme Ca and then Legends in Concert @ Harrahs

Is it the late show of Legends you have booked? That's the only way I would do a nice meal and a show in one night, otherwise it is squeezing too much in.

Hello all, just heading back home after a week in vegas. Trip report will follow. Short version, got engaged, hertz let us down with hire car, mix is amazing. Excalibur is highly under rated. Strip burger and texas de brazil so so nice. Won so much money on last day only spent 60 pound out there. As i used tesco vouchers to pay whole holiday for everything cost less then 500 pound!

Tickets to see UNLV Football match just arrived via Fed-Ex :j - looking forward to it, we try to do something new on every trip to the states.
Spursman - see you there, we are section 108 row 9 seats 9/10 if you end up anywhere near us - I think you said you were looking at section 108 as well.
Tickets were $37 each but Fed-Ex were $40 to get them here :eek:

November / December

Quick question about the grand canyon tour. I'm about to book our's now, it's the airplane visionary air tour on papillion. Which time are we best going at? There's a 7-8am departure, 12-1, and 3-4? We're going to do it on the 21st November, and we're only there from the 20th-23rd so I was thinking about doing the 7am one so we have the afternoon and night free, does this sound like a good idea?
