Have you been up there before? The windows are angled so you can look straight down. I didnt feel any shame, strange thing is she wont go on coasters

plus you can outside to the balcony. i love going up high things and the top of the strat is a great place to visit. only the CN tower is as good for sheer height and glass floors you can look down on .

Hi trigger,
Im sure that I got mine from Amazon, but I didnt pay that much for it!
Maybe I am getting confused and ordered it elsewhere cos after checking on amazon yesterday its coming out at something close to £20 and Im certain that I didnt pay that.
See ferfs advice on page 169 I think - its a great help.

Hi Steff, took your advice and order the ACG from Amazon it was £15.25 though. Turned up today and it's the 2006 version so all the coupons had long expired. Was really wanting to use the one for La Cage show, so suppose I'll have to try to get half price tickets from one of the ticket booths. Suppose this is a bit of warning to others, when I placed my order it was def. for the 2008 version.
Not a happy bunny. Sounds like I having a go at Amazon (their service is usually beyond reproach: suppose it was just a mistake on their part), did get a free return on the book though.

for the coaster fans out there perhaps a trip to Primm could be justified (plus the outlet mall there).

http://themeparks.about.com/cs/lasvegas/a/desperado.htm

When it first opened, the Desperado had the official blessing of the Guiness Book of World Records as the world's tallest, fastest, and steepest roller coaster. It's since been eclipsed in all categories, but the heart-pounding, 225-foot first drop places it firmly in hypercoaster territory. With its steep decline, the Desperado clocks in at speeds up to 95 mph.

Personally, it nearly killed me. Seriously, the force aas we hit the climb after the first drop and the way I was holding my head at the time (down) meant my neck was forced down beyond it's normal capacity and I was in a lot of pain for a few days.

But I'm totally a girl.

Was browsing the web earlier and came across this site,

http://vegastodayandtomorrow.com/

I know a lot of you will probably have already seen this site, but it's got some quite interesting facts on it, like the Titantic being able to fit in the Bellagio Lake.

Im trying to join the PH players club online, but it keeps telling me to enter a valid phone and fax number. Im putting in the international code of +44, then my area code, without the 0, then the rest of my number. Is this correct?? Can anyone advise??

It would be 011 44 then your number (less the 0 to start).

American's (including me) can't work with the + thing...+ what? confuses me to no end.
