WOOHOO!! Fun times 'cept for my stolen camera, battery, and 512 high speed CF card

Grand Canyon was badass! walked right up the edge and felt my nutsack jump into my abdomen since there is no railing on teh little detour we took. The tiny plane did well...bumpy at spots but liveable. Drove out to the Hoover Dam.....AMAZING!

"Top of the world" revolving retaurant at the top of the stratosphere....AMAZING. Quite pricey(me and michelle was about $200 w/o drinks) but the view and atmosphere is unreal. You will need reservations unless you get lucky.

Tons of places. Just go everywhere and don't forget your "comp cards"

Mandalay bay(where we stayed) had a pretty cool sushi bar/live band/lounge type thing. That was neat. Quick bite to eat listen to some tunes and hit the tables.

Just make sure you pick up all the little brochures and stuff offereing free crap. You never know where you will end up and get a free mug or Tshirt or something.

Hard Rock was pretty cool and the way that the one here in tampa SHOULD be. Spent a few hours there a couple nights ago. My body was hurting leaving there @ 4am(7am tampa time) but indeed fun times.

Oh yea had to add The line outside the Vegas Courthouse was UNREAL!

Also saw 2 of the new H3 test mules on the strip. They were all waring the leathers and black plastic everywhere. They were pretty small. But the chrome grill was unimstakably hummer. I would have had pics but since my digital is now gone....well you get the picture(or not )

Damn, sounds like a lot of fun. One day I'll have to head up there. Is there a lot to do if you don't want to gamble? Keep in mind I'm a married man now so "that" is out of the question.

There is tons to do w/o gambling. I am not big on it myself...the last day however I did win $200 with only $5 so it can be fun as long as you know how to control yourself unlike 95% of the people there.

It'll take you about 2 days just to visit all the different hotels and their "malls" and gaming areas etc... Then Hoover damn is about 30 minutes away driving. VERY cool, We took a flight out to the grand canyon and it was coupled to a guided tour w/ bus and a little walking. Bars, restaurants, the little indoor themeparks, we stayed at mandalay bay and there is a shark reef/aquarium there, decent sushi bar in the middle of it, wave pool, lazy river etc...

Not to mention TONS of shows. They aren't cheap but there are of EVERY kind.

And I didn't go to any of "THOSE" places either. No time to. We were gonna go but the 5 days just didn't seem to last...
