where can i get the best deal on a vacation package to las vegas ?

There are many deals at expedia.com and travelocity.com
lasvegas.com

There are casinos everywhere – so don’t feel you have to lose all of your money at one location.
There are roller coasters on top of tall buildings.
There are white tigers on the first floor side area of the Mirage.
There are outside shows at Treasure Island.
Gambling:
There are many where you can lose $50 without even trying, then win $10, then win another $50.
It’s easy to lose $100+ a day minimum, so if you’re smart
you’ll back away if you lose $20 – and try your luck another time, or another day.

Best location, and I stayed there January 2006, was the Mirage and it’s next to Treasure Island, across from Venetian Grand canal, and down the street are Bellagio and the Eiffel tower.
You can walk everywhere, or take the bus when your feet get tired (very cheap).

Don’t forget to lunch at the Eiffel tower – pricey but great, great food, and across from the fantastic Bellagio fountains that have themes – yes dancing fountains w/music when you’re outside to hear.

Lunch also at the revolving restaurant -where you can see all of Vegas during the day – THE STRATOSPHER. The food was magnificent and you can see if you go at lunchtime – where the people of Las Vegas live and the mountains that surround it.

Las Vegas – I saw Jay Leno and he was non-stop for 1 & 1/2 hours of jokes, and we got the last 2 seats in the far section, and it was still somewhat close because the entertainment area was well done!

We went to see Mystere show – and the best is called “O” which means water in French. The stage actually opens for people to dive into, and then closes for people to walk on it.
So amazing.

At the end of 7 days, I was ready to come home. It’s exciting, but not enough to say, wow someday I’d consider living there.

GOD bless us one and all, always.
