MEEEEEEEEE!!!!! :bananadance:

Definately looking into this one with hubby when he gets home.

I should be able to. I'll know more as the date gets closer.

I am seriously considering it! Of course, I will have the baby with me so perhaps the wild nights out will be curtailed a bit for me... :blush:

I'm in!

Maybe next time.

Ap, are you gonna create a list in your first post?

Oh heavens I hope so!!! That'll be only 2 months before the wedding so if we can we'll be there!

Done

LOL and she puts herself last! :whip: :P


Just FYI, and I'm not sure if you're gonna note this in the list or not, but Mike will probably come with me on this particular trip. So y'all will get to meet my other half, the side that keeps me somewhat down-to-earth (and out of jail :lol: )... the sanity to my craziness. :P

Has been updated :whistle:

:lmao: You Nut! :whip: :whip: :kiss:

Al may or may not join me. I doubt it but I'm going to try and convince him.

Same here. Not sure what Turtle's schedule is looking like til it gets closer. And I know Meg always wanted to go. So we'll see how her schedule might be :lol:

Started looking at flights and so far the cheapest is just over 1000 bucks :angry:

That's just crazy! I know you're coming from Canada and all, but it's not usually that much. If you can, just set some alerts and stuff up at Travelocity so you'll be notified of price drops and can try to jump on it right away.

I'm currently seeing prices around $200 something, but I refuse to book until I see something closer to $150. :lol:


So I think a good idea might be for those of us who are good at staying up on airline deals and such to post here as we see them, so that we can all take advantage. :D

Chronic, It might be cheaper to fly out of Buffalo

Checked and it was 14 bucks cheaper but not worth the hassle for that.

But you don't have the $200 in taxes there

will have hubby check again :shrug:

For some reason flights between the US and Canada seem very expensive. When I went to Toronto which is only a hour and a half flight, it was probably around 400.00. Does anyone have those websites they gave us at the convention to get cheaper fares?

Add me in... I HOPE to be driving in with Kel. :D

I think they are in my convention blog...

Ummm...did ya forget me? :cry:

No, seriously, I am planning on it. It's a little early to submit my time off request, but if everything works out, I'll be there.

Of course I didn't forget you, I was waiting for you to post and make it offical!!


Anyone want to trow out some ideas what they want to do, or where they want to stay.

As I mentioned in another thread I would like to see Mama Mia and maybe a Cirque de soleil show.

My hotel prefrences, based on price of course would be:
Luxor
MGM
Paris
New York
Flamingo
Aladin
maybe a few more.

Definitely want to see Cirque.

Hotels: Luxor or MGM

I love to gamble at the Luxor!!

I wouldn't mind either the Luxor or MGM either, they'd be my 2 top choices of the ones you listed. The MGM being newer than some, I think I've only been in that one once even.

Well feel free to list other hotels you may be interested in too. I just named these ones cause I've either stayed in them or I want to stay in them.

Well, I love the Venetian, esp the suite rooms with the hot tubs. But I'm not sure if the cost is feasible except for large numbers of people under a group rate, but you can always look into it along with the others... with the suites though, you've got 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, so you could easily fit 4 per room in them to help cut down on cost. But I'm pretty sure that without a group rate, those run over a grand a night. (When some people I know stayed in them during Internext, one of the huge adult conferences held out there every January, I think they could get them for like half that.)

And to put a stop on how many books you take home? :lol:
Well, let's see if the two Mikes can meet. We are planning to go but last week a few trips seem to pop up before October so we don't know how it works out.

Me and MrCaligula (and the kids but MrCaligula and the kids will be doing their own thing)

Okay, I may have hit a snag...I was reminded last night that my sister's baby is due in October. Plus, I'm still trying to get Mark okay with the idea of flying. :bash:

I haven't been to Las Vegas since I was in Jr. High (when I lived there), and that was back during the gulf war and the newest was the Excalbur. To be honest, I really don't care. I wouldn't even mind staying off the strip.. but that's just me. I'm not all that picky. My vote is for some place that isn't too pricy. :shrug:

Count me in! Luxor,New York, and Hilton are the only ones I have stayed at before on the strip.

Well my school semester is almost finished, then I might have a little time to see if we could get some group rates. Although we might get better rates as it gets closer to the date.

FWIW, Bally's or Treasure Island will be cheaper than MGM or Paris and are very centrally located and not at all sketchy...

Put me down as a maybe. I will try my best to be there.

Has any research been done on a hotel to stay at?
