I then look up staff that I know and get my hugs and the latest skinny on who's doing what to who. There are a couple of Cocktail Girls that I tip well for the trip right up front and they watch after my wife and myself!! I always check out what may be new and look for favorite slot machines. I then wander to other Casinos and do the check-outs all over. My sleeping habits don't change a heck of a lot in Las Vegas as we are on/in the same time zone. Early to bed and early to rise..I like mornings a lot! .........Sometimes I even will nap in the afternoon for an hour or so....

Of course there is a 8 hour time difference for me,and despite getting no sleep on the plane i often stay up until i cant keep my eyes open. I don't have a set plan as what to do first. It depends on where i'm staying and how i feel. One year i arrived on a Sat night staying at the Strat,so spent the night on the Strat rides. When i stayed at the Sig last year the first thing i did after checking in was to take a heli trip over the strip. A couple of trips i had shows booked,and my other trip last year when i stayed downtown i gambled almost immediately for a few hours,had a visit from an escort,and eventually went to bed at midnight,which was 8.00am UK time. And i was still awake within 4-5 hours. I'm just toooo excited to sleep much while in Vegas.

Our first night in town we will gamble at home base to make a showing but I have learned from experience to tread lightly with that activity as traveling exhaustion creeps up fast. I like to go up to the room and have coffee while unpacking and setting up the room. We plan to order room service and have a light supper looking out at the lights of the city or strip, listen to a little smooth jazz, and try our hardest to sleep. I absolutely love that feeling of butterflies, anticipation, and sheer childlike excitement of the first night realization "We are in Vegas!"

I was going through my mind what I want to do first next week and went through so many things. I know I shoudl book more than three nights but I get Vegas burn out pretty quick sometimes

Posts: 26 05/19/08 19:02:18	we usually arrive late afternoon, check in, gamble an hour, eat then gamble till we're tired. We almost always remain in the casino we're staying at the first night, the next day we get up early, head to Paris for their breakfast buffet then take on the strip. We do tend to drink a little also, actually, a little too much, Lookin for some Hot Slots ! EdB

I like to arrive in Vegas mid-day, so I can get settled into my hotel before evening. I usually don't plan anything special for Day 1, but it often includes casino hopping, seeing what's changed on the strip since my last visit, checking out new places to eat, etc. ShelbyMustangGuy (a.k.a.

We are booked for $291 each which includes round trip direct airfare and seven nights. We are happy already. After unpacking our luggage and laying the pj's on the bed, we will probably walk down to Main Street Station for some BJ and too many laughs (one of the sisters doesn't get out too much). From there we will have to stroll through the Horseshoe to say hello to the remaining employees we know on a first name basis. El Cortez will be next on the agenda where we will probably get very silly and cackle the night away. One stop through the Fremont before heading to bed. Guessing we will hit the beds somewhere between 3-4:00 a.m. Luckily our pj's are waiting for us. Nine o'clock, we will be at the pool with coffee in hand. Sounds great already.....
