so what to do once you get there?



So you get to Vegas, bags to carry,suitcases to get at the airport and duhhhh your lost.There is rental cars,taxis and my favorite because i feel safe,shuttles.They cost $6.50 or so to go from the sirport to a hotel and the people are kind to help you take your things out back,they are also kind to kids.
Once you get to the hotel and do that all important chech in,please,please don't complain it takes a few mins,theres lines,people are also checking in,use your patients and just enjoy looking around.
So you have a bellman help you to your room,tip him $2.00 because he is being helpful.Now sometime syour room isn't hwta you wnat,i believe people find problems with rooms before really finding a problem.Speaking nice to managers and employees gets you more then being nasty.I stayed at the Orleans,one of my favorite hotels,my flight got in at 9;30am,i got to the hotel around 10;am pr so,i checked in,they were gonna give me a non smoking room,i requested a smoking room,they were kind to change it to the room i wanted,upon cheking in and getting help,most hotels now have a security check point,room keys folks,you must have them available so they know your are a guest.Once in my room,yes i checking to make sure it was clean,it was, smelled good for a smoking room,saw the pool,the bathroom was roomy and clean,the halls clean,i had no complaints.The only problem I ahd was with a light that didn't work,if you call the desk and are nice they will send a person up to look at a problem,if your ude, forget it.
Granted all people go for the gambling,i don't gamble all that much and had my son with me,you must be 21 to gamble.I also did not stay in my room either.I unpacked,took a shuttle after we had something to eat and we went to the strip.
once on the strip,theres now elevated people walks,yeah no being run over by cars or buses,use them they are convient.I went to alot of places with my son,we hit harrahs,my favorite hotel where i am staying this time,we sat under teh shade of the carnival court,heard live music ,had soda and fries,this was our routine everyday because it was nice to take a break.
We then went to buy some t-shirts,o'sheas had shirts and i bought one,we then took the elevator at the corner of the old barbary coast which is now bills saloon and went across to ballys,i love ballys,it plays music and fun ,fun,fun.we walked into the hotel and looked at the shops,then it connected to Paris,the shops are nice but expensive,then to the aladdin which the mall there is now called mircle mile,it was awsome and they have build a bear and aveda for my hair.
We decided to go back to the other side and yes while your all probley wonder"were there pervs on the corner throwing paper of a call girl"?yes and i ignored them.We went to The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino and looked at art and saw the gadilla along with strolling singers,it was lovely.
we then went to bellagio,oh my,how beautiful,we saw the flower garden and dancing water falls,if you never have gone,go.Then we took our shuttle back to teh orleans and relaxed,had dinner and went to sleep,Most hotels have shuttles to get around.
