Easy to do. How was traversing the city in her chair? Doesn't appear to be very hp friendly here.

the only problem we have had was when one of the urine smelling elevators of the overpasses was broken down. we had to retrace our steps...go up a block and backtrack..

their buses are good though...

my mother works at one of the local casinos off the strip so we stay there and this last time decided to buy a couple daily bus passes for under $20 instead of spending $50 one way for a taxi..

Nice to have a local as a travel guide. We're here just winging it.

gae and i have been there 3 times

and i have been there a whole host of times before we got married...

neither one of us really gamble, so we just go for the sites (she likes the wax museum and window shopping)

otherwise we just hang around our hotel..swim, bowl, and the like..

My guess is she wasn't the only one here drinking from a straw. Amazing how many people are on the street getting hammered.

My co-worker is jelus, she loves Vegas.

Do you go to that frozen room to drink beer out of an ice glass? Not sure what it is called but the way she described it was way cool. (pun intended)
