    wow. Vegas??! That's going to be a hell of a time.

    I'm not going to say anything yet. because i usually say i'm gonna go, and then i end up not. i guess it all depends on my job/money situation by that point.


    I'm thinking that the whole Monte Carlo thing is just foreshadowing.

    If it hadn't have burned down on its own, we would have just done it when we got there.

    Usually rooms in Vegas are relatively cheap, they expect you to lose all your money gambling

    If you aren't going to share with someone, for that hotel, I would say probably 90-100 per night.

    Yup, for the weekend nights, the weekday rate was a lot cheaper.

    I generally wait until 5 or 6 months before to book a room, although I've done it as late as 30 days. You wait that late, though, and you'll probably have to take what you can get. There are cheaper places to stay.

    I was having a beer just before going to see Rambo.
    I look up at the Tv in the pub, and see a hotel on fire in Vegas, I immediately said. "Oh shit, that looks like the Monte Carlo". As the helipcopter swings around the building, sure enough I could see the name of the hotel.
    I told my son, "I am going to hear shit about this!"

    Yeah, if there's any other Las Vegas landmark you'd like to burn down, I suggest you mention it here.

    Thanks for the costs info everyone. We'll see what pans out. I like the idea of group rates and what not. Randall Flagg, I'm trying to make up my mind about Rambo as we speak...been reading a lot of reviews which are actually kinda mixed.

    Not only would that hurt like hell, but you would most likely die.

    hey monte. glad to see you're alive after you've been long lost.

    I'll be there to harass you to no end. I guess we're not staying at the monte carlo because you had to jinx it and it burnt down.
