Yes, I am super excited about the firm trip to Las Vegas! I’ve always wanted to have the Vegas experience.  I, along with Jeanne Dedo and her husband, have booked a helicopter flight to the Grand Canyon!  That has been something else I have always wanted to do – see the Grand Canyon.  I really didn’t want to use up an entire day by driving there so I decided to take the helicopter.  While I’m pretty nervous about it, I’m also thrilled that I will be seeing the Grand Canyon.  I can check two things off of my bucket list with this trip.

I am taking my sister with me as my guest.  My sister is so much fun and I know she and I will have a blast.  We plan to attend one show and we want to ride the High Roller Ferris Wheel.  I’ve already started dieting so I can eat anything I want when I’m in Vegas.  I looked up the places that have been on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and may search out at least one of those to experience.  Other than that I have no other specific plans.  My sister has found several antique shops, consignment shops and flea markets she would like to visit.  If we get around to that, I assume those places are in the old downtown Vegas and I would like to do the zipline!

So for all of you seasoned Vegas people out there I need to hear your favorite spots, restaurants, cocktail lounges (female and age appropriate, please) and shows.  I’m not much of a gambler, but if you know a place I can actually win – that would be awesome!!  And high on my list would be the best place to just people watch – I’m sure there are a lot of interesting people in Vegas! I appreciate any advice you can send my way.
