“A cookbook, without an index”

LOL. Well, it's going to take me a LONG time to work my way through that entire thread, but I've already come across some recipes that I've saved.

I am probably the last to welcome you here, but.....



We're glad you are here!

If we go to Vegas, we will stay someplace with an indoor pool. I think there is lots to see in the area. She would enjoy the dancing waters at the Bellagio (?) and some of the other things.

We haven’t been there for about 6 years. The growth there is unbelievable.

That should keep her occupied. Aren't there also animals at one of the big hotels there? I can't remember which one though - where those white tigers are. There are probably lots of things to keep her interested and occupied.

Bellagio Fountians - Andrea Bocelli - Time to Say Goodbye

Two years ago, I went to Vegas with some friends. They made all the reservations. (Red light - never let someone else make your reservations.) Little did I know that it would be so expensive. We stayed at Ceasar's Palace - and it was $400/night, for a room no better than one at Motel Six. At least at Motel 6, you would have a coffee pot in your room. Not at Ceasar's Palace. You had to order coffee from room service - with tip - $20 a pot. No hair dryers, either - but you could order one from room service for $20/day.

Housekeeping 'forgot' to make the bed and leave clean towels, the second night there - and I have told everybody I know to avoid that place like the plague. It was the worst (and most expensive) vacation I have ever gone on.

I have heard that some of the smaller hotels on the outskirts of town are very inexpensive, and offer excellent service. Might be worth looking into.

Thank you for the link to the fountains, Yorkie. It was beautiful

We’ve stayed at the large hotels but we would not pay $400/night. I don’t think we ever stayed at Caesar’s Palace. I know the prices have skyrocketted.

If our son does the driving, we will need a two bedroom family suite. We prefer the Residence Inn but I don’t know whether they have any in Vegas.

The ‘friend’ told me she was going to get us a ‘real good deal’ online - and I told her to go ahead. She wanted to stay there, because Celine Dion was performing - and said if she got the tickets and room reservations in one package, it would be cheap. OMG I almost died, when I got the bill!

Residence Inn does have at least one in Vegas - here is a link, with info and phone number:
