We hardly ever go to the strip leave that to the tourists. Only go when we have friends in town.

I took the family to the Shark Reef at the Mandalay Bay about a month ago. Prior to that I took the family to the Wynn to check out the Ferraris, and then over to the Fashion Show to eat sushi at Ra (sp?). That was about a year ago, or maybe a year and a half.

Is that R/T time, or one way???????

That was the old MGM, the one that had the big fire (where Ballys is now.)

I agree completely.

City Center looks even more impressive when you're on Harmon, walking West towards the Blvd....

I occasionally cross the Strip. The last time was on Sunday to visit the Star Trek Experience at the Hilton. It's a shame, it was one of my few reasons to be in the area. The only other time I go in the area is to go to Togoshi Ramen on East Twain & Swenson. Great restaurant, I highly recommend it. The last time I was actually at a Strip property was back in June for the Sin City Inkfest at The Riviera.

Is it true that the Star Trek Experience is transponding away from LV?
