It"s cold outside and, of course, thoughts of Vegas have been running through my brain.

I like to try hotels that I haven"t stayed at before (at least for part of the trip) so, I"m thinking TI (that"s the new name for Treasure Island) for, at the very least, a couple of nights.

I can probably swing that on some "Loyalty Points" from various sources.

But then the Venetian (where I would be spending most of my time when on the Strip) also beckons. Not cheap (from my perspective) at minimum c.$140 a night (before tax & wi-fi)...I"d have to spend some points to do that one as well (or instead of).

IF, and it"s still a BIG if, I do..ahem, do the LA road-trip thing then I"m down to 10 days (ish) in Vegas. I want to stay at the Orleans for, say, 5 nights...I like it there...so to "mix "n" match" with all my choices I"d be switching hotels a lot.

Or perhaps I should just book into Harrah"s or Imperial Palace for a week again (for location preference). I think we"ll probably get enough people to sort out a Group Rate....but then I"m repeating hotels.

Decisions, decisions....and, yes, I know I"m spoiled for choice.

Wait...I"ve had a thought...anyone else wanna stay at the the Orleans?

Paulie...

Did you deliberately forget to mention that right next door to Orleans is McMullan"s Irish Pub??

;)

I am not really bothered where I stay, I am not one to care about trying new hotels. However I would like to stay in the one place, where that place is I am not fussy. So wherever the majority of eventual travellers stay is OK with me.

PS - I trust our esteemed travel guru and will follow blindly  ;D
