Just a heads up on sightseeing plans: Ghostbar (at the Palms) has a cover charge that is not very favorable ($10-20 depending on the night). Stretch limo is a good deal when splitting the cost (expect about $200-300 for the night, include a tip for the driver) and will hold 10-14 people. Less expensive siteseeing options: Fremont Street Experience (free), Stratosphere Tower ($4-10 per person to go up to the top, another $5-10 for each ride, packages available, get a local to buy your ticket to go up and it will only be $4), new show outside Treasure Island called "Sirens of TI" (free). Visiting the Adult Superstore is free (unless you buy something). There is also the Elvis Museum "Elvisorama"(nominal fee). Unfortunately, the Eiffle Tower at the Paris is relatively expensive (and no discounts). And the Star Trek Experience (at the Hilton) raised their prices ($25 but it's an unlimited pass for the whole day). For a good bar (with no cover, just a dress code), Whiskey Sky at Green Valley Ranch Station Casino is awesome ambience. Great decor, nice comfy couches, outside deck, similar drink prices as the other bars, and no cover. However, it is off the strip - but with a limo, distance is not an issue (unlike taxis that will charge by the 1/9th mile). On strip recommendations: RA (Luxor), Studio 54 (MGM), Curves (Aladdin - if it hasn't changed ownership by next spring), VooDoo Lounge (Rio). I'll keep checking this board and happy to answer questions. 'squeek' (one of the locals)

That sounds like fun Pamy. Assuming Mom and I go though, that may be just too much for Mom, especially if there was a lot of "getting in and out" of the vehicle. Not to mention, there's the wheelchair to consider (is there a lot of room in that limo's trunk?). Looks like we'd end up being kinda dead weight on that excursion. And...dressing up? Ack! I don't know what that means any more!

Who, we will probably have more than 1 limo, so 1 limo could be for people that don't want to get in and out alot. I am waiting for Kona to respond and I will ck with the limo co and post more details. Great Bobbie!!!

Pamy, how about a party van? I found this one: Las Vegas Luxury Limousine Coach Plus some pictures from that site:
If not - then maybe there are links on that site to other options.

OH I could bring you handcuffs if you want them! We have lots of them! Pamy sounds great to me. I have stayed at the Stratosphere before and I have been to the Star Trek experience, but I have done nothing else on the list!
