    Been to Vegas annually since 1977. Took the pandemic for me not to visit. Gamble a little, see a show almost every night, people watching, pool time, and everything from In-N-Out to Joe’s.
    I arrive for 14 nights starting Memorial Day for my 85th visit from New Jersey. My happy place.
    Great informative videos, thank you.

    For breakfast/brunch, hit the Hash House A Go-Go. The one on the Strip gets crowded, but the one on Sahara is about a 10 minute Uber ride. Worth it. You won't be hungry until dinner. Speaking of dinner, if you can find a place off-Strip, you'll save a lot of cash. For a steakhouse, try Herbs & Rye, or for an amazing experience, get the tasting menu at a place called Partage. Regardless, make reservations for dinner wherever you go. Even the buffets!

    67 days & 11 hours to Vegas! But not like I'm counting down or anything. Great video Aly! I've been to Las Vegas dozens of times & Always learn something new with your videos before arriving there. My trips always start getting up early and hitting the lazy river & pools while staying Mandalay Bay. Is 10am too early for a margarita at the pool? Asking for a friend. I'm glad I did the High Roller last time at night. Yes! The sights were incredible. This time doing the Sphere Experience for the first time on this upcoming trip. Again Thanks for all the great info Aly. I'll think of you guys when I go back for my usual frozen Baileys!

      I have a video idea if u haven't done it yet of course. We sometimes have to stay in one area, for example, downtown. What are things to do, eat and see in the same vicinity that you could do for say 4-5hrs? I like the lovely triangle of Aria, Cosmo and Planet Hollywood. Thank you in advance ;-)
