Thank you all trip advisor posters!!

Hi All

Have been %26#39;lurking%26#39; on this site since we booked our first ever trip to Vegas (and America) in July 2008 for our trip in July 2009 for my 50th birthday.

Finally decided on Mirage due to its location, revamped rooms and pool (had money been no object, would have been Bellagio, fountain view or Wynn).

I have booked our tickets earlier this week for tickets for Love, Lion King and the Ultimate Hoover Dam Trip with Viator.

Things we must see and do are - Bellagio Fountains, hopefully whilst Andrea Bochelli Time to Say Goodbye or Viva Las Vegas are playing, Mon Ami Gabi as the chips look divine, Parasol up/down (any time of day/night), afternoon tea at Petrossian Bar, evening cocktails at Fix (or is it Mix) bar at Mandalay Bay and at least one %26#39;nice%26#39; evening meal (probably Wynn) and Casa di Amore.

We will have a daily gambling budget which when it%26#39;s gone it will be gone and will keep any winnings (have to go with a positive attitude).

I would like to thank all posters to this site as I feel I have learnt so much about Vegas from viewing all your posts. I am so, so excited for our first trip to Vegas and have just looked on the countdown clock - we have 115 days until we leave!!!

Thank you all trip advisor posters!!

I am glad so many posters were able to help you plan your trip. I am sure you will have a great time!

Good Luck and have a great birthday. Make sure you get all the extra bonuses/comps for you birthday. Gold Coast, %26amp; South point are just a few of the casinos that offer them.
