I will be arriving vegas on aug 13th! I, too, am bouncing around different hotels. Orleans, the Cal, Downtown Grand, Golden Nugget. 3 of these are first timers for me. I while back I listed all the different hotels that I have stayed at in Vegas. I lost that list, but I think it is approx. 25-30. its just another fun part of the vegas adventure that we here on this forum seem to enjoy. I am paying a TOTAL of $63.01 and that is for the fri/sat at the Cal. all of the other nights are free, and hopefully with no surprise resort fees. gotta luv it!!
