Celebrating a very special birthday

Haven't been on here for quite a while. Have got plane tickets booked, car is booked, 4 nights comped out of 5 booked. Hoping to get a few email reasonable offers for the first night in the new year. Arriving late March 27th & heading back home to Toronto on a red eye flight & arrive just after 7:00 a.m on April Fools Day.

Any suggestions how I can celebrate my 75th Birthday? Keep in mind this gal doesn't move as well as I used to, I will have my cane with me & my girlfriend that I always came to Vegas since the 1980's. Hoping for some great ideas.

Thanks in advance,
Diane

When checking in mention it is your 75th birthday maybe you will be upgraded.
We arrived on my wife's birthday & mentioned it & were upgraded to a suite & they also gave here a
cake. This was several years ago & at the hotel Paris.

Do something memorable that you haven't done before and will probably never do again. How about the Rio Zipline or a rafting trip near Hoover Dam?

Where are you staying? That may help us come up with some suggestions. If you haven't been to LV since the 80s, you are in for some big surprises. You will not recognize the place!!!!

Location? I was going to suggest the place on top of Paris.

Balloon ride with a champagne toast and snacks?

Are you acrophobic?
Wear yourself out doing stuff all day, some of the things suggested here: Visit the new hotel/casinos you haven't seen, do the Hoover Dam tour, the float drip down Black Canyon (that alone will wear you out but good feeling and they drop you off at your hotel), finish up with a High Roller ride.

THEN:

Have a bottle of your favorite wine or champagne cooling in your room. Get into your jammies (after a nice hot bath/shower), order room service meal, tuck yourselves, the food and drink glasses into your beds, toast your 75th in front of your favorite TV show (maybe Forensic Files?), and drink until you fall asleep. Sleep late. Congratulate yourselves in the morning that you didn't spend a ton of money on a mediocre dinner in a so-called gourmet restaurant.

That's how I'd do it.
Our first night will be somewhere we can get a cheap room as we will hit the hotel between twelve & one a.m. Then it will be off to beddybyes right quick. Our next day we book into the Cosmopolitan for 4 nights comped. Some of the suggestions so far I have already done & some of the others my rheumatoid arthritic body couldn't take it. Please keep suggestions coming & thank you for making suggestions for this old broad.

Kudos for the 4 comp nights at the Cosmo!!!!!!!!!!!!

You and your buddy may consider a mobility scooter,delivered to your room.
Keep your cane on board.
Great way to carry your stuff around.

The cheap rooms are down town or 2 blocks off of the strip.$30 - $50 a night.
Rent a car or going UBER? Taxi,maybe.

Probably not the busses.

I certainly hope that champagne is involved!
Happy 75,old girl!
