Vegas in October

O is awesome, and you'd very much enjoy Zumanity ... though perhaps not if you're alone.

I'd take Love over Ka, but i think you're getting the drift that you can't go wrong with Cirque du Soleil (even Mystere is still good, though a little creaky and showing its age).

There's not much else i like to do in Vegas. I'm also not a gambler, so there's less and less of interest there (heheh, just as i'm making more friends who live there). No more Spamalot, no more Star Trek.

I still love the fountain shows and the conservatory at the Bellagio. And there are some great restaurants at the Wynn. What's your price range? Vegas is, alas, a very expensive town.

A sign that everybody is looking for something different. Love, to me came very close to sucking and Ka was just slightly better than O (or at least my several years old memory of O).

Diegos at MGM may have a great mojito (didn't have one) but the food was just so-so though the restaurant design and decor is great.

On buffets Paris for breakfast may be the best "relatively normal" one. Bellagio's has been great but we were very disappointed by the food a couple weeks ago. For dinner my favorite is Spice Market at Planet Hollywood.

For a great view I suggest a late night visit to VooDoo Lounge on the 51st floor of the Rio. The Rio is a bit off of the strip so the outdoor patio provides incredible views. Be warned of the cover charge and dress code.

I wish I could answer your question but I cannot because I have not been to Vegas myself. I have always wanted to go. It's probably not your kind of thing but I have always wanted to sit and watch a big game in a Sportsbook. I'm not too interested in gambling though I would probably put down a few dollars somewhere and hope to win something at a slot machine or blackjack table. That's about it. You'd probably like Cirque but that is not for me since it is so visual.

If I did go to Vegas it would probably be for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly weekender or CES if I got lucky enough.
