The best Las Vegas vacation imaginable would be to remarry my husband again (30 years this September 25th) at a Las Vegas Chapel with Elvis singing in the background. Wouldn't that be a hoot!  Kathy Bikers Minneapolis MN

 

I would love to spend a week in Vegas, stay at one of the most exciting casinos (Hard Rock?), go to a day spa or golfing by day, do some shopping and sight seeing and then check out the fine dining in the evenings, then go see one of my favorite music concerts at night, day after day after day...  Lori Pierce  Keller TX

 

My dream vacation to Las Vegas would be prefect. Yes, I have been to Vegas but it was to see my brother and his wife. They are now back in Texas and if I went back I could really spend some time down on the strip. I would want to be treated like a high roller; you know its like having candy with sugar on top. I would want to see lots of shows, visit other Hotels and have several spa treatments. Best of all I would want to experience all of this with my future husband!  We are getting married in July and we have been to New York and Alaska together, Las Vegas is one of several places we want to see!  Christina Hesse  Fort Worth TX

 

My Idea of a "Vegas Dream Vacation" is being able to see all of the fantastic entertainment, although I have been known to toss a few buck into the one armed bandits!  I have never been to Vegas but has been on my have to do vacation list for some time. The TV show like "casino and C.S.I. have twigged my urge to make the trip even further. One of my fantasies is to visit every casino along the strip!  I hear the dinning is world class. So I guess I should start packing my bags. Hope to see you soon!  Paul Philip  North York ON Canada

 

I am a 38 year old single mother of two boys and a three year breast cancer survivor. My ex-husband is not and has not been in our lives, financially or otherwise in the last 9 years. I have never been on a vacation without my children and I think that a girl's spa trip to Las Vegas would be incredible. Not only would it be nice to be pampered and massaged but there is so much to see and do and so many great places to eat, with adults only! I look forward to lounging by the pool, late dinners with a good bottle of wine, pedicures, taking in a Vegas show and most of all, relaxing. If I were to win, it would be the trip of a lifetime.  Sheila Goosherst  Chicago IL

 

Arriving at McCarran Airport, picked up by a Limo, taken to one of the casinos, having tickets to a HOT show, and given some gambling money - of course winning with that money would be great and then when the visit is over, being taken back to the airport, by limo, with some gift to remember the great vacation with.  Beverly Wilson  Von Ormy TX

 

I an going to win big.  Rachel Ocampo  Greenacres WA

 

I can't tell you my Vegas Dream Vacation because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!  Nicole Ferrell  Raleigh NC

 

My dream is to see Vegas in real life not just on my TV, I have never been on a plane but I would jump at the chance to go to Vegas, I am a gambler at heart, and I am always dreaming of winning a fantastic prize, winning a trip to Vegas with some extra cash to spend and then hitting a huge jackpot while in Vegas would be the ultimate dream come true. I would just like to be able to share my good fortune with my family and not have to worry of how to make ends meet in normal everyday life. What is wrong with just wanting to live like the wealthy and have a little taste of the good life, I have begged my husband for a trip to Vegas and he always say's we cant afford that kind of trip or for me to just keep dreaming. So that is what I am doing, dreaming that I will win the dream vacation of my life, who knows maybe it will come true and I will finally get to go to Vegas and stay in one of those luxury suites, which is far away from my east cost home. Sweet Dreams!  Penny Morrison Huntington WV

 

My dream vacation will be with my husband to a place that is fun for adults. I would like to enjoy the time without the responsibility of grandchildren or children and see shows. Most of all to relax with my husband and watch the fun happen all around us. We spend our week taking care of the children that are still at home with no time left to ourselves. Getting away is the ONLY time we have to relax. My husband is a great handyman and much in demand from a large family. I want to take him away to a place that he is not responsible for even the driving or the planning. He needs to be free of work and needy people. It is hard to not help, so going away takes away the guilt for us.  Debora Price  Leesville SC

 

Taxi, MGM quick. Checking in with no time to unpack. Got to make it to the "Center stage" to catch a star. After which time to unwind @ the Casino with cocktails & Gaming. Viewing the beautiful mountains @ sunrise, making for a perfect am @ the pool, untill I'm off on my Air tour of Grand Canyon.  Dusk is setting show time on Fremont St. Buffet @ Golden Nugget, luck with the leprechaun, 50ft Cowboy whow-hee.  Antique and classic cars, Top of the world, Cheap snacks with a clown or 2. Lions & Tigers, flowers & Elvis. Pirates, fountains & marble what a site too see. Oh Paris, NY, Castle and Egypt.  Atlantis while eating cheesecake. Caesar don't mind. A little romance in the middle of being sung to in Italian.. Oh life is good. Off to Hotters to let the honey get excitement for a while.  Keeping the adrenalin running on the Manhattan express. Afterwards cooling down @ motown express. while keeping my eye on the one armed bandit.  Time to slip in the bottle @ the world of coke, with some M&M's to keep me going.  Trying my luck @ Casino Hopping, The oldies are goodies and meeting some interesting folks along the way.  Making my way to watch the "krispy Creams", Fudge and more singing of staff.  Art, History, Speedway, Liberace, Brides & Wax. Never know what comes next, but it's all good. Off the strip, Dancing my night away @ Sams Town, Have to get to The Flamingo just to see. I want to see it all. I love this town.   Cynthia Leshko  Tamaqua PA

 

My dream vacation would be to renew our vows at one of the nicest chapels, stay in a suite with a good view of Las Vegas, be comped at any of the shows my Husband and I would like to see. Dine wherever we want. Have a chauffer to drive us all over the area and to tour whatever there is to see. Be given a comp amount to gamble, and a shopping spree gift certificate. And to invite 12 of our friends to enjoy it all with us.  This would be my dream Las Vegas Vacation!  Barbara Cooper  Richardson TX

 

It would be cool to stay in one of the expensive penthouse suites and given some money to gamble with, like the big rollers play. Then take a plane ride over the grand canyon and the dam. Be given a "behind the scenes" tour of the best casinos and shows. Get to live like a Queen for a day and be pampered. Get to take limo rides to and from shows of my choice and also, invite a few friends along for the time of their lives. This would be the best Vegas vacation that I could ever imagine.   Laura Lindamood  Selma NC

 

My girlfriend moved to Las Vegas 27 years ago. I have gone to see her twice in the past 27 years. The Moment I got off the plane and saw her it was just like we picked up the conversation from yesterday. We were not stop talking for the 5 days I was there and just the best friend a person could have. Only wished we lived closer together. Last year I had to fight cancer and at the moment I'm doing o.k. But I would love to see my friend again soon.
Lois Lietz  Lodi WI

 

I think the Vegas Dream Vacation would be to be picked up at the airport in a Limo, which would take us to the penthouse suite at an upscale hotel. Okay I have never even been close to staying in a penthouse suite but I've seen it in the movies. Then I would like to be picked up that evening by limo and taken to dinner and a show (any show would be good). Then be brought back to the hotel to gamble (oh yea, need money for that too) and then retire to our penthouse suite for champagne and chocolate cover strawberries. This might be a little over the top for my Texas Firefighting husband but once in a life time it would be a great fantasy come true if it ever happened. We have discussed many times about visiting Las Vegas and this fantasy is way out of our reach but what would you have if you didn't have dreams? I would love to live like a queen even for a very short time. Don't get me wrong I have a very blessed life but to live outside of our normal life would be very exciting. But for right now I will just close my eyes and dream. Hopefully this Texas Lady will see Ya'll soon.  Patricia Cook  Seabrook TX

 

Vegas = a win for everyone, right? Well, my dear friend Father Mac, a two time purple heart WWII veteran is already a winner. But, his mission at the very active age of 84 is to make everyone in the world a winner. His ministry is bringing compassion and love to all. Every penny of his pension goes to support Maryknoll international missions. Although I realize that fun and games is the heart of LV, as a gambler when I play I am able to temporarily block out the problems in the world. Father Mac's dream is to contribute all he can to those in need of basics. One of my favorite stories that he shares takes place in 1930's. He and his mother were driving cross country CA to PA. They stopped in a dust bowl in the desert. His mother found a fun gimmicky machine to play. She had a blast pulling the arm and prophesied that these gaming contraptions could catch on. I can't imagine what Father Mac would feel if he visited modern LV. It proves all things are possible. The glory of LV actually shows what good can be accomplished if we would commit ourselves to abolishing poverty in the world.  Dianne Skripek  Phoenixville PA

 

My Vegas Dream Vacation would be to stay in the Real World Suite at the Palms. Have front row seats to Celine Dion. Meet Wayne Newton. And party at Rain till the sun comes up!  Shannon Scott  Tacoma WA

 

I currently live in Las Vegas but really have not done Vegas!  So my dream trip in Las Vegas would be for me and my boyfriend to get all dressed up, like I am the Rich and the famous and drive in one of the most exquisite vehicles, and go out for a night on the town. We would stop by hotels like Bellagio, MGM, etc.. and eat dinner, go to the shows, and after that go the the casino part of the hotel and spend money like we were rich at the tables. After that we would finish off by calling all family and friends and telling them to meet us at one of the wedding chapels and have the most memorable Night/wedding ever!  Lushica Parker  Las Vegas NV

 

I'm afraid that by telling you my dream Vegas vacation I will be in violation of the "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" rule.  Sarah Hill  Indianapolis IN

 

I'll need to se real dolphins, and then see 2 or 3 shows, I'd love to have each meal out. I would like to go dancing. I would like to see a song dancing. and the evening will be very pretty with the lights and then go back to room and relax, the end.  Luana Pautz Hope Mills NC

 

I am so excited when I finely get my Dream come true and visit Las Vegas.  Rita Drolet  Greenville SC

 

Gazing down from my private helicopter's window, I already knew this city was going to be something special. A tapestry of lights performing a dance of colors--pinks and blues twirling around greens and golds in a graceful display of aesthetic pleasure. Human beings and illumination all in non-stop high performance. And I discovered a decadent opportunity to get right in there with the action by landing directly on top of the roof of one of the largest casinos--the one my millionaire boyfriend paid off to add the landing pad just for us. Here we are ushered to our limo where our chauffeur whisks us off from Casino to Casino, while our personal assistant walks behind carrying our bags of winnings. Later, a room overflows with candles and flowers where our private dinner is served by our own eager-to-please butlers, peppered with a spectacular Vegas-style show or two, performed for our own personal enjoyment. I look fabulous, adorned in my Armani gown and bedazzling, bejeweled tiara. A famous Hollywood agent and producer soon notices, and asks me to star in a movie being filmed there called, "Dream Las Vegas Vacation." About a girl who wins a contest. Of course I will! The night ends in a glorious soak in the world's largest and most decadent hot tub, while Tom Jones hand feeds me rich, creamy, zero-calories chocolates. Ahhh...Las Vegas.  Wait---it was only a dream. Or was it?  Kathryn Noll  Reading PA

 

The last time we were in Vegas, it was the First time my husband and I had a vacation Alone together for over 18 years. We felt like kids again, as Vegas seemed to us at least, to be the Disneyland equivalent for adults. We played, we ate, we...well, Anyway, my dream Vegas vacation would be spent again, alone with my husband, just going wherever we wanted, eating where we wanted, seeing shows we wanted, and just enjoying each other! Vegas is the Perfect place to do that!  Jan McClure Albuquerque NM

 

In my fantasy, I'm Shirley MacLaine swimming with the bull sharks: Belting back a few with Dean at Caesar's Shadow Bar. In Sammy's Corvair Limo zipping down the strip. Frank wants to argue politics with Joey's guest star Peter Lawford, but I'm not having it on MY night. We all stumble into Zoomanity, the raciest Cirque show. Frank stares baffled while Joey and I dissolve into laughter. When a nasal-toned heckler cracks wise, Dean spins around, "Hush up, Jerry!" then impatiently rattles the ice cubes in his empty glass.  Afterward, we dash over to Bellagio where Sammy tries to school me on craps. I don't get it and end up just blowing on the dice for good luck. Boring!  Frank feels my pain. He hands me a stack of cash and says, "Go play, Doll face."  Wait--I'm Shirley-Doggone-Maclaine! I've got my Own fortune. And if I wanted a guy talking down to me, I'd call my brother Warren!  I'm also polite and, not wanting to look a gift horse in the mouth, I saunter over to a friendly-looking 100 dollar machine.  Halfway through the stack, I jackpot. Six hundred thousand bucks. Not bad. Maybe I'll even return Frank's money...Nah.  The night continues with me marrying Peter, then him annulling the deal after I blurt out that I'd always wanted an "in" with the Kennedy's. Joey eases the heartbreak with jokes about busting us out of "the institution" of marriage. Soon we're all high-fiving each other and, as the sun comes up, we head out in our evening clothes to play a round at Wynn's spectacular new golf course.  Ring-a-ding-ding, indeed!   Tina Slatton  Chicago IL

 

I've never had the chance to go to Vegas, but after hearing all the crazy stories and the infamous phrase, "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas," I'm almost positive that Vegas is as good as everyone says. My Vegas dream vacation would include being able to stay at a luxury suite at the Bellagio since one of the attractions I want to enjoy is their wonderful fountain show. Being that I'm from New York, I would also like to see the Manhattan Express at New York attraction to see how realistic it is compared to the real city. As for dining, buffets are what everyone talks about. I would like to try all the varieties in an all you can eat buffet of my choice. Lastly, who could forget gambling? My dream vacation wouldn't be complete if I didn't risk a little at the slots and tables at the casinos.  Patricia Cheung  Staten Island NY

 

My ideal Vegas vacation would be one where three generations of my family could join together to have a great time with something for everyone. We have a multi-generational family with grandparents in their 60's and 70's and children as young as 2. Though Vegas, at first glance, seems to be a place geared toward adults, there is now a great deal of entertainment for children. As a family, we could see a variety of shows and enjoy entertainment not found anywhere else. Vegas would also give the adults the opportunity to enjoy a view moments sans children where we could all have fun. From Cirque de Solei to Circus Circus to MGM Grand, we could all have a blast spending time together and experiencing an ideal setting and environment which truly does offer something for everyone.  Kathy Conley  Pierce City MO

 

My dream Vegas vacation was in 1979 when me and my husband got married. He was 22 I was 18 he was wanted in Illinois and we decided to stop in Las Vegas and get married. We were marred at I think it was called the little white chapel. We have been 28 years.  Debra Rimmer  Grand Island NE

 

In 2004 my dear husband of 35 years was diagnosed with gastric cancer. One of his dreams was to be able to take a trip to Vegas. He was able to defeat this cancer after two years of treatments and doctors prodding his body. In November of 2006 we were able to take our first trip to Vegas to celebrate our 35th anniversary and his complete remission from the gastric cancer. It has been agreed on by both of us that we would like to return to Vegas to enjoy the sites we missed on this first trip.  Karen Wiechart  Delphos OH

 

A dream vacation to Las Vegas for me would have to be enjoying two nights at the Four Queen Casino and Hotel. We could gamble a bit (wining, of course), eat fantastic food in a shaded dining area. We could then spend two more nights at the Excalibur Casino and Hotel. There we would enjoy the "Tournament of Kings" show and walk through the Tropical Water Park. One of our finest dinners would be served at Hugo's Cellar. The hostess there is Jean and I hear she's fantastic. Great wine and delicious steak would definitely be on the menu'.  Going home with all of our winnings and wonderful memories, we would be refreshed and relaxed.  Linda Connell  Waterloo IA

 

A 2 week long stay at Winn with $10,000 to spend on gambling, free meals and all the top shows.  Lori Heeg  Loves Park IL

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be to stay at the Ritz Carlton, go to a Jerry Seinfeld comedy act. I would see Cirque de Solei and the blue man group. I would enter a amateur poker contest and win! I would bet 100 dollars on one spin of a wheel and hit it big! And last but not least I would sit at a poker machine and hit a royal flush on my third bet.  Mary Soscia  Avon OH

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be a wedding and honeymoon for my boyfriend and I and a vacation for our daughter and the rest of our family. They are all waiting for us to get married, but we can't afford it. Also I want to have our wedding far away so that only our closest loved ones would be there with us. huge weddings freak me out, but I love large group vacations!  Heather Miller  Bloomington IN

 

I would love to win because I have never been to Vegas and I would really love to go.  Anna Didonna  Carneys Point NJ

 

Last time I went to Vegas was 5 years ago, my uncle who had leukemia, bought all his nieces and nephews a ticket to go, knowing this would be his last trip, he really wanted to ride on the New York New York roller coaster, but he was to sick. the next time I go I would love to ride that rollercoaster in his memory, even though I think it will scare me, I'm not sure that I really could go through with it, but if I can't, I would stand by the rollercoaster with a beer in my hand and salute to my uncle in the sky, saying "bob" did you really ever think I would ride that monster! then go gamble, just like he would have!   Chris Audette  Cosmopolis WA

 

Limo meets me, Mr. Wynne greets me, poolside heats me, Bon Ami sweets me, casino treats me, and Vegas wins me over and over again...  Debra Steriovski  Blasdell NY

 

With family and friends! Daytime spent poolside or in a spa having full body massages and the nighttime spent seeing the shows and perhaps a helicopter tour of the strip.  Annique Cain  Tucson AZ

 

Just taking the trip to Las Vegas for free would be ideal. For instance, free airfare, free hotel accommodation, and possibly even a voucher/cash for some slots would just send anyone jumping for joy. Las Vegas isn't just A place to live, but a place where tourism and vacationist seek sometimes much needed leisure and time away from good home sweet home.  Ramona Wilson  Atmore AL

 

"Las Vegas" is always the first thing out of my mouth whenever I'm asked about my dream vacation. Just thinking about Las Vegas feels exciting! I've never been, but I can easily imagine what the real experience will be like - the lights, the people, the fast pace, the hotels, the dining, the clubs, the shows, the casinos, and the shopping, at all hours of the day or night! Definitely a dream! I know it would be a complete thrill from moment one (how could it not?!), and I plan on doing it right - from saving enough cash to completely enjoy myself, to researching everything online, to learning a few casino games and gambling strategies! When one does Las Vegas, one should never skimp on cost! Most of us will only get to go once or twice in our lives, and I plan on making my trip count. Experience and lasting memories are so important!  Cathy Conrad  Dartmouth NS Canada

 

My husband and I would first fly out in first class because that's what everyone should do. We would check in to the most expensive suite at the Bellagio over looking the fountains. Then we would catch the Cirque Du Soleil show "O" afterwards we would dine at Emeril's Delmonico Steakhouse and eat the biggest Porterhouse steak there. From there would we would take a limo, again the only way to travel in Vegas, to the Paris Hotel and renew our wedding vows on the top of the Eiffel Tower. Then zip over to the Venetian and take a gondola ride while sipping on champagne. To top off the whole night we would do a little dancing at Rain at the Palms. After a few hours of sleep we would recuperate at The Spa at the Bellagio. Sounds pretty great to me!  Angela Stanley  Purcell OK

 

My girlfriend has never been out of Oregon. I want to surprise her with a vacation to Las Vegas where I will propose marriage to her.  Rocky Bixby  Portland OR

 

Since a young age I have been fortunate enough to travel to places all over the globe, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Fiji, Europe, etc. But at the age of 25 and a married mother of two, I have Never felt the explosive rush of being in Las Vegas! Friends and family have come and gone, but I was never in the right moment to go due to other instances. Family members have been married there. I think the ideal vacation to Vegas would be with my husband. I would love to ride the condoles and play the slots. I love the roulette table and would be eager to learn craps. Coming from one who has adventure the globe and never been to Vegas, the ideal trip for me would be to taste every experience the city has to offer.  Megan Lamond  Sparkill NY

 

My Vegas dream vacation would be to renew my wedding vows in Vegas, and spend a few days with my wonderful husband away from our 3 kids. We don't get much private time and have never been on vacation. We didn't even have a honeymoon, so I would love to renew our vows and have our first honeymoon after 16 years of marriage.  Laura Barnfield  St Catharines ON Canada

 

My Vegas dream vacation would consist of; a beautiful free stay for 4 days at one of your luxurious hotels and casinos for my immediate family and members of my husband's family (5) and my family (4); a 16 hour nanny, for my 7 month old son, throughout the day so my husband and I could enjoy some much needed time alone; a $7000.00 shopping spree for all stores on the Vegas strip; $2000.00 cash to play at your casinos; dinner for all of us for one night at a fancy restaurant, because we know there are so many of those in Vegas; and finally tickets to a live show...anything will do! This would be a dream vacation for our family as it would be a first vacation as a family! It would be fantastic to enjoy a vacation for the first time with both families together! What better destination then the family friendly city of Las Vegas? Nothing would please us more then to treat our family members to a memorable vacation.  Good luck to me!  Stella Longo  Pickering ON Canada

 

My ultimate Las Vegas Dream vacation would be with my boyfriend Gary, to spend 4 days with him in Vegas would be a hoot. Getting dressed for dinner each evening, playing slot machines and seeing a few shows would be the most relaxing holiday I have had.   Pat George  Newmarket ON Canada

 

For me, the best trip in Vegas would be seeing Celine Dion one night and Barry Manilow another night. Spa treatments daily and good healthy food. What a wonderful way to spend time in Las Vegas.  Michele DiCarlo  Louisville KY

 

Las Vegas has so much to offer that any vacation to this exciting destination is truly a dream come true. The perfect place to stay would be the Venetian Resort Hotel Casino! With its world-famous gondola rides in the quarter-mile Grand Canal and 19 different restaurants housing world famous chefs, spending the day at the hotel takes on a whole new meaning! In the early evening after a magnificent meal prepared by the Venetian's famous chef Wolfgang Puck, I would enjoy a stroll down Las Vegas Boulevard and check out "The Strip." Along the South Strip, King Tut's Tomb would definitely be a highlight. Of course, no trip to the "Sin City" would be complete without a visit to the MGM Grand Casino or Caesar's Palace just to experience the electric atmosphere and enjoy world famous entertainers. I might try my hand at a few slot machines just to make the experience complete! The Bellagio Fountain would be a remarkable sight as the lights from the towering hotel are magnified by the arching fountains. How would I top such a delightful experience? I would make sure to visit unique natural wonders such as the Lake Mead and the Grand Canyon. The view of water overlapping desert will be incomparable as I view the rugged mountains on Lake Mead from my kayak. On my hiking trip I might catch a sight of a Desert Bighorn Sheep. The Grand Canyon with its deep valleys and stepped inclines will be a thrill to remember. I would definitely take the opportunity to watch the sunset by the Canyon. Before returning home, I would do a little shopping along the Desert Passage at Aladdin Resort Casino and pick up a few African crafts at the harbor to remind me of my amazing trip.  Trish Gibson Lexington KY

 

The most ideal Vegas trip would be to hop on a red eye flight out of Syracuse NY with my husband of 21 years. I would like to give him back a wonderful stress free vacation on the strip.  No worries about paying for the Hotel or dining.. Just enjoy each other and the wonderful pleasure this town has to offers. You see my husband married me when I was 22 and I had 4 children from a previous marriage. The girls ages were 5,4,3,and 1. Eric has never blink an eye to give my (our) children all the love and support any father would give. He has worked two jobs most of our marriage to raise the girls and put them through college. Now that they are all grown and out of college , I would like to somehow show Eric how much he means to girls and the myself. This trip would be most appreciated by Eric and I and would be a great way to break away from our everyday work routine. What better way to tell someone how much you love them but to give them a Las Vegas Vacation.  Monica Bryant Camden, NY
 
A Vegas Dream Vacation would start out with a delightful airplane trip from Orlando Florida to Las Vegas with first class seats so my husband and I could enjoy a nice meal in un-crowded conditions. Upon arriving in Vegas, we would check into a luxurious hotel and we would enjoy the view and the room. We would toast each other with a good bottle of wine and walk the strip to sightsee all the hotels. Then we would have a marvelous dinner at a great restaurant and go to one of the shows on the strip that we would enjoy. To top it all off, we would go gambling after the show and actually win a jackpot. Ahh, Sweet Dreams! Ruthann Proch  Leesburg FL

 

A limousine would pick my husband and I at the airport in Las Vegas and would deliver us to the Bellagio which I believe is Vegas' most expensive hotel. This would be a once in a lifetime trip so I can dream can't I. Our room would be waiting for us so we could bypass the line-ups at the front counter. The doors would open to this fabulously decorated suite. A vase full of local fresh flowers would be displayed as well as a welcome basket of fruit, beverages, crackers and cheese. It sure would be nice to have a separate bedroom in our living space. We could relax and have a nap. Then we would have a snack from the welcome basket and head down to the casino for awhile before supper.  Arleen Mcconeghy  New-westmnstr  BC  Canada

 

It would be with my husband, the two of us strolling down the street, a nice dinner, a long walk and probably a bit of gambling!  Melanie Gingras  Laval PQ Canada

 

Just once I would like to hit a big slot machine jackpot.  Bryon Shaffer  Du Bois PA

 

Any Las Vegas Vacation would be the best one. Let's face it, after 6 straight months of rain, I'm sick of it. I Need sun!  Las Vegas has sun. I go to the Indian run casinos here and lose my pants. I've never had the pleasure of pulling the handle on a real slot machine. Have Mercy On Me!  Kayleen Considine  Renton WA

 

What could be better than spending a week in Sin City celebrating a less than sinful wedding and reception with family and friends?   Tonya Hutchinson  Rutland VT

 

My husband and I got married June 25, 2005. We had waited so long for that day and we were both so excited to start our lives together as husband and wife. However, my mom and I had done all the planning for the wedding and reception. It was beautiful but we were both very stressed and busy trying to get things perfect. Finally, I heard my cue to start walking down the aisle. As I walked down the aisle, however, I noticed my husband wasn't there waiting for me. So many emotions ran through me; hurt, fear, anger? I thought I was being left at the alter and no one had bothered to tell me! I tried to keep my composure and not burst into tears. When I got to the front, my mom (my matron of honor) realized that with all the confusion, she had forgotten to get my husband before giving me the cue to walk down the aisle. As our wedding day approached, my husband always talked about how much he couldn't wait to see me walk down the aisle in my beautiful wedding dress and that he knew that he would cry. We never got that moment. Instead he was ushered in after I had stood there and waited for a few minutes. We were both confused and embarrassed. Then to top it off, the bishop called me by my middle name and our ceremony was only two minutes long (among other things). I don't blame my mom at all but we really are upset that we didn't have that spectacular moment. My dream vacation would be for my husband and me to get married again on our one year anniversary so we could see each other's faces as I walk down the aisle.  Bethany Raue  Mesa AZ

 

To make my trip a dream vacation I would have to take my husband there for a special occasion of some kind! We would get a wonderful room with a huge jacuzzi tub to relax in together. We would take it some shows while there. We would eat at restaurants that were for adults only (as we would be leaving our 4 children at home!!) I would love to see some of the malls in Las Vegas so this would be a whole day as I've heard they are fantastic! I'm not into gambling however I think we would have to check out the casinos and spend a little cash so that we could at least say we gambled in Vegas!  Dave Winter  Moose Jaw SK Canada

 

The last time I was in Vegas was in 1974 as a graduation gift to myself. I had a blast but with all the new hotels and attractions I can only imagine how much more fun I would have today, especially since I can Legally gamble this time. I'd like to ride a gondola and visit the Eiffel Tower without having to get a passport. I wonder if Vegas has aged better than I have these past 32 years?  D. Henry  Albany GA

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be sunning by a warm waterfall by the pool, seeing shows like "O" every night. Eating great foods, and partying until dawn every night at night clubs with fancy drinks and mini appetizers. A helicopter ride over the Hoover damn and the grand canyon. More fun in the sun by the pool, with a floating bar. Spending time down on Fremont street under the lighted canopy. Oh, I dream of going back to Vegas almost every week!  Crystal Gruetzmacher  Box Elder SD

 

My dream Vegas Dream Vacation is to go to Vegas and renew my vows with my husband. We never had a real wedding and I'd love to get a chance to stand up in front of someone other than a circuit clerk and say my vows with the man that I love.  Amy Harder  Tuscumbia AL

 

I went to Vegas for the first time in 2001!  I stayed at the MGM Grand and NYNY, and saw two Janet Jackson concerts, played the slots, shopped 'til I dropped, had an amazing buffet at Rio, and also got a little tan! The best part was being with my friends, staying out all hours of the night!  I'm from New York but Vegas is Really the "city that never sleeps". I love it! Friendly people, all kinds of people, the craziest fashions, and folks just want to have a good time.  Elizabeth Adams  New York NY

 

I think the dream vacation would be:  Arriving in Vegas and someone standing there waiting to take us to our hotel.  Where we would be staying in the nicest one in town, not to far from all of the entertainment. This trip would include the whole family us and our 3 kids and the friend of my daughters that lives with us. We would have tickets to all the shows in town for us to choose which ones to see and lots of fun stuff for the kids to do. And at night we could check out the casinos while the kids were in there room enjoying TV or resting because they were so tired from all the excitement they had been through out that day.  I would also like the girls to have a little money to go shopping that is what they live for I guess I am not that hard to please I just wished that we were able to afford to go and do what ever it is that we wanted to while on vacation and not have to worry about how much things cost.  Kevin Roe  Newport MI

 

To stay at the Bellagio Hotel and casino and to win at the slots.  Joyce Fox  New Braunfels TX

 

Gambling, shows, food and night life is the dream vacation ever!  Time with the family is time well spent. Its going to be the ultimate experience for my family. Thank you.  Margaret Ocampo  Richmond Hill ON Canada

 

My ideal Las Vegas Vacation would be the most memorable time of my life. My fiance and I would begin our day with a luxury limousine ride to our Intimate Lady of The Lake Yacht Wedding in Las Vegas, with a few of our family, friends and most important, our son. We then would spend the rest of our time together touring the city meeting some of the great people, and dining in some of the finest restaurants. We would end our vacation with memories, pictures, and stories that are sure to last us a lifetime.  Robyn  Yelton  Rutherfordton NC

 

My husband, two sons and I arrive by plane early in the morning for a five day stay. We have a room in the pyramid building at the Luxor hotel and a whole day ahead of us to explore. After visiting King Tut's museum we wander the shops at the hotel. That evening we see the Blue Man Group. The next day is spent poolside, just lounging and relaxing. We don't want to get too tired, after all, this is a vacation! The evening we dine at the Pharaoh's Pheast Buffet. What fun to make our own pizzas at the pizza station! The Star Trek Experience takes up most of the next day. Picture with a Klingon anyone? Of course! Then we make a quick trip into Circus-Circus for some acrobats and magicians. We love roller coasters so we go into the Adventuredome and ride the indoor loop-to-loop. That night, the Tournament of Kings delights us with the show of arms and the spectacular stunts. The third day we visit the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay. We stop at New York New York to ride the outdoor roller coaster and then move on to the Mirage Aquarium. On the fourth day we spend the morning by the pool. That afternoon we visit the Titanic exhibit, eat supper at Canter's Deli at Treasure Island and then stay for the Sirens of Treasure Island Show and then we watch the fountains at the Bellagio. On the fifth day, sadly, we have to prepare to leave...but we still have time to jump into the pool one more time and visit the lions at the MGM Grand. Back at the hotel, we grab our luggage and head for the airport. It's been a fun five days!  Kim Hoelzl  Thamesford ON Canada

 

I would love to have unlimited money to spend at the shops and on the slots. I'd go to Paris and have crepes, then dessert at New York New York. My husband and I would stay at Mandalay Bay in a large suite and have a break from the kids.  Shawna Harpole  San Diego CA

 

We could start on the airplane, it is a short flight, but champagne would make it dreamy. There are so many lovely hotels and rooms in Las Vegas that we would be happy almost anywhere. A room with a view out to the desert and mountains would make it the most special place. We would have such a hard time choosing where to eat our meals, but quiet, dark romantic places would be the most dreamy. All day long we can walk up and down the strip looking at all the special sights in each of the hotels. A dream could not be any better than all this. Sherry Kinnear  Newmarket ON Canada

 

To visit Caesar's Palace and shop til I drop. Then spend time with my husband sight seeing and eating.  Kristine Brown  Lloydminster, Alberta Canada

 

I have not traveled anywhere very far from home. I think a trip to Las Vegas would be the ultimate first time trip anyone could ever take. I would love to be the lucky winner.  Judy Bartlett  Saint John NB Canada

 

My trip would start with 1st class airfare to the city that never sleeps. Then staying at a first class hotel in a magnificent suite. Then I would like to ride every roller coaster in Vegas!  Susan Miller  Sunnyvale CA

 

My husband and I did not ever get a honeymoon. We are old enough now to take a vacation and really enjoy ourselves. My favorite thing to do is go somewhere really fun and interesting with the man I have been married to for the last 35 years. I believe the place for us is a never sleeping, fun filled stay at Las Vegas. Maybe even time to renew our vows at one of the numerous chapels I have heard of. What a great time I am sure that we be for both of us. I have heard the sights and sounds are exciting, but we also love to gamble, so that part of the fun would just be a plus. All my family have been and I would like the opportunity to fulfill not only my wish, but my husbands as well. the last 35 years have been great, but what a way to start the next 35 years, sightseeing, gambling, shopping, eating, and maybe even a marriage ceremony. What fun!  Sharon Swenson  Tucson AZ

 

One year ago tomorrow, I had brain surgery for the removal of a Meningioma tumor. It has truly been a life changing event. I am doing better than a year ago, but I have a far way to go yet. I am still in a wheelchair ,at times can use a cane to walk some. Who would have ever thought I would be in the condition I am today. In May I go back to the Mayo clinic in Minn. then I go again in June for more testing and appointments. I may have to have the Gamma Knife done sometime this summer, to try and kill the 5-10% of the tumor remaining. I really would love to go to Vegas, I am on a very limited budget, two boys in college, one at home, husband, and I now get Social Security Disability. A trip like this would be a wonderful distraction from all we have been through this year.  Kari Newman  Calumet MI

 

My husband and I would like to go to Las Vegas on our 10th wedding anniversary to renew our wedding vows at a Las Vegas wedding chapel. However, I would like this wedding to be different from our first wedding. I would like for my husband to wear a black suit and I would like to wear a red gown with sequins - something that would be match the fun and excitement of Las Vegas. In honor of the Las Vegas wedding, I would like to have an Elvis Presley impersonator and Marilyn Monroe impersonator as our witnesses. And then spend our 2nd honeymoon in Las Vegas enjoying all that Las Vegas has to offer.  Tricia Bueltel  Canby MN

 

I would like to renew our marriage vows where we got married the first time ten years ago in Las Vegas! But do it a little bit better this time around, we deserve it. Not that the first time wasn't great but it could have been a little classier with all the great places they have in Vegas to get married at and honeymoon at, you couldn't ask for a better place to do it in!  Susan Thompson  Merrill WI

 

I've been to Las Vegas a couple of times before, but both times I went broke very early in my trip (not because of gambling). My dream Vegas vacation would be to finally have lunch or dinner at a real restaurant (not McDonald's), to go to a show and to have enough money to have some fun the Whole time.  Kenisha Brown  San Pablo CA

 

A dream vacation to Vegas would consist of me and my husband visiting the main attractions of the city. Holding hands as we take in the sights. Enjoying each others company. And on our last night in Vegas I would love to dine with my husband over candlelight. Finish the night off listening to our favorite romantic songs, dancing slowly close together, something we haven't done in such a long time and ending the night in each other's arms.  Melody Akemon  Cordova TN

 

It really just like dream to visit Las Vegas, but it comes true, when I reached there with my wife, beautiful city of world, just like heaven, its beyond imagination from both of us. We spent our time at Nevada, beautiful place in Las Vegas, its beautiful and we have not faced any disturbance, like a dream, we spent 6 days there, together visited all nearby places hills snow, cozy restaurants, enjoyed these 6 days like we spent all our life there, we came back after a week and feeling like to cry because we don't want to go back and we don't wants to leave that place like heaven.  Sanjeev Kumar  London UK

 

My husband and I were on stand-by to fly to Venice, Italy for our honeymoon. The flight was overbooked so we could not go. My husband looked at the available flights and there was one going to Las Vegas. He told me that since he could not take me to Venice, he would take me to the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas. My husband loves to gamble and I do not. So I was hesitant about the trip. We checked into the Venetian; the most romantic hotel in the world. Our suite was amazing. I was keeping all of the money we had since I was nervous about him gambling. He asked me if he could have $5 for a coke and candy bar. I said ok. He came back to the room about 20 minutes later with a giant cup full of dollar coins. I was rather upset he did not have a coke or candy bar. He said he was so excited he forgot to go buy one. I gave him $5 out of the $350 he brought back and he left again. Thirty minutes later he returned with another cup full of money, but no coke or candy. Although we were $650 richer I would not let him leave again. We spent the winnings on a romantic gondola ride, wonderful dinners, a Boston concert, and massages at the luxurious spa at Mandalay Bay. We had drinks on the roof top of the Rio Hotel which had a beautiful view. We ate dinner outside watching the Bellagio fountains, then walked through the breath taking conservatory there. We went for some excitement and took the roller coaster on the outside of the Stratosphere, very scary. Then took pictures with all the stars in Madame Tussads Wax museum.   Ellen Harris  Atlanta GA

 

I would go to a 3-card poker table and hit 3-of-a-kind, move to another table and hit a straight flush, go to a blackjack table and win $1000+ go to dinner at a restaurant in the casino for a great meal then to bed. Repeat 3 days running.  Jimmy Coleman  Shelby AL

 

Dear Mr. Reed:  Las Vegas is a place I have not been to yet. so let me start by saying I would hit the casino in style dressed up like a million bucks drinking the finest beer in house. I would play a few games then hit the strip check out some clubs and bars drink some more beer over here in Nova Scotia the beer is 5% so I can handle a few more of the American ones. At the end of this long night of drinking beer and playing slots I would go up to my room in the hotel and drink some more beer and watch TV.  Sounds like a great trip.  Peter Blendheim  Halifax NS Canada

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be for my family of 5 to travel first class to Vegas, and stay for 4 nights at the Paris, Paris hotel. My husband and I visited there, and it was such an awesome place! We would take the kids to the CBS studios, to see the fountains at the Bellagio, to Treasure Island to see the neat show, and definitely to see Circ De Solile, any of them (as long as they were appropriate for children).  Peggie Scott  Camas WA

 

My dream vacation would be meeting all of my closest friends from around the United States and having the ultimate weekend getaway. (I have approximately 6 others I would love to reunite with at one time.) Remember "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas". We're always ready to take the oath" as soon as we hit town. Vegas is a wonderful place to stay active, reunite with old friends and party "till the cows come home"...hee hee! I have close friends in Ohio, Wisconsin and California and West Virginia that love to get together in Las Vegas to pick up where we left off. There is so much to do, that no one is left out. Whether it be sun by the pool, or go see an exciting show or concert or just walk around the unique shops and buy souvenirs; everyone is leaves happy after a weekend in Las Vegas. It's truly one of our favorite "Girls Weekend Getaway" spots. Las Vegas is also a wonderful place to experience the food. Sometimes we have a few that actually want to watch their diets. Then there are others that want to enjoy the spectacular cuisine that's only available in such a diverse place as Las Vegas. Dinners are magnificent and all leave satisfied and content. I look forward to seeing all of my friends in Las Vegas soon. The ultimate trip would include a concert with Wayne Newton or perhaps Barbra Streisand or Celine Dion. All are very talented and Vegas is lucky to have secured their talents. Until the reality comes true, I'll dream of my "Ultimate Girls Weekend Out" getaway trip. See you on the Strip or the Fremont Experience!  Sincerely, Cathy Gordon  San Marcos CA

 

My husband wanted to have our wedding in Vegas but our family wouldn't hear of it we had to stay here on Manitoba an shell out 4 a big traditional wedding it was our dream 2 go to Vegas on our honeymoon but after paying for a big wedding the trip got postponed. Now we have a 9 month old son and money is tight so paying 4 a trip is still out of the question but still our "dream vacation" , My husband and I would have no bones about taking that honeymoon we never got to take and renew our vows gamble a bit, take in a show see the light and do what we had planned from the start....just a little late.  Chantel Teichrow  Dauphin MB  Canada

 

The best Vegas vacation is getting married in a wonderful chapel, staying at a great hotel, taking a helicopter ride to the canyon, having dinner at the tower, then walking hand in hand with your new spouse back to your hotel where you play a few slots and go to your room with an extra few dollars in your pocket. then close the door and have a great night with the one you love...that's the best vacation. I just had mine on April 1, 2006 would love to go again...thanks Vegas for making my dreams come true.  Alma Jones  Wallkill NY

 

At least 3 day, 4 nights in a luxury hotel.  Free show tickets.  Free meals.  Free gambling credit--maybe $300.  Nice pool.  Debbra Griffis  Apple Valley MN

 

Naturally, my Vegas Dream Vacation starts with a first class flight. I have never flown outside of coach, so forgive me if I romanticize the extra legroom, the champagne, cream puffs and berries that I imagine reside there. By my side, my fiancé Bill would be studying for yet another teacher's exam. He's a new teacher who loves his job, but doesn't get much time off-between earning his credentials and teaching high school science. When gourmet chocolate arrives, he lays the books down and our dream vacation is officially underway. At the airport, a luxury car has been rented in our name. I have never been to Las Vegas, so naturally, will be dazzled by the lights and glitter that I have heard about. Luckily, in the car there is a top of the line digital camera for us to keep, and I am in Technicolor heaven as I snap away at our surreal surroundings. Once we arrive at our Hotel, which is the most tranquil, clean, Zen-like space in town, we enjoy a great workout and then get massaged and scrubbed, wrapped and fluffed until we glow like the neon signs outside. It's dusk, and we take in a mesmerizing dinner. The Hotel menu is perfect for me, full of fresh fruit, vegetables and sushi. My fiancé will relish the opportunity to indulge in gourmet steak and seafood entrees. Back in our room, a perfect slice of chocolate layer cake awaits his return. And that's day one! Call it "transitioning" (oozing) into vacation mode. And tomorrow...tickets to Circus Solely (never been), Bill can introduce me to those funny machines that spill out money, and I will need to get some shopping done. After all, I want to look my most Vegas Dreamy when we (finally) say those vows.  Micheen Levee  Carmel CA

 

My ultimate Vegas vacation would be to bring my mom, 4 year old daughter and 3 year old son and get married to my fiance` of seven years. Finally making our family complete and spending our honey-moon with our family in Vegas.  Malisa Buchanan  Merrillville IN

 

Las Vegas shows its sophisticated side with winemaker dinners and elegant food and wine pairing events. besides gambling one can also go skydiving, helicopter rides, motor racing at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway or horseback riding through canyons. I would love it as it is a dream for me, yet to sing a song along with my husband to watch those beautiful little white water rafting down the Colorado river. Its all a dream isn't it? there is no where in the world all this together at one place. so Las Vegas is the best. Rashmi Bhagchandani  Accra  GH

That would be the most awesome thing in the world to us!  Thanks for the consideration.  Amanda Chapa  Houston TX

 

Lots of fun and relaxation and forgetting how sick I've been for the past 3 years.  Rose Sarich  Spruce Grove  Canada

 

I loved Vegas right from the beginning. I can still see myself running from casino to casino with my bucket of quarters, the entertainment is to die for, the excitement is electrifying and the pools are out of this world everywhere, the food superb. It's better than being at a resort. I dream of Vegas and I have to keep going every year that I can afford it. My husband and I talk about other places and we always come back to Vegas. Each time is more exciting than the first. The dream place would be to stay at Caesar's Palace and meet with Celine and come back with some American money. What else would you want out of a holiday, that's something you would talk about for years to come.  Michelle McDowell  Gravenhurst Canada

 

My fiance and I have always wanted to go to Vegas. We would love to go to just get married.  Yul Lee  Houston TX
