No other city has captured the imagination of so many for so long. Las Vegas is the quintessential city of bright lights, where anything can happen. The perfect day in such a fascinating city would include a visit to the most famous sign in the world...a sign that invites one to come on in and have the time of their life. There is an endless amount of appeal and glamour in the new Las Vegas, but there is also a lot of history. One could visit the Neon Graveyard and stand in awe of the ghostly neon signs of yesteryear that tower over the dust in a lot on Fremont Street. One can still see the original pool at the Flamingo, the casino that started it all. The Little Church of the West, a major piece of Vegas history, is still standing, just as you enter the city. A slew of major movie stars have been married there, dating back to the 1940s. Though changes are happening everyday in Las Vegas, there is still plenty to see of a time that will always be thought of as the epitome of the Rat Pack, showgirls, gambling and always a good time.  Emily Steele  Indianapolis IN

 

Visit as many casinos as possible! Whoever said that Hollywood was the entertainment capital of the world is wrong!  It's Las Vegas!  I would visit as many casinos as possible--all the glitter, sounds, people, shows. You can be totally glamorous in Las Vegas even if you're a simple housewife at home. The best part is, you don't even have to gamble to enjoy Las Vegas! Everywhere you look there are things to do and places to see. Ride a rollercoaster; cruise on a gondola; be attacked by pirates; be serenaded by Barry Manilow; see the circus -- who needs to go any place else. After all, you can see New York and Paris in Las Vegas. To top it off, you can be treated like royalty and eat to your heart's content. With all that Las Vegas has to offer, why would you need to go any place else?  Christie Rinck  Dade City FL

 

To see Las Vegas for the first time with my husband. Would love to get remarried in a small chapel, have a romantic dinner seeing Las Vegas lit up at night with champagne and awaken to go sightseeing and see Harrah's antique autos and the Hoover dam. would have to try a huge one dollar machine and play roulette once. photos galore of course!  Charlotte Foster  Groton CT

 

To go to Vegas and win big so I can help my children and grandchildren.  Martha Brannan  Newton KS

 

My Vegas dream vacation begins with limo service taking me to the Long Beach Airport to board a private jet for my 1 hour flight to the ultimate dream city, Las Vegas. I would then have a limo waiting for my arrival from Mr. Wynn himself. Upon my arrival at the Wynn Resort, I would immediately be escorted to my "Tower Suite Salon" with my private pool, a bottle of Cristal Champagne and a box of Ethel M's dark chocolates with almonds. After I was settled, I would call a room service for a small meal and a martini. I would instruct the spa to send up someone in 2 hours to give me a massage in my private massage room off from my foyer. I would then relax a while before hitting the slots and also be picture ready when I hit The Jackpot!  The next day I would go on a shopping with a personal stylist and purchase a whole new wardrobe. I would be accompanied by my 83 year old mom who would experience this "Dream Las Vegas Vacation" with me. You only live once!  Wendy Williams  La Mirada CA

 

I would arrive on the strip early to walk around and watch the Bellagio fountains dance. I would window shop at Caesar's palace, see the dolphins at the mirage, gamble at the Venetian, take pictures in front of the sphinx, eat at Aladdin's buffet (yum!) see the newest cirque du sole, hear Celine Dion sing, play craps for the first time, eat krispy creme donuts with coffee and play blackjack all night.  Anitha Papudesi  Diamond Bar CA

 

Love Vegas.  Martha Brannan  Newton KS

 

To me Las Vegas is my dream world gorgeous lights casinos I would love to get there some day if I only could get a date LOL oh well only a dream I seen the shows on TV I bet it is beautiful in real life I heard it is cheap to eat at those casinos too I am a single waitress trying to make maybe someday the thrill will be real.  Elsie Sutton  Washington MO

 

My dream vacation in Las Vegas would be for my husband & I to renew our wedding vows in the city where we eloped 30 years ago. We were unable then (due to a 3-day weekend and hotels being sold out) to stay the night, driving all the way back to Southern California. I would love to have a nice simple ceremony with both of our children and a few other family members with us and then stay at a nice room for a few nights, maybe a nice dinner for the group. Thank you for the opportunity.  Mary Curtis  Kearney MO

 

Flying on a trapeze with a Cirque act, Singing along side Celine Deon, Dancing with a hot celeb, Wake Up!  Bring your dreams and make it happen! Only in Vegas!  Tammy Guthrie  Saint Petersburg FL

 

I have long dreamed of seeing the city lights and casinos and shows of Las Vegas. At age 64, I am currently undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. When all of my chemo and radiation is finished and I have my life back, I would like to see Las Vegas. The ideal vacation would be to see an ice skating show, play some keno machines and be pampered at a Spa. A room with jacuzzi in it would be frosting on my cake.  Margaret Older  Wolf Creek OR

 

My husband was forced to move to Missouri his senior year of High school from Vegas. I have never been able to go, and because of his job, we have not been able to take a vacation since our honeymoon almost 6 years ago. We now have two small children that I am a full-time mom to, and my husband is out of town about 6 months out of the year. I am left to take care of me and our beautiful children alone. I really need a vacation! I want someone else to fix breakfast lunch and dinner for me. I have never had a pedicure, a massage or facial, so that would be on my list of things for us to do. We really need a vacation. This year has been very tramatic with two deaths in the family, having to sell our home and getting our finances back on track. We have started the hard process of starting over. My husband and I are more in love now than ever, and I would love to start over in a big way. My dream vacation to Vegas would be. Arriving in Las Vegas in the evening, hopping in our limo and driving to our dream hotel. We grab a bite to eat, go do some slots and dance the night away. The next day would be filled with swimming, shopping and delicious meals. We then go see Cirque and then maybe Tom Jones. We would also take time to visit where he grew up, his old house, his old friends that he hasn't seen since high school and visit all the little places that mean so much to him. I hear all of his stories of his childhood and can't wait to be able to see these places.  Mary Crace  Springfield MO

 

Flying into Vegas, being delivered to the hotel, where there are plenty of lot machines sounds great. I'd like to stay in a hotel where I could play till the wee hours, and go upstairs to bed. No traveling to a hotel late at night when I'm tired. Wake up and start over!  Patricia Weckerly  Shinglehouse PA

 

My best Vegas trip would be to go with my sister. We could gamble a bit, relax and have a few drinks. We have never been out of our state before, so it would be so exciting! We recently had four deaths in the family including our mom. And I think this would really help my sister see that life can get better!  Thanks for the contest and the chance to win.  Holly Whitlock  Virginia Beach VA

 

My ideal Las Vegas Trip would be to fly down with my infant daughter to take in shopping, shows and visit my friend Carol who just recently moved to Las Vegas. I haven't been to Las Vegas since July 2001 and had a wonderful time, I would love to fly down with my daughter for a breather from the day to day hassles.  Frances Klotz  Anchorage AK

 

Living Vegas would be to brake Vegas, and what better way to do it then to live like the "Wynn"! From owning about half the strip to dreaming and making a block of paradise, to live like the Wynn would to live Vegas. I'm pretty sure that a man with that caliber name in Vegas never has to wait in line anywhere, gets treated better than VIP, stays in the most lavished suites of any hotel, and beyond that would never even have to spend a dime due to reputation. It's living like a rock star without the press. Instead of limos and fancy cars, why not just jump helipad to helipad a top casino floors in a helicopter reassuring yourself once again how much higher you are of status in Vegas. Sipping top shelf wines with your friends while having a sushi chef make you a cheeseburger regardless if it's not on the menu. You can always say you've been around the world when in Vegas but how many times can you say that the world has stopped for you. The Las Vegas strip where winning is being the actual "Wynn!"  Ryan Bobadilla  Irvine CA

 

To gamble and see Wayne Newton and to win big money.  Bill Huffmaster  Olympia WA

 

My dream LV vacation would be first class airline seats, picked up by limo at the airport, and booked into a spacious suite at one of LV's finest hotels with VIP perks. A little gambling, a lot of sightseeing and a couple of really special shows, including Barry Manilow (for my wife). And let's not forget some fine dining. Of course, to make this absolutely perfect, all the above would be totally free!  Bobby Phillips  Kings Mountain NC

 

To win a Vegas Dream Vacation would definitely be a dream come true. Would love to start off by flying first class! Land in Vegas and be whisked off in a limo to the most luxurious hotel there is. Be booked into an awesome suite where everything is comped! Head down to the casino and try my hand at some slots. Maybe stroll over to the roulette table and throw some money on my favorite numbers while being served drink after drink. Once I tire of winning, I would like to change into my bathing suit and head to the pool for some fun and sun. After that, I would go up to my suite and clean up for dinner. Somewhere fancy where I could mingle with the stars that I am always reading about. After that, we (including the celebrities) pile into limos and hit up the happening nightclubs where we party till dawn! All in all, that would be a perfect day! Then I wake up!  Patti Acord  Akron OH

 

Saturday, chillin at the Wynn, sunning, swimming and sipping poolside. A couples massage is followed by filet mignon, lobster and champagne in our Salon Suite. We hang the "Do not disturb" sign and re-create our honeymoon.  Sunday, wife counts cards at blackjack table. I don't count strokes at Wynn's golf course. We Sunday brunch, recycle her blackjack winnings at Cartier, and sample Chef Boulud's wares. Monday is Bellagio time. Botanical Gardens, Gallery of Fine Art and Chihuly's glass nourish our spirit. The poker table finds me holdin', foes foldin'. Braised rabbit at Le Cirque is followed by clubbing at Light.  Tuesday, we limo to Fremont Street. 'Flyin' Fiddles' 'Divine Divas'. Neonopolis. Binion's Horseshoe brings good luck. The Lady Luck Casino brings more. Our wallets bulge. Wednesday, we chopper to the Canyon on the Day Dreamer, then tour the Mojave on ATV. Now sore, Bellagio's Lastone Massage is in order. Our sightseeing day concludes, where else' Supping at the Stratosphere. Thursday, Mandalay Bay calls. Our comped Parlor Suite is ready. The Shark Reef is amazing. Poolside dining promotes grazing. Lazy rivers, cabanas and watching shows from the Island Stage complete a do-nothing day.  Friday, adrenalin is needed. A watery half-day at Wet 'n' Wild, sampling Vegas' coasters and bungee jumping at Circus Circus starts it, and an evening going nuts on the Stratosphere rides ends it. Saturday, Marquee Suite at MGM beckons. Buffet covers morning AND afternoon meal. Copperfield matinee, Wolfgang Puck dinner, and Cirque Du Soleil satisfy our entertainment Jones and our palate. We do Studio 54 till the wee hours.  Sunday, can't leave yet, must break bank. I win $10 million on slots, and book a suite at Bellagio for the next year. I call boss, tell him I'm dead, and he should drop dead, too.  John Tracy  Shoreline WA

 

My dream vacation would be to go to Vegas with my fiance and closest family and friends. I would love to get married there. I have over $100,000.00 in student loans right now. I just graduated and wont be able to afford our own wedding for a long time. I would love to marry him now in Vegas in stead of 10 years from now when I am finished paying back my loans.  Diana Sanchez  Hamden CT

 

My ultimate vacation to Vegas would be just to be able to go there and do whatever I wanted and relax!! Such a great city and so much to do! My husband and I have had a couple of really tough last few years. My mother and father in law both died of heart attacks unexpectedly within 10 months of each other, then 2 months later my husband was beat up and almost died of a brain injury. 2 months after that, my Mom died unexpectedly after routine surgery, and then her mother, my grandmother died a week after her!  We have not been able to afford any vacations or been able to get away together since. I would love to be able to go and just forget about all the heartaches just for a few days and relax. I'm so thankful that my husband has recovered fully 2 brain surgeries later and he would Love to go to Vegas. We've never been there and we have always wanted too. If I could win a trip to take him to Vegas, I would be so happy! Thanks for listening!  Jackie Bolster  Claremont MNs

 

Having been a caregiver to my sweet hubby 24/7 for the past 4 years...he is only 64 and has Parkinson's disease and dimensa had to..6 months ago I realized I couldn't take care of him any longer and had to admit him to nursing home.  I would love to go to spa to be pampered, dine luxurious, win at slots, (nursing home costs are $7000 a month) and just laugh and have fun. laughs and fun are far and few between.  Eleanor Greenly  Levittown PA

 

I love dream vacations.  Roger Pollex  Houston TX

 

I would love to get away, with my husband of nearly 33 years,& spend some quality time, away from the stress of our jobs,& away from our 32 year old daughter, who still lives at home!  Not looking to gamble---just get away from the everyday grind,& let someone else do the cooking, cleaning up, etc...,for a change {Just Getting A Second Wind & A 2nd honeymoon---never even had a 1st!} thanx!  Tomi Jones  Newport NC

 

Since I have never been to Vegas before, I imagine my dream Vegas vacation to be me and all of my friends going there for a weekend. We would check out all the cool shows, and maybe gamble a bit. But mostly just hanging out together and enjoying ourselves. We could hang by the pool and cruise around to see what all the wonderful things Vegas has to offer.  Rachel Helms  Rock Hill SC

 

The splendor of the Wynn is the focus of any visit to LV. The glimmer of the shinning lights in the pitch black night is like a dream of walking down a rainbow with a pot of gold at the end. Las Vegas is surely a true dream within the mind of anyone who can imagine the glamour of stardom happening to them. Vegas and only in Vegas can this become a reality for the everyday person of this world.  Al Summer  Lliburn GA

 

My dream trip to Las Vegas would start with being met at the airport by a limo and to have one at our disposal during our stay. I would like to stay at the Paris hotel, in a suite with a view of the Bellagio fountains. I would like to see "KA" at MGM and take my friend to the NASCAR Driving Experience. Lots of money for gambling and dining would be nice also.  Diane Freeman  Macomb IL

 

I would land in Las Vegas in Marquis Jet and a limousine would be waiting to whisk me off to the MGM Grand Hotel where they will be a lineup of men in tuxedos leading me into the hotel. I will be playing all the slot machines and tables and will win a million dollars. Then, I will hop back into my limousine and buy a house and live in Las Vegas forever!  Natalie Krall  Munhall PA

 

Free and Fabulous! Get to see and experience a little bit of Everything!  Cherrie Henkle  Fort Wayne IN

 

To go to Vegas with friends and family and stay at the Mandalay Bay.  Carl Sallee  Marysville WA

 

I want to go to Vegas, I have never had a honeymoon!  Susan Smoaks  Mt Pleasant FL

 

My dream would be for me and my husband and five children to be able to spend time in Las Vegas, in the best hotel room over looking the strip. Of course we would need adjoining rooms. We would go out and have a meal to die for then off to see a live show. We would have enough money to take our kids where ever they wanted and us parents could gamble til our hearts content. We would be taken around Las Vegas on a Tour to see the sights, maybe even a ride in the sky. This would be a stressless dream come true and so needed. As we do have five children... We don''t get to go places like this and this would be a blessing.  Lorraine Waite  Byron GA

 

I'd see David Copperfield, The Blue Man Group and Wayne Newton before going shopping, to the spa and, finally, hitting the town's hottest night spots.  Nicole Gately  Westfield IN

 

Las Vegas lives in my unconscious, as seen through decades of movies and television and stories. It is a city of fun, glamour, excitement and legend. That is the Las Vegas I want to visit. Dropping a coin in the slot as I exit the plane sees those wheels spinning and the heart rate rising. Driving down the sea of lights in a vintage Cadillac convertible with the sounds of the classic headliners playing, and breathing the hot Nevada air, I turn into my hotel and hand the keys to the valet. In the hotel casino there are beautiful waitresses, showgirls in grand costumes and a fresh cocktail in my hand when ever I need it. Rolling dice, placing bets and pulling on the bandits arm in a magic city where time stands still, I never sleep. Tony Bennett in town and Wayne Newton's show and a their gracious welcome remind me of what was and is Las Vegas. Every show imaginable and shopping for every taste, boggles my mind. The old strip draws me for a night where the romance of the past is still present for me. The new casinos leave me in awe. It all ends too soon, but my pockets aren't empty and I am not tired. I am rejuvenated when I get on board that plane home. Ready to return at the first opportunity.  Tim Glazner  Knoxville TN

 

My dream vacation in Las Vegas would be to enjoy some shows in venues where Sinatra, Dean Martin and other legends have molded the greatness of Las Vegas. It would feel like being able to touch the past. I dream of seeing the crazy hotels' architecture, and of course an evening at Trader Vic's. I would sleep as little as possible for the first days there to see as many casinos and hotels as possible. I would wake up early and start taking pictures of the casinos and hotels. I would like to take hundreds of pictures to never forget about it. Then I would go back at the hotel, enjoy a nice breakfast with my husband and start the sightseeing day. I would want to hear about all the entertainers who performed in which venues. I would probably need a week off at home to recover from the sleep deprivation since I would be afraid to miss something amazing if I slept too much in Las Vegas!  Lucie Thomas  Montreal PQ Canada

 

It would be so much fun and a dream vacation to go to a place where no one sleeps but there is something going on at all hours of the night where you can see stars in one setting it would be like visiting one step to heaven.  Diane Miller  Richmond OH

 

The most ideal Las Vegas Trip would be one in which my hotel room over looks the main strip, has a gorgeous pool with bar, gym, massage therapists on hand, 24 hour gambling a cute gift shop. My group would partake in the Hotel offered as well as go to local restaurants, shops and shows there would be very little time left for sleep...but on vacation in Las Vegas who's looking to get much sleep!  Valerie  Mclean  Westbury NY

 

A great Las Vegas vacation would include a different show each night; a fly over trip of the Grand Canyon; some golf; some casino fun; a houseboat trip on Lake Mead all with family and friends.  Raymond Lee  Monroe Twp  NJ

 

My dream vacation in Las Vegas would be- the 4 of us- for the first time in our lives to vacation together- me, my husband, our son 19 and my step son 25. We have never went on a vacation together. Only because Michael's mom used to keep him from us when he was young- although now- all of us are friends. But it would be a dream come true to have our two sons together in an exciting city. Do you think u can really make this dream come true- I would really appreciate it- something family oriented- a show dinner- dancing- whatever- just as long as we are all together. Thank you so much hope to hear from you.  Cindy Billups  Philadelphia PA

 

It would be a dream come true. I have heard about how truly wonderful it is in Vegas. I would also get an opportunity to see my crush and favorite singer of all time, Barry Manilow. The lights, camera and action! Life just can't get any sweeter!   Pat Frederick  Blandinsville IL

 

To stay 2 weeks at one of Las Vegas beautiful casino hotels. Dine 3 meals a day at their fine dining rooms. To play at the table games and slot machine of my choice. To set and talk to the friendly bartenders at the sports bar and bet. To view the night light in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Now that's a dream vacation baby. It's Vegas.  Gerald Johnson  Gulf Shores AL

 

My dream vacation to Las Vegas, is to be pampered. a great room, and room service. Wonderful resteraunts,and shows. I have wanted to go there all of my adult life. Struck by severe Rheumatoid Arthritis, and then Breast cancer, has taken the wind out of my sails. And kept me close to home. It would definitely be a dream of a lifetime to take this off of my to-do list. In another couple of years, I will be unable to walk, and the pain will be too much to travel. Life is short, live it to the fullest!!. I am single after 28 years, and looking forward to kicking up my heels with a girlfriend or two. Or maybe my two daughters.  Patricia Phillips  Centralia IL

 

Take a limo from airport to Mandalay Bay. Check in and call spa to book a 1/2 day spa treatment. Buy tickets for show to see Barry Manilow or current show. Take a day to visit Valley of Fire, Hoover dam, and Red Rock Canyon. At night, visit the Freemont Street Experience. One evening have early dinner, just after dark at the outside cafe at the Paris hotel and watch the water show at the Bellagio. Go to Green Valley Ranch on Sunday for their all day brunch and enjoy the crab legs and all the other good food. Take a helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon . Finally, take a whole day to go shopping at the various outlet malls in or around Vegas. Last but not least, take about $1000 and going gambling from hotel to hotel.   Andrea Walker  Stone Mtn GA

 

The limo would pick my family and I up and our house and take us to the airport; where first-class tickets to Las Vegas would be waiting. We would be greeted by limo in Vegas, taken to our luxury hotel and given gift certificates to cover all of our meals and hotel expenses. We would get spending money for shopping at the mall and for gambling. We would also get tickets to Celine Dion's show - front row of course. Can't wait!   Mary Stopp  Richmond BC Canada

 

The best Las Vegas dream vacation would include me and my fiancee, waking up early to get to a chapel and get an Elvis impersonator to marry us. After that of course, Las Vegas wouldn't be without a day of gambling. To top off the day, dinner at a 5 star restaurant at one of the casino. Followed by more gambling.  Angele Beauvais  Timmins ON Canada

Beverley Yu  Markham ON Canada

 

Peace and quiet from the children one who is 10 and has problems and a 3 year old too. It would bring my husband great joy to spend money on himself and not worry.  Leslie Miceli  Flushing NY

 

It would be my dream to go to Las Vegas with my husband. we were married feb.14,2004 and adopted a set of twins (2yrs.old) and didn't get to take a honeymoon, priorities first. he has been there a few times himself and always speaks of us going together one day. it would be a dream come true for both of us. we currently are not able to take any type of trip or vacation due to other things going on. he is an over the road driver and is gone 4-6 weeks at a time, I am a stay at home mom. if we were chosen it would make a dream come true for the both of us and be the alone time we could use as it hasn't happened since we were married.  Thanks, Deborah Sweazy  Kingsland GA

 

I would go to every casino and try to win some bucks to help me fix my garden. Then
hungry and thirsty I would go to Reno and eat different foods. Francine Jones  Camarillo CA

 

This would be a dream vacation getaway for me and my husband. We have five children including triplets who are 3, and have never been on vacation ever. We barely have enough money for food so Las Vegas would be such a wonderful dream for us to get away. The lights, the shows, the tourist attractions - everything would be a dream come true!  Jennifer Tower  Scituate MA

 

My dream vacation would be my husband and myself, with No Kids (we have 5) acting like fools and gambling the night away then going to our suite, hopping into the jacuzzi, sipping wine, eating chocolate covered strawberries and whatever else we want without having to share, and just enjoying time together as husband and wife rather than mom and dad for just a little while. Our anniversary is coming up and I will be out of town for that working and he will be at home working and when I get back on that Friday, my inlaws will be here and then school will be out for summer, so unless we actually won a trip or the money to take a trip as an incentive, our lives will be wrapped around what the kids and the rest of the family want us to do. The joys of family life.  Amy Moore  North Richland Hills TX

 

Oh this is such an easy question! I would love to stay in one of the larger suites at the Venetian. canyon ranch spa for a day of pampering. then off to dinner at Emeril Lagasse's Delmonico steakhouse. they have bonein steak and shrimp scampi that is a must! a show or two, a day of seeing the sights in each hotel. from the shark tank to the tiger exhibit, what could be better? oh yes, a limo for the stay so I don't have to personally fight the traffic. I love Las Vegas, can you tell?  Deidre Chaney  Fairfield CA

 

Anywhere.  Jessica Erny  Mandeville LA

 

We were in Las Vegas over 20 years ago and it was one of the best vacations we ever had in our life and would love to take two other members of our family, to see Las Vegas, from coming from the desert with nothing but darkness and to see all those beautiful lights, to see all the gamblers, going to church and putting poker chips in the collection basket, to the beautiful shows like no other in the world, the excitement, the beauty, the great food. Las Vegas one of the greatest vacation spots in the world and would love to see it again and allow other members of our family to witnesses and enjoy Las Vegas also.  Jerry Hicks  Winter Haven FL

 

I must start by saying I have been looking online for the most cheapest all inclusive for my husband and I at the Caesars.  Every time I would take a look at it, I would postpone in the hopes of seeing a better lower price in the future. Why you may ask?. Well my husband and I have been together for 16 years. We were married at the Mirage in Las Vegas on the 1rst of May. 2 years ago, I felt that I was trapped and on a one way street as far as this marriage was concerned. I sought a breather by a quick divorce. This divorce I felt was necessary for me as well as for him. During the 2 years divorced we remained friends, (nothing intimate) we were able to see that we loved each other sincerely and there could be no replacement. I guess it was a little lack of respect from him and a complete degradation of self esteem on my part. However, we were able to sole this problem and are back together hopefully forever. So you can only imagine if I was to offer this trip to Vegas to my husband as a gift. Vegas was wonderful to me I think of it as grown up Disney. It is full of 24 back to back enjoyment/activities things to see, to do. I think Vegas should be described as "Sleepness in Vegas".  Elsie Coquillot  Fort Lauderdale FL

 

I haven't taken my dream vacation to Vegas.  Gary Green  Satellite Beach FL

 

My dream Vegas Vacation would make me feel like a celebrity. I would stay in the MTV Suite at the Palm. I would get show tickets to the newest Cirque du Soleil show. I would be put on the VIP list of the hottest clubs in town. I would dine at the hottest and trendiest restaurants in Vegas. I would go shopping in all the stores in the Venetian. I have visited Las Vegas several times but have never ridden the rides atop the Stratosphere. I would really enjoy that. I would take some classes in how to gamble since all I am good at now is Slots. I would get a massage in the hotel's spa. I would do everything I can't afford to do but only dreamed I could afford.  Geneva Hunt  Denver NC

 

In my dream Vegas Vacation, my husband, daughter and mother would fly to Vegas in first class seats. We'd spend the days boat riding or hot air balloon riding and "casino hopping". We'd have two suites at the Luxor hotel. At night, my mom would stay with our daughter while husband and I would try our luck at the roulette table. Of course, we'd have $10000.00 to blow with no regrets.  Soha Molina  Canyon Country CA

 

Party and have fun in Vegas is for me.  Don Woodruff  Beaverton MI

 

My dream Vegas Vacation would be driving from Michigan to Vegas, sightseeing along the way. Once in Vegas, going to the Casino's, watching the action...playing the slots and blackjack. Dining in a great restaurant, seeing all there is to see in Las Vegas. The best part of the whole vacation would be taking my mother, my brother and his wife, and my sons. A real family vacation. It would be special because I have never been able to take my sons on a vacation...never...not once. That is why this Vegas Dream Vacation would be a dream come true and something I would never forget.  Teri Dewald  Turner MI

 

My ideal Vegas trip would have to take in the delights of the Strip and Downtown. Four nights at Bellagio or Wynn for the glamour of the strip, plus two at the Golden Nugget or Plaza for old school Downtown dirty gambling. Barry Manilo, Elton John, La Femme and Fashionistas tickets are essential. As is a dinner date at iconic locations (from the movie Casino) like Peppermills Fireside lounge and Centre Stage at the Plaza. If we get lucky on the tables, a meal at Picasso would be the perfect celebration, as would a chopper flight over the canyon. More than any of the above, my perfect Vegas trip would be one that includes staggering back to the room at 6am after a marathon all-night blackjack session, punctuated by lounge entertainment by suptegenarian comidians and Elvis/Frank/Deano/Sammy impersonators. That would be well worth the price of any gaming loss.  Adam Bennett  London  UK

 

My loving partner of 14 years has been courageously battling advanced breast cancer for a year and a half. In the throes of the worst chemo and radiation burns and during the pain of her surgeries, we always mentally went to her "happy place" to help her through. Picture it: The Flamingo- after a night of seeing a good show, eating a fantastic meal, and having fun at our favorite slot machine, spending the morning under a palm tree by a beautiful pool, smelling the warm morning air, feeling the sun gear up for the day, having a crisp iced tea at the chair side table, all while the flamingo Las Vegas pipes through some of your favorite music.  Closing your eyes and knowing that whatever life has in store for you today, knowing there's always a chair open for you, waiting for whenever you can get there, at the Flamingo. Friendly faces, an escape from a painful day, and maybe, if you're really lucky, a declared remission, and maybe, just maybe, three red sevens lined up on the center line. What a happy place.  Yvette Schneider  Forest Hills NY

 

The dream vacation would be to come to Vegas and live like the rich and famous. Hang with the Maloof's and stay in a different dream suite at the Palms each night, spend Steve Wynn's money, while your there rather than giving it to his casino. Of course, travel must be first class by limo only. Play golf on the best courses with the prime tee times with your favorite celebs/athletes. After a morning on the links, a massage is a must, to help get the kinks out, and relax before you head out for the evening. A private dining experience with the best chef in Las Vegas is a must. After dinner, the hottest, sexiest show, is a definite, thinking Zumanity would be a great one to check out. After the show, back to gambling Steve Wynn's cash and not just by yourself, with your 2 or 3 best friends that are with you to enjoy the experience. After gambling the night life is just starting to get going so you have to head out to the hottest clubs for some drinking and dancing, lets say Pure or Rain. After your partied out, you return to your suite for a soak in the hot tub before retiring for the night, although the sun seems to be coming up.  Richard Hillerich  Louisville KY

 

Let me start by saying that I have not been on a vacation since I was 12 years old. My ideal dream to Las Vegas would be to stay at a casino hotel and shop on the strip all day long. I have kids, so I would love to be able to have them with me and enjoy it just as much. I don't know how specific I can be because I have never been anywhere near the West Coast of the USA. My family has never been on a vacation before. They cost too much for us and winning a trip would be the only way that we could do it. Please consider us for this contest. I want to see the bright lights of the Vegas strip and this would be the only way I could ever do it. Thank you!   Marci Carter  Callahan FL

 

Experiencing Las Vegas first hand would definitely be the ultimate vacation experience. I have always heard second narrations about people's trips to Las Vegas, and I would like to experience this vacation for myself. It would be a dream to win this vacation, and I would be forever indebted into making this happen.  Krystal Ortega  Mercedes TX

 

My Las Vegas trip would be "My" dream vacation, and "My dream vacation only"! (No Compromise). It would consist of "Doing what I want and when I want to do it".  Eddie Ryan  Phoenix AZ

 

I have never had a Vegas vacation but sure would like to have one.  Dianna Schultz  Virginia MN

 

Ok, so here it is....a wedding in Vegas. I know you are probably thinking "How original", but if you listen to my story you will see it really is "original". About six months ago I gave birth to triplets and my significant other and I were sidetracked with the wedding. Needless to say, we still need to tie the knot. With three new ones at home, money is a factor, therefore, canceling any wedding plans. My dream trip would be to surprise my husband to be and blindfold him on a plane to the "unknown destination"...Only I would know we are going to Vegas to get married. I would love to have the agenda set up and get married upon immediate arrival in an Elvis chapel. You see, right before I gave birth, Elvis was playing in the car. Although I am not a huge Elvis fan, he is a significant part of my life. This would be a dream because we would finally be married, and we would also have some free time to ourselves. As an added bonus, a marriage sweet and winning a Minivan in a casino would mind boggling!  Roxanne Ranelli  Midland PA

 

My ideal Las Vegas trip would have to include............. the pharoah`s pheast buffet at the Luxor, the strip , the bonanza gift shop, Freemont street experience , $4.99 steak and eggs at 4 am , Elvis!  Wayne Newton , the surrounding desert , waitresses who have worked in the same casino coffee shop for 30 years, the lights, even the 7-11 has neon lights, Craps!  John Haynes  Weymouth UK

 

My husband and I haven't been on a vacation in a long time and I think this would be perfect, we both like to spin the wheel and try a few card games now and then and I hear the food and the scenery is just spectacular. Never been in the desert and it would be a real hoot.  Rose Chauder  Gardiner Mines NS

 

My ideal trip to Las Vegas would start with a phone call that I won an all-expense paid trip to Las Vegas. My mom would have to accompany me since neither one of us have ever visited Las Vegas and it is s dream of hers to go. A limo would pick my mother and I up to get us to the airport. We would be seated in first-class and there would be another limo waiting to take us to Treasure Island. Upon arrival, we would be greeted by one of the hotel managers and advised that we are staying in their Penthouse Suite for the entire week with our own valet. After getting settled into the suite we would head down to the casino with the $2,000 that came along with the prize. My mom is not a big gambler so she would play the slots as I played Blackjack. At the same time we would both yell for having won a few thousand dollars! Sometime that week we would find out that the hotel arranged for us to see Engelbert Humperdinck in concert; my mother's favorite singer. We would end our week with a shopping spree and a grand dinner to include lobster and champagne. A limo would take us back to the airport. Upon arriving to our home airport our family would be there waiting to welcome us back home!  Marianne Handlir  Forest Hill MN

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be one with my husband and kids. As a SAHM of five home schooled children, we don't take vacations as my husband is the only one working. My children are so envious of the other children who go on vacation year after year. It takes us almost two years to save for a week vacation. I know this may sound corny but it is true. My family means the world to me and my dream vacation involves every last one of them.  Lisa Borders  Effort PA

 

First I would get a room at the Excalibur and have 20.000 just for gambling, then I would take a limo to the lake for a day on a house boat with a speed boat for skiing. then it would be a night of dancing and having fun with a beautiful blond bombshell. I would go to many shows like circe de soliel and have romantic dinners. there would be a helicopter waiting to take us to a sky view of grand canyon and then a rafting trip through the canyon. after this for about 6 days then I would go to bed for another week to rest from all the fun I had the previous week. this is the perfect vacation. period.  Steven Garcia  Mesa AZ

 

Las Vegas is such an interesting city with so much diversity! Where to begin? My Vegas Dream vacation would begin with first class airfare for 2 and would include a 4 night stay at a luxury hotel on the Strip. We would enjoy the best seats at some of the greatest shows offered and would dine at a top restaurant nightly. We would visit the Getty museum and stroll through the wonderful shops on the strip. We would enjoy the view from a helicopter flying around the area at dusk. We would see the sights of the city and surrounding areas. A side trip to Hoover Dam or the Ring of Fire would be fascinating. Oh, yes, and of course we would visit the casinos and try our luck. What memories we would have!  Cynthia Shaffer  Metairie LA

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be get married again at the Chapel of Love. My husband really messed up our wedding night by getting to involved in the gambling but he is more mature now and this time he promises not to buy me a foot long hot dog from Slots-o-Fun and take me out to a nice place on our wedding night and I promised him that I wouldn't scream, "How could I marry you-you don't even know that I hate hot dogs!" in the middle of Riviera lobby. My dream Vegas vacation would involve both of us behaving and winning lots of money.  Karen Tranchitello  Warrenville IL

 

My dream LV trip would be to take my sister and brother in law as a special gift for them. They have done so much for me and I would love to be able to pay them back this way. They deserve it because my brotherin law just suffered a severe heart attack and at 44 is total disabled.  Briget Duggan  Scranton PA

 

Having an all paid trip, that starts off with a first class flight to Vegas, then getting treated like a high roller, with a stretch limo picking me up and taking me to the hotel and then getting a luxury suite and getting tons of freebies and gifts for even coming to Vegas!  I would be able to get a long all day spa treatment, which includes facials and message for long period of time, then I would go shopping in Caesar and getting specialty chocolate and drinks. I would be able to go to any club and get in without waiting and party all night long!  Kim Phan  Foster city CA

 

Las Vegas is a place of magic and mystery. The bright lights dazzle and entrance as Elvis croons Viva Las Vegas from the stereo. I am utterly intoxicated from the richness of the food, the sights and sounds, the fine wine and champagne that flows like water, the shopping, the shows, the pampering. Is there anywhere more perfectly decadent? I look dreamily at my lover's face, the New Year's firework display mirrored in his dazzling eyes, as he gets down on his knee, produces a 5 carat diamond ring professing his love and asks me to marry him. Nothing could be more romantic or perfect. And we promise that every year on our honeymoon we will go celebrate in our favorite city of all. Viva Las Vegas!  Lana Popejoy  Cache OK

 

My dream vacation to Vegas would start out with my whole family meeting there for a reunion. We would all meet at the Luxor where my son got married a few years ago. I would lose weight for my trip too! I would go to all the casino's and try to break the bank! Slots are my passion! Of course I would love to go to some shows and experience Vegas at night. My vacation would end with me hitting a progressive jackpot and being able to afford the trip all over again.  Dayna Kalil  Schenectady NY

 

A beautiful room with a view of the strip. Also the hotel should have an incredible pool area for lounging. And a fun bar for dancing @ nite.  Barbara Tymer  Camas WA

 

I would be thrilled just to be there. We've always talked about going and it would be a dream vacation to stay at a place with beautiful accommodations, great food and have at least one really big win! We'd take in a show, enjoy the casinos and all of the sights to be seen.  Leanne Bradley  Wanaque NJ

 

To stay for a week at the Paris Hotel in a High Rollers Suite for free with a cash roll of $5000 to spend anyway I'd like. To meet David Boreanaz in the hotel and have a private drink and dinner with him.  Michele Rees  Indianapolis IN

 

My dream Vegas Dream Vacation would be an all inclusive trip for my family. I'd like to stay at Circus Circus or one of the other family friendly hotels, so that we could enjoy our time there together. My husband and I never had a honeymoon and we've never had a family vacation, so we would take advantage of every "tourist-type" opportunity we could. We'd take side trips to outlying points of interest, dine and gamble at night, and as a special surprise, I'd love for my husband to get to play poker. It wouldn't have to be a big shot tournament or anything, just a time when he could enjoy himself doing what he likes to do. Before we leave, we would spend time exploring the Vegas Strip and looking for neat souvenirs to take home just a small piece of our first ever family vacation.  Shari Watson  El Dorado KS

 

To have my family all having fun together, places to play for the kids and my husband and I to have fun playing at the Casino's and hitting a great big jack pot!  So that we could stay and play longer. I would also like to enjoy the scenery in Vegas, to see all the lights lit up at night, and to have fun with the kids swimming and playing at the Amusement parks.  Vegas is a happening place and would love for my family to be able to experience it, so they to can come with their kids and spouses.  So Vegas if I Win....Here We Come Baby!  Lisa Ottenweller  Odenville AL

 

It is not hard to imagine myself at the MGM or sitting at a slot machine without a care in the world. I have watched so many shows on Las Vegas I feel like I have been there. I imagine stepping out of a limo...gently putting down my champagne glass I'd sipped from the airport and being greeted at the door...Welcome to Las Vegas Mrs. Roberson! Now thats what I'm talking about!  Gloria Roberson  Orlando FL

 

When most people think of Vegas, they think of money, but honestly...I think of lavish hotels, blinding lights and incredible energy. Most of all my dream vacation would be a honeymoon I never had with breakfast in bed every morning, roaming the "strip" to see all of the fascinating hotels and attractions. Plus, a Celine Dion show wouldn't disappoint me. Just to visit a place that has so much pizzazz and intrigment would be more than I could ask for.  Morgan Harrison  Lawton OK

 

My Dream Trip to Las Vegas (for both myself and my husband) involves a first class flight, a suite at the Mirage, and lots of spending money for gourmet meals, designer shopping, and tickets to see Celine Dion!!! Thank You! Deborah Voci  Lynn MA

 

My dream vacation to Vegas would start out with first class travel on the plane, followed by a limo ride into town. I'd adore being pampered and waited on by the staff and would probably even treat myself to a nice spa & manicure before heading out to explore the town that evening to enjoy one of the popular new shows and dinner.  Mmmmm... sounds wonderful already and I haven't even gotten to the best part yet - Gambling! My dream vacation would have to allow for me to bring a friend so that we could cheer each other on when we win! I think I'd want to play a little at all the big casinos until I found the one that was just right for me. Did I mention the yummy drinks that I'd want to sample yet?  I don't even think I'd get a wink of sleep that night, but would love to sleep till noon the next morning and be woken up to a beautiful breakfast delivered by room service. I just hope my dream vacation would include a few extra $$ so that I could tip everyone who had made so many of my dreams come true! Then again, I'm sure I'd be able to easily do so from all my winnings!  I love being playful and experiencing all that life has to offer and I can't imagine any other place that would be a bigger playground then Vegas! This would, without a doubt, be the most exciting dream vacation ever!  Shauna Johnson  Newton MS

 

Hi, My name is Jennifer and I love Vegas. I gambled big last time and got married in Vegas. But I have yet to really get my dream vacation. You see, I'm a thrill seeker and my dream vacation would be more than gamblin, it would include skidiving, bungie jumping and parasailing. I would finally take that sightseeing tour over the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam. Even though my kids are nowhere near 21 I would like to take them with us and stay at Excalibur. It's a great place for kids. I would also take them on The Manhattan Roller Coaster, M&M World, the ghost towns, and many other sights I'm learning about through this website. I guess I would like to be another tourist taking in all that Vegas can offer. Which happens to be more than I can ever fit into just one vacation. Guess we'll just have to back every couple of years, since the city's growing so quickly. 
Sincerely,  Jennifer Chamblin  San Antonio TX

 

My dream Vegas vacation would be to enjoy the sun, gamble responsibly, see some great shows, and have a few wonderful dining experiences with my husband of eleven years. (The kids would love to be spoiled by grandma and grandpa at home during the vacation!)  Darcy Dowd  Brighton MI

 

Vegas is full of excitement within itself. However, I want to renew my wedding vows within this city. Initially, I was married by a magistrate. I want to wear a gown which symbolizes to me a real wedding. Since we had no honeymoon, to vacation in Vegas to include a helicopter ride to sightsee the Hoover Dam/Death Valley would be a thrill within itself. Coupled by exquisite dining, as well as, being entertained by celebrities would be awesome. Oh! do not forget the horseback riding. This is a fantasy trip for two who are senior citizens (ages 55 and 61). We are ready to travel--just waiting on you to contact us!  Janice Williams  Portsmouth VA

 

It would truly be a dream come true to go back to Las Vegas. I have been there one time before. I had the most wonderful time of my life. I got married to the most wonderful man right there in Las Vegas, and I would just love to go back with my husband and relive all of the wonderful memories we have .What a special place Las Vegas is to us.  Theresa King  Rochester NY

 

To take my mom for a free 3 night stay at the Paris Hotel. Of course in a luxury suite. She has been sick and my dad left her 5 a few years ago because she's been sick. She's been to Vegas several times in the past but not for about 5 years. Money is really tight and it doesn't look like she'll be going anytime soon. I've stayed home to help with my brother and the bills (my dad is also a dead-beat). She deserves a break and a free trip to Vegas would do her good. She's always dreamed of staying at the Paris hotel, but has always opted for a "less expensive" hotel. Airfare is outrageous right now, but my grandmother is trying to scrape some money together so she can help me give mom the vacation she needs and deserves. Giving her the vacation she's always dreamed of would be my idea of a "Vegas Dream Vacation".  Matt Jackson  Indianapolis IN

 

My ideal Vegas vacation would be to have, for one weekend, a suite at The Bellagio Hotel, tickets to a hit show, and money to spend and gamble for myself and my boyfriend. The Bellagio because I have never stayed there before. A hit show because shows are tradition in Vegas. Money to dine in the restaurants I can't afford and enough money to gamble at the Texas Hold 'Em table for a few hours would make the trip almost perfect. Most of all, however, I would like my boyfriend, who lives in New York City, whom I never see, to be able to fly out West for free to spend the perfect weekend in Las Vegas with me.  Rachel Stein  Park City UT

 

My husband and I are busy professionals who both travel extensively, however, my husband has never been to Vegas and I have always gone on business. We also have a two year old (although we also have college kids and are in our 40s) and really need to find some time to get away by ourselves - together - not on business. My husband's birthday is July 31st and I would love to surprise him by whisking him away to Vegas. Doesn't have to be the exact day of his birthday but just a trip to Vegas that he has absolutely no idea we are going on. Will you help me surprise him?  Sue Ream  Westfield IN

 

I lived in Las Vegas in the early 90's and left in 1995 when I was 6 months pregnant with my son. Often times I find myself on a warm night just closing my eyes and reliving some of the many memories I have of my time there. I tell everyone I've ever known that my time in Las Vegas was the absolute best time of my life. I remember working in the Executive offices of one of the casinos, dancing the night away at The Cheyenne Saloon, the Paladium or back when Rockabilly's was a country western bar. I was a member of the Sin City Swing West Coast Swing dance team and it sometimes brings a tear to my eye for the friends I made that I miss so much. My son will be 11 in June 2006 and I couldn't think of a better gift to him then to take him to a place that my heart still calls home. He's seen my pictures of the places I lived, Mt. Charleston, Lake Mead, my friends. He's watched my videos of my dance performances. Growing up in Upstate NY it's hard for him to imagine a place where the weather is always beautiful. That in the month of January you're not buried under 4 feet of snow, rain and slush. It would be a dream come true to take him there and show him the people and the places that I love and hold dear. There is not another place like Las Vegas, nor will there ever be. I want to go home again.  Kathy MacKenzie  Farmington NY

 

I would like to take a vacation because I am long overdue I have never been on a vacation ,and I am a single mom who would love to take my son on a vacation so that this can be a vacation that he never forgets.  Kanaishka Taylor  Milwaukee WI

 

I have never been to Las Vegas. I am 68 years old, and the thought of going to Las Vegas excites me. I have seen many movies, documentaries, advertising ads, showing the many exciting and most interesting ways to spend some time there. Many friends of ours have gone. We do not have the money to travel, but if God wishes we could easily win the contest which I am sure will be very popular. I know that the casinos are the most popular entertainment for most people. My husband says that I have a particular leaning towards this and he laughs at my love of it. I have seen movies of the lush beautiful hotels, with the most extravagent fixtures, and exotic interior decorating. I understand that Las Vegas is a city that never sleeps with constant entertainment, and places to see and go. It would be my dream to go with my husband of 47 years to one of the beautiful hotels and have breakfast in bed, lounge around the fabulous pools and just sit and relish all the beauty that I have never seen, but know that it exists there. After all this wonderful relaxing time, it would be then most adventurous to visit the shows and the casinos. I am an adventurer and love travel, but unable to do it, because it is financially not viable. What an excitement it would be to hear that we have won the fabulous trip in the golden years of our life. I would like in person to witness the stage shows and see the casinos in progress. What a wonderful opportunity it would be to meet other people, which I love to do and share with them this Dreamy vacation. With this in mind, I look forward to an answer to my prayer.  Selma Flood  Westmoorings-by-the-Sea,

 

For me, the ideal vacation in Vegas would be VIP entry into the top dance clubs, Only after spending a day in a luxury suite on the penthouse of Caesar's Palace, where my husband and I sipped on Mai Tai's after a cool dip in our pool followed by a warm up in our room's jacuzzi. Of course we started out with filet mignon and lobster for breakfast in bed, only to be rudely dragged out of bed for our early afternoon daily full body massages... Yes, we would get out, at least the next night or two to ride the gondolas, then stroll over to catch Cirque du Soleil. After all that walking, we have to stop back across from Caesar's and get some sundaes, I mean, all that walking we need to build up our strength! We also would make sure something we've never done in Vegas, which would be to get out and horseback ride and see the sites that don't involve those luxurious casinos!  Of course, we would have to come back to our favorite slots, the $5 ones to get the adrenaline going when you spin that Wheel of Fortune at the Rio!  No doubt, most important will always be the maxin' and relaxin', sunbathin' and shadin' in massage city! The Luxor, Caesar, livin like the stars!  Because, what's the point of going to sin city if you can't return to your home with that smirk on your face as you gaze into each others eyes realizing that only the two of you will ever know what really happened on that dream vacation...  Aww yeah....Vegas. Mmm hmm!  Latania Logan  Chicago IL

 

The dream Vegas Vacation would be....to travel by Amtrak train (so you don't have to drive) to the Vegas station, then take a taxi to the Paris Las Vegas Hotel. After check-in visit the Les Artistes Steakhouse for a nice dinner. After dinner go to the KĄ Cirque Du Soleil show. After the show visit one of the casinos for a drink and a little gambling. The next morning visit one of the low-cost breakfast buffets, then off to a day of visiting as many "free" attractions as possible. Attractions such as:  The Aquarium at the Silverton, Conservatory at Bellagio, Masquerade Village at the Rio, and many more. For a low-cost, quick lunch before returning to site seeing visit a hot dog vendor's cart at the Gold Coast for only .75cents or .99 cent hound doggies at Nickel Town at the Riviera (available with coupon book). Then relax at one of the casinos until afternoon, back to the Paris Las Vegas Hotel for a spa treatment and facial treatment for couples. For surf and turf dinner on the cheap visit the Hard Rock Cafe, get the $8.95: Gambler's Special: Steak, three grilled shrimp, a choice of potato or broccoli and a salad. Available at Mr. Lucky's 24/7 in the Hard Rock Hotel. It's not on the menu you'll have to ask your server, best part is it's available around the clock. After dinner take in a movie, visit a comedy club or visit one of the many other nightlife shows. Spend the next day at the hotel pool relaxing and taking in the sights.  Rebecca Chavez  Lodi CA

 

This is a vacation of my dreams. I have never been to Las Vegas. I have dreamed of visiting this beautiful city, but never having enough funds to spare; I a desire to travel, yet I still don't have the funds.  This would be a really nice break for me and 4 family members. I look forward to staying in the presidential suite of an elegant five diamond hotel. Relaxing in a spa, full body massages at the Bellagio or Venetian only after some serious shopping. Going to several shows and meeting B. Manilow.  Breakfast would be delivered each morning while lunch and diner might be savoring the famous steaks of Charlie Plamer's or Auerelo.  I would visit the Liberace Museum, Dolphine Habitat, Fremont light show, drive to the red Rock Canyon, Hoover Dam, then inquire about interesting more tours available and top off my touring with a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon.  All expenses paid for me and my guests. Travel by air to the city, once on land a limo for the group and for me a really nice sports car. My vacation would have to last at least 14 nights and fifteen days. I will continue to dream of a vacation in the City that shine day and night.  Zoia Martin  Cape Girardeau MO

 

My ultimate dream Las Vegas vacation is staying at one of the many fabulous hotels on the strip. My sister from Texas joins me for a little family reunion. We walk the strip, enjoying the beauty of each hotel, sampling specialty drinks, and the tempting food. Each hotel contains shops we have to check out for souvenirs. We play the slots, hoping to win some Silver Strikes to remember the casinos. We try to take in as many of the shows as we can, knowing these are the best shows on earth! We get great seats to a concert, (such as Toby Keith or Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton) and backstage passes to meet the entertainers. We talk to the locals to find out about some hidden treasures that might await us. We go back to our hotel for a cat nap. Can't sleep too long because there's just too much to see and do. Before leaving, we make plans for our next little reunion, which we will make at least an annual event. We thank everyone as we are leaving, for giving us a trip of a lifetime!  Jolie Meyer  Plymouth WI

 

As a yearly visitor to Las Vegas, the perfect Vegas vacation would be to spend two full weeks and spend those weeks at three different Hotels, starting with the Bellagio for one third of the vacation, the next third at the MGM Grand and the third part at the new Mandalay Bay. While staying at these great hotels, having visits to Hoover Dam, The Grand Canyon and Laughlin Nevada would be fantastic. Seeing all of the new changes and new events and seeing Celine Dion and all of the local celebrities like Wayne Newton would be great and would make the perfect Las Vegas Vacation, Las Vegas to the Max!  E. Rice  Portland OR

 

I would Love to be in Vegas for the PBR (professional bull riders finals). Nothing like it anywhere!  Josephine Eberhardt  Elkhorn WI

 

If I choose anywhere to go it would be Las Vegas. The excitement of Las Vegas is the same as the excitement I felt as a child awaiting a visit to the amusement park on our annual picnic. The ideal Las Vegas Vacation, for me, would be a stay at the gorgeous Venetian Hotel, some meals in their world renowned restaurants, a few chips to play the tables, a couple dollars for the slots, and a casual walk thru the wonderful shops! OH! What an incredible time that would be!  Cathie McElwee  Tucson AZ

 

It would be really nice to do something for myself for a change. My life never seems to revolve around me. I would love to relax and enjoy myself.  Deborah Grigg  Pawleys Island SC

 

My ultimate Vegas trip would include being whisked away by a limo from the Airport to a luxurious suite at an upscale hotel. I would then be treated to a 30 minute message by a young six-pack abs James Denton look-a-like. Following my message I shower and change into my casino gear...comfortable yet classy soft jeans and knit shirt with lightweight white jacket. I then go gambling until the wee hours of morning sipping on a nice glass of wine and eating a few appetizers while imbibing. The following few days I would repeat the process but throw in a few shows while in Vegas. Ahh...the good life. The day before my departure I would spend the day in the spa to detoxify my body and prepare to return to the real world. After my spa treatment I would return to the casino to play into the wee hours of morning building memories to stay with me until next time...Viva Las Vegas!  Loretta Maxie  Alcoa TN

 

My Vegas dream vacation would start with a stay at the Venitian and taking a romantic gondola ride on my first night with my husband. Then we would hit the casinos for a few hours before calling it a night. The next day, we would take a trip to Hoover Dam and enjoy a day of sight-seeing there. After the day out, we would enjoy a dinner at one of the buffets on the strip, since we will be quite hungry after a long day of sight-seeing. Then we will relax in our room for the evening or maybe go and watch the dancing water at the Bellagio. The next day would be spent visiting the casinos along the strip and gambling a bit in each. Then we would pick up some tickets to a show for the evening, probably something along the lines of Splash. The next day we would go and have a little fun at Circus Circus playing games and riding some rides. That evening, we would go and check out the older part of Vegas and then maybe stop at the Stratosphere and take in the view for awhile. Then we could stop in a few casinos for a little more gambling before the trip ends and hope to come out ahead before leaving the next day.  Cheryl Smith  Jonesborough TN

 

Well... My ideal Vegas Dream Vacation would begin with an afternoon flight to Vegas with my best friends. After being shuttled to my hotel on Freemont Street and checking in to the Golden Nugget and checking out the Fremont Street Experience, we would walk in to Binions to the poker room. After being seated for a while and earning comped meals and drinks, Doyle Brunson will sit down at my table and we go heads up for a large pot. I call his bluff and win the hand!  My friends and I then take Doyle out for all you can eat prime rib and play ping pong!  I would the hit every casino on the strip and fremont play poker tourny's and join every slot club!  After 4 days of gambling and enjoying the sites and sounds of the Vegas nightlife we would head home.  Mike Leach  Hamilton ON Canada

 

Will it be love in Las Vegas?  Have you ever met someone and knew instantly, that this could very well be the person that you should be with, for the rest of your life? Well I did for the very first time in my life, nearly a year and a half ago, back in February 2005. We dated a few times and then, something both wonderful and awful happened at the same time. There was a promotion opportunity for this wonderful man, if he was willing to relocate to Las Vegas. He couldn't turn down the opportunity. I understood. I couldn't even think about joining him sometime soon, as I have a daughter, who still needed my help getting through life's challenges. The time is better now. Both he and I have tried to continue to live our lives being with others, yet the feelings are so strong we know we will be together again someday. He tells me about all the wonderful things he does in his new home of Las Vegas. How much I want to be there to do those things with him. I want to come to Las Vegas to see him again and do something fun and adventurous while I'm there! This would be the best vacation ever. I want the opportunity to see if Las Vegas might be my home with this man someday. And you know what? If Las Vegas does become my new home, my friends and family have all assured me, they will visit me Often. And then I could show them All how to have a very good time in my new home of Las Vegas. Could this be love of a new city and a new life? I so want to know! Cindy Harris  University Place WA

 

Hey I went to Vegas in 2003 and I got married to a girl I met there, but it didn't work out. I'm nutty enuff to go back to Vegas and do it again.  Dammy Davis  Toronto ON Canada

 

My dream Vegas vacation, would to be full of family. I would renew my wedding vows, in front of all five of my adult children. When I got married ten years ago, four of my children could not attend. We were to poor for a reception of celebration. Las Vegas is the city of fun and excitement, the perfect place for a family celebration.  Kathleen Aanrud  Brookings OR

 

The best I could imagine would be for my husband and I to renew our vows in a Fun Vegas style chapel - just the 2 of us - like 2 newlyweds - would then paint the town red til the wee hours of the morning.  Lori Bowers  Little Chute WI

 

My name is Krista Johnson, I am 28 years young (lol) and I am from, BC, Canada. I have never been to Vegas before, but I sure know what my Vegas dream vacation would be like . . . .My Vegas vacation would be like a dream, because everything about it would be the best of the best, like a star would spend!. I would stay at the fanciest hotel, in the fanciest room, have limo service, see all of vegas and maybe meet someone famous!:), wow!, what a vacation that would be...or really good dream? LOL Sincerely.  Krista Johnson  Abbotsford BC Canada

 

Being there with my mom, showing her all the extraordinary things from vegas.  Elena Callas  Otsego MN

 

Simple, to take my wife on an unforgettable vacation to somewhere we've never been.  Having 5 children, all our vacations have to be family oriented and low key.  This would be perfect to escape the kids for once since they are getting older and can be left for extended times at grandparents, ect.  Vegas is one of the three places we plan to visit without the kids ( punta cana and cuncun) to let out "hair down".  Both being in our late 30s and never even been away alone ( no honeymoon), this would be perfect!  Terrance Lang  Beaver PA

 

My dream vacation to Vegas would start with coctails on the plane. After arriving I would walk the strip admiring all the lights, shows and tourists. After walking until I am exhausted I would enjoy a nice spa treatment at the hotel I am staying. Then it would be time to eat some seafood, lobster and shrimp. After maintaining a full stomach it would be time to play the slots, and play the slots and play the slots. With my winnings you will find me shopping and collecting as much of Vegas as I could so I could brag to all my family and friends about the wonderful time I had while enjoying my Dream Vacation. I want to be so tired when I return from Vegas that I need another vacation. Thank you for allowing me to dream about my dream vacation.  Angie Jennings  Charlotte NC

 

I have finally met my soul mate and would like to get married to him in Las Vegas. We went to a wedding on New Years Eve at the Graceland Chapel and wanted to get married too but didn't want to take away from the special day of my daughter and now son in law. Mark and I want to have the kind of marriage that we will remember. Nothing ordinary since neither of us are and we waited for 3 years since we met until we could be together.  Since we are still paying off our trip we can not afford to pay for our own trip to marry. So if you can do anything to help us out we would be grateful... Thank you for the opportunity to possibly win our wedding trip.  Janice Page-McCafferty  Nazareth PA

Elvis greets me with a lei as I deplane in Las Vegas. I adjust my long blonde wig, put on my oversized sunglasses and wriggle into the limo. On the way to our hotel, my husband and I split up the loot that was comped to us for our stay. We arrive at our 5 star hotel and are treated like rock stars as our every whim is catered to. A goodie basket awaits us in our suite. We enjoy our hot tub, nibble on the goodies from the basket and get ready for some Las Vegas action. We try our luck on the one armed bandits before we join in a poker tournament filled with A list celebrities. Could that really be Wayne Newton -- I think he just winked at me! The days to follow are filled with fine cuisine, gondola rides, more gaming action, pampering massages and spectacular shows. When it's time to return home, I toss my wig and sunglasses onto the bed and leave the behind. We take with us only fun memories and lots of winning$!  Lillian Hagio  Sacramento CA
