I want somewhere we can walk to see things, Take a short cab ride if need be.
Love live music, drinks, see the shows and do a little gambling I'm sure.
All of this is useful though. I wondered about fremont st.
Might have to do that next go round.

I think once you do Fremont...the modern strip won't have much appeal to you.
Don't get me wrong. I enjoy both.
But Fremont has a lot more going on.
And the Aria is a nice hotel. But really...they all are pretty much. There aren't any "shit holes" (at least not on my personal scale of "shit hole"...which would be the roach motel lol)
The Aria of course, is one of the newest ones. So it's probably one of the nicest.
But honestly...The Venetian, Mirage, Treasure Island, Bellagio, Caesars are all up there too.
And even the "lesser" ones like The Tropicana (I had a suite there that was out of this world for $600...even had a steam room in it), Harrahs, Ballys, and Flamingo are all clean and have some pretty nice suites in them.
And of course there's Paris Casino. And they just re-did Bills Gambling Hall as the new Cromwell Casino Hotel (supposed to be real nice).
The old Imperial Palace is now the new redesigned Quad Casino and is sitting right there with "The Link" and the "Highroller" observation wheel.
And that area is the new center of everything right now on the "modern" strip.
Damn...don't forget about MGM (awesome), New York New York, Excalibur, Mandalay Bay, and The Luxor.
And going north on the Stip is The Wynn and Encore, the old Riviera (one of my favorite places $2 drinks at the casino bar), Circus Circus, The Stratosphere...and starting August 23rd the brand new SLS Casino where the Sahara used to be:
