Hi

Just wondering if you have made any plans for the Las Vegas part of your trip? We're heading there on our holiday so would be good to see what you have planned?

Just to let you know that we are looking at cancelling our stay at the Stratosphere and changing to a more central, fancier hotel. The Palazzo is looking like the top choice at the moment.

Next installment coming soon...

San Francisco

Alcatraz and City Tour



Segway Tour

Pier 33

Fisherman's Wharf

Golden Gate Bridge



Cable Cars



Coit Tower



Japantown

Chinatown

Never been in a helicopter before but I hope it doesn't make me sick!

Our grand canyon tour includes a plane, helicopter and boat ride so that will give me a taster.

I haven't actually booked the strip helicopter flight yet. I am planning on booking it through All Las Vegas Tours. I have used this company (and the San Francisco version) for most of our tours and they seem really good.

When I last went to LV (2004) with my parents and brother, we went on a helicopter to the Grand Canyon and didn't feel sick at all luckily, in 2004 we had longer there and did a longer tour which included a river raft ride down the Colorado, this time as we don't have so long we're just doing the helicopter part and we booked that with Papillon.

On the helicopter last time, it was the 4 of us and another couple, there were two seats next to the pilot and 4 across the back.
