I'm heading out there on 27/11 for 4 nights.

Currently I've booked the Stratosphere restaurant for Thanks-giving, a helicopter trip to the Grand Canyon and one over the strip at night.

I thought about catching a show, but I've only really heard of Cirque de Soleil. Is this the best one to see?

Also shopping? The Mrs will want to while it is still cheaper (just), any recommended places for that?

Can't reccomend much else that you havent already said, because you're going with the missus.

Go see the Blue Man Group.
Go shopping at the mall down near fremont st, the one up the other end of the strip isn't as good.

20 minutes girls! hehe

Check out Caesars Palace and the Venetian for shopping.

The Gun Store is superb and somewhere you should really check out.

I saw 'O' when I was out there and it was pretty good. smile

Gun Store - try the big belt-fed GPMG, the H&K MP5 and the Desert Eagle 0.50 cal! Don't bother with the UZi or the AK47

Blue Man Group is a laugh

Ka is a good show (Better than O)

Helicopter into Grand Canyon (or Plane to North Rim if you have more time)

Uh, I did that I wish I hadn't TBH. Expensive and not very good IMO. I would keep the cash and put it on black .. no wait, red .. no, black.

Blue Man Group show is great. I love magic and there were some fine shows on when I visited.

Penn and Teller if you're into magic and if they're still on.

Get to the gun store and try the .50 cal Desert Eagle
We went to see KA at MGM, really enjoyed it. I'm not really into 'shows' but thought it was excellent, and the stage / set was amazing!
Plenty of shopping on the strip, Fashion Show mall, Forum Shops at Ceasars, Miracle Mile at Planet Hollywood etc.
Bellagio fountains (could watch these for hours!)

Beat me to it, marry some Vegas bint in a drink fuelled frenzy - bang out your load and in the future you can tell the kids they have a long lost brother/sister in the States.

Just don't sign up to any social networking sites in 15 years time. Ask Cara van man...

I've seen Blue Man group before, so I'll think I'll stick with CDS.

The Gun store is now on my list!

Cheers.

There is a restaraunt in Circus Circus Hotel which does THE best steak!
It was voted best in Vegas something like 5 years in a row IIRC.
Make sure you book in advance though, they get very busy!
p.s. I love Vegas, you lucky git!
