    Fremont coo. Just stay in one of the major hotels. I personally think Fremont is more enjoyable than the strip. The bars are more lively. It's more of a chill environment. The strip has all the shops though. The locals prefer Fremont over the strip.

    two different animals..

    The Strip is more international now with how they cater..
    Downtown is more domestic.. when i do go out its usually downtown..

    especially if ur goin on a budget downtown is the place to be..

    Yea I just interviewed with Goldspike (Fremont/ Downtown) it's a bar/ club/ lounge. They're about to open up 3 more properties on Fremont. Fremont thriving right about now. But 3-4 years ago I would've said avoid that area at all cost. But it's most definitely more enjoyable than the strip. But the strip is only a 10 minute ride away. I would say get a room downtown. Wake up to that. Hit the strip during the day. Hang out on the til about 8-9ish then head back down to Fremont. The club's and bars are more entertaining. Plus there's more activity than just Casino/ getting ? ? . More vendors. More variety of food. Less expensive (unless you go to the Commonwealth bar).

    I had that ? at the Foodie Fest last year at Sunset Station. The cold one with the mayo is the truth. I saw them on Shark Tank a few years back. They on the corner of Las Vegas Blvd and Fremont.

    I don't live in fear but not going to put myself in a risky situation right now

    Wondering if I can do Rome in 5 days....and what is the best time of year to go ?

    No it will probably be around October

    Working with Legislative session aftermath consumes my summer

    I want to go when it's still nice and not cold or rainy.

    I wouldn't have let recent events put you off London, but if you've already been there then you might as well try another European city.

    Rome is definitely doable in 5 days. I must have stopped there for about 4 days and it felt like I had done enough of the city by that point.

    I want to go to both !

    So I'm curious too.


    When you say dolo... like completely by yourself ? I have never done that. My coworker goes everywhere alone. I get a island and spa trip. But Italy , Bali , and Peru ....seems weird to me she always goes alone.

    hmmm..some Jamaican women have a sexiness about that thats unparalleled.
    bahamas....less mileage.

    it depends on which city for costs.

    i dont know,

    i like the beaches better in bahamas, less crowded
