Our family of 5 love it and for us it is a 'must do' We are normally CS people but this is our one TS meal each trip. The food is decent, the service very good and the entertainment is a nice addition. It is also nice to take some time to just sit and soak up the atmosphere in the middle of a...

We stay at the Jockey Club with our kids. It is right in between Bellagio and The Cosmopolitan (you can even use the Cosmo pool) The location is excellent. We get the 2 bedroom suite for some room to spread out and having the kitchen is very handy for a light breakfast and coffee. The kids can...

we are going to be in the US for Christmas as well this year. I am doing the little tree thing as well and am making little stockings from felt to hang on the branches for each child. I will put their first initial on each stocking so they know which is theirs. The stockings look like this...

Your plan looks good but my concern is that you haven't considered how totally horrid you can feel on the first day after such a long flight (especially if you don't get much sleep on the plane). We try not to plan too much for the first day, it is hard enough just driving on the wrong side of...

and something else I just thought of ... American coke tastes different because it is made with high fructose corn syrup. Sometimes you can get Mexican coke and it is made with sugar, the same as ours.

At the end of a meal you ask for the check (not the bill) and don't forget to walk on the side walk (not the footpath) and put your garbage in the trash can (not the rubbish bin). I absolutely love how in America they don't nickel and dime you for the sauce when you purchase fries or some...

I found their salads to be very different to ours. They are usually very heavily dressed. An egg salad sandwich is egg chopped up and mixed with mayo and has no true 'salad' content at all. They also do a chicken version.

The car rental shuttles are very little/no service and if it is busy you will be herded on and off like cattle. I wouldn't worry about tipping them. I cant imagine many do

It is decorated for Halloween but I don't think the entertainment is distinctly 'Halloween'. Lunch is cheaper and for us as a family of 5 the difference is not worth some extra sausage or corn, considering it is already 'all you care to eat'

We love Big Thunder BBQ but we like it for an early lunch (skip breakfast and get there when it opens at 11.30).

Hi Aussiemumma :) We have done quite a few US trips now with our kids and at first I was nervous about the tipping as well. What I have found is that those who expect to be tipped generally make it pretty obvious that is what they are after. Going to the supermarket is just the same as...

we stayed at the PVI in April 2012

We must have been very unlucky because our room at PVI was a long way from clean. Including dark marks that looked like mould around the bath, rubbish from a previous guest left in the wardrobe and a squished spider on the wall near the air conditioner. We also had trouble getting towels and...

There are 5 of us (2 adults, 3 kids) going in December and we had the same decision to make. We have been a few times before and decided, that for us, being closer to the parks at the end of a long few days was worth more than a better breakfast. Because we are there in December (and our kids...

How about the Aquarium of the Pacific at Long Beach?

we used to get the yoghurt parfait cups from McD's for breakfast when we stayed at the Fairfield. I think they were $1

thank you. It wasn't our favourite but it is nice to have a few options. I hope something goes in there soon.

Has anyone been to Millie's lately? The yelp site is saying it has closed.

Another vote here for Big Thunder BBQ. My 3 kids love it (both the food and the entertainment)

My daughter and I got stuck in It's a Small World once. The boat in front of us just stopped all of a sudden (the ones in front kept going). We had to listen to that song over and over for about 20 minutes. We then veeerrrryyy slowly drifted to the exit but got stuck again on the final bend...
