OMG I thought I was the only one that gets really excited about US supermarkets and fast food chains. It is a highlight, I even love going to get petrol (gas). We brought back a suitcase full of food last time!
For New York, we stayed at the Affinia Dumont and it was wonderful. Highly recommend it, the service was great and we had a view of the chrysler building. It was ranked number 1 on tripadvisor and it is just outside of times square, an easy walk and close to the subway. I personally wouldn't say in Times Square, a bit too noisy and crowded, but great to visit. PM me if anyone wants more details.
For Vegas, the Venetian is mid strip, close to all the action. We stayed at MGM last time and loved it, but this time trying something different. Bellagio is great as well, but they charge $35 per child per night on top of the room rate, and the Venetian rate we got was unbelievable and if you see what their suites look like on the web you will be amazed. For a first trip I would stay mid strip, either Bellagio, Caesars, Venetian or similar, so you can walk to most places easily.
Thanks for all the other tips, i think the disney tickets are still cheaper on line than from FlightCenter with the current 5 for 3 offer, and I can't see needing more than 5 days to do Disney.
I don't really think there are many places in DL that you need do ADR's or PS, whatever they are called, only Bayou and maybe a character meal, but last time we ate at the PPH one with stitch and just walked in without a problem. It's not like WDW which has so many food options.
Anyone staying in LA at all? Having problems deciding on where to stay for our first 4 nights prior to driving to Vegas.
Oh, love target and Wallmart, just love it.
