No, Mandalay Bay is right on the strip. Here's a map view of the hotels on the strip. You'd definitely have to take a cab or get a ride. You wouldn't want to hoof it to Las Vegas Blvd.

I'd offer you a ride Cool, but my fine vehicle will probably be a cab!

Just out of curiosity, who's taking their cars?? I'm still debating on driving from the East coast. It's not the best time of year to pass through the midwest!

I'm driving from Boston, prolly straight through.

I'm just a little concerned with hitting heavy snow, the '44 aint the best snowmobile.

[Shaun @ Tru6]

Agreed. I may bring along a pair of snows.

[M.D. Holloway]

your freak'n nutz!

[tabs]

BTW...the Mandalay Bay doesn't even show March yet for booking rooms...

[M.D. Holloway]

Keep working it Tabs - we have faith you will not let us down (or besmerch your fine name)!

[5axis]

You drivers may want to break south at Chicago and run the southern route. You can pop on and off Rt 66 most of the way there.
I'll probably be out there, hanging on the eastside. Over by Eastern and Sahara for the locals.

[M.D. Holloway]

So is it the Mandalay Bay?

[DonDavis]

I want to be there. Not sure if the wife will be with me. She's going to Mexico the week before.
Either way, 1 room.

[Leland Pate]

I want to go so bad. I'm keeping a close eye on our deployment taskings. I may be getting hit for a two week job in March so I'll just have to wait and see.

Save me a room just in case!

[tabs]

SO how many have U got Lubby....and is it decided that U boyz wana stay at the Bay.....this is your trip, you have to tell me what you want done...

I need to know that you need say 55 rooms at the Mandalay Bay for such and such days...then I can call them and see what can be done.

I'm in and really hoping to take the E. More likely the targa, which may be a cab, we'll see.

Just bring the money, we could care less which car or how you get there. Fint and I need more money for dinner and booze and your check will do nicely!

Just how lonely are you to bait me on multiple threads? Box of Kleenex handy I'm guessing?

Send a check to Mike, who, uhhh, has my money.

Thanks.

Tabs - can you reserve 50 rooms at the Bay for some wayward pelicans? If not, I will place the call.

Shaun - the check is safe and secure. Still unclear as to why I have it but no matter.

[tabs]

Give them the call Mikey.....

[M.D. Holloway]

OK tabby...

[lendaddy]

Is it really that big of a deal to get a room in Vegas? Or do you guys just want to all be together? I am 50/50 on going, but I'll just grab a room last minute if I can go. If past trips hint atanything it's that you're never in your room anyway.

[cool_chick]

Ok luber, these are the current rates for Mandalay Bay:

Thurs: 179.95
Friday 249.95
Saturday 289.95

We probably should've booked it long ago or something...appears the rates went up.

We need to make a final decision this week. If others want to stay somewhere else, so be it. But a final decision probably needs to be made ASAP.
