That is a long time to be in Vegas.

you're a trooper. after about 3 days of awesome overload i'm like get me outta here. beatles love at the mirage is cool. the carnegie deli in the mirage is a good eat. sammy hagar's cabo wabo is a decent lunch spot. but if you want a breakfast buffet from the gods, go to the wynn... it's overpriced but awesome still. don't eat the day before.
- i was there last weekend at the wynn buffet. went twice. so good.CanHasQBN

Since you have so much time, and you're from the UK, I would consider doing the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam tours.

Also, if you have never been, keep in mind the largest hotels take _forever_ to get through just to come and go to your room. Mirage isn't too bad, but MGM and some others can can be brutal. Even though it's not as nice, we started staying at Treasure Island more because it doesn't take 10 mins to get through the casino floor just to get to the elevators.
- i like treasure island, good location, walgreens across the street ftwprophetone

Palomino, but only if you're not sober.

Also, if you leave the strip, cab it. It gets shady in parts real quick. Even the north part of the strip past TI or Wynn (where all the tacky chapels are). Made the mistake of walking the strip straight to Freemont and shit got real. Some dude tried to snatch my wife's purse and there is almost no one around that part.

Who stays in Vegas for 10 days?
- In my lifetime I hope to spend less than 10 days total in Las Vegas.MrT

trooper, I can see you are not from the US, so maybe that's why you decided to stay so long there. Vegas is certainly amazing the very first time you go to, specially if you arrive at night.
Even if you have jetlag, chances are you will stay up till 6am the first night, but with that being said..
Most people will tell you that you can really stay 3 nights in vegas, after that, you will ether start to feel repulsed by it, (no offense to fellow QBN Vegans (can I say that?haha) or simply ran out of money.My advice to you is that you start looking on stuff to do, in the nevada surroundings, not sure what because you are in the middle of the desert.. but I think you might find that 10 days is a bit too much for vegas.

I second ETM's suggestion of Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon... I'm still pissed that I didn't get to do those while I was in America at the age of 15...

i was there for 3 nights a week ago. i was totally spent after that. that place will FUCK YOU UP.
