Ha!!

I'll slim back into that mankini yet!!


None of the search engines I just quickly looked at will search that far ahead but for this year a few days before is less than half the cost of a few days later.....??

No idea why that is but whatever the cost (short of a bodypart) I'm there!!!!

I am in. Please keep in mind that Vegas in July is very hot, we have found that late May and late September weather is nicer, plus being non-vacation months, air fares are cheaper.
