Im there for maybe 2 hours Saturday afternoon. Probably not even enough time to leave the airport but I will double check my times.

at the Venetian from the 18th-21st.
(Leaving Sunday A.M.). On Saturday night, we have front-row center seats at "O", so that night is out for us.

I arrive on the afternoon of the 20th. Will be in town through the following weekend. Saturday evening would be do-able.
I'm playing in a tournament the afternoon of the 21st, so if it's a Sunday thing, dinner would work for me.
(Will be nice to see iluv2fly again after meeting him in Sydney in September.)
Oh, and add Robertw477, too...he'll be there as well.

THEHotel looks interesting. I will be staying at the Venetian and The Hotel. Vegas is great Christmas week as the crowds are usually less than most of the year.

Will it work with everybody to meet at the entrance to the greenhouse (botanical gardens) at the Bellagio at 9:30 PM on Saturday (a few of us have tickets to O for the 7:30 PM show)?
Please post here if that's OK. We could go for a late dinner or just have drinks/snacks after.

I assume you mean 9:30 PM because you refer to dinner. Which night though?
If the Bellagio buffet is still open, I wouldn't mind eating there. Or perhaps I'll go a bit earlier to the buffet and finish up by 9:30pm. Anyone interested in that?
BTW, I have my FT Luggage Tag on my handbag, so B.O.L.O. for it!

Yes, that time and meeting spot works for me.
I would think a buffet would be a bad idea, though. It is rather difficult to have a conversation while people are going back and forth to gather food. Also, buffets at that hour are full of old food.

Sorry I didn't reply, I didn't have access to the FT when I was in Las Vegas, so I didn't see the later postings.
