Ever since I saw that episode where Grissom rides the coaster on top of New York, New York I’ve wanted to visit.)

To make our plans, we did what every member of the MySpace generation would, and hit the Internet.

Then we searched the hotel site, and jackpot! We realized if we booked the air and lodging separately we could get roundtrip tickets from the east coast and a five-night stay at the aforementioned New York, New York for the cheapie price of $550 per person. See, sometimes it pays to shop around. Now, if I only had as much luck at the tables….
