Washington Xmas lights displays in King County? -

When we lived in Reno, Nevada, we used to go to Hidden Valley for over-the-top Christmas lights displays because all the people there were rich competing for an annual award. No neighborhoods for miles was unlit.But now that we live in Washington, we don t know where to look, Preferably something around Tacoma, Seatac, Kent, Federal Way, other King County areas. Sofar all we ve found is a small area in Des Moines,

Probably the most well-known is Candy Cane Lane. A particularly unique display of lights is the annual parade of Christmas Ships. You can check the schedule and find a convenient beach to watch the ships go by or can book a spot on one of the boats.

Why shouldnt a college student student get a parking ticket? -

If they deserve it, they should get it.

Who said so? what do u mean by that? Whether u r a student, a lawyer, a doctor, or taxi driver, u should be treated the same. You violate ,then u get a ticket. We all have to follow tthe rules regulations. I hope i answerd your question appropiately.

He shouldn t get a parking ticket if he doesn t have a car, and doesn t use anyone else s car.

I can t think of any reason....

Is Las Vegas a city or a town?My uncle keeps saying it is a town,but can you help me prove him wrong? -

I personally think that it is a city due to its mass poplulation and how people visit there often.

Las Vegas is a city, but the odd thing about it is that while the Las Vegas strip (Las Vegas Blvd. between Sunset and Sahara) is considered Las Vegas and all the strip resorts have Las Vegas postal addresses; the Las Vegas strip is not in the city of Las Vegas. It s mostly in the unincorporated townships of Paradise and Winchester. City of Las Vegas begins just north of where the strip ends, at Sahara Ave.Added: cities have some form of independent government... there is a mayor, there are city ordinances, and a police department. Towns don t have any form of government; they re under the umbrella of county, state and federal governments. So that s how you know Las Vegas is a city; they have Mayor Oscar Goodman and other governmental employees.

Las Vegas is a city. I have never been to Vegas but it seems to me that kind of a place would be a city. I have lived in a town before, and towns can be rather small, and certainly not bustling with activity, have large buildings, etc. To me Las Vegas is a city even before this question was brought up. There is something to consider here, a lot of people when they think of American cities, they think of the large cities like New York, Chicago, Seattle, LA, Houston, etc. But an area doesn t necessarilly have to be a large place into to be deemed as a city. There are several towns not large enough to be considered big cities, but too big to be considered quaint little hamlets. Annapolis, the state capitol even though it is dwarfed by both nearby Baltimore and Washington is actually considered a small city. And there are a few other spots in Maryland that are large enough to be considered as small cities, as I am sure this is the case with every state. So I don t know where Vegas ranks in the realm of large cities, but I do know that a city while it has to obviously take up more area than a small town, it doesn t have to be a large sprawling urban area to be considered a city of any stature.

It is a city...with over 1/2 million people. See site below. See 2nd site to read the divfference between a city and a town. see that Las Vegas is an incorporated city with a city government.

The state of nevada has it incorporated as a city on March 16, 1911. It is not a subjective thing. It is a legal definition. Obviously in 1911 the city had a very small population.------------Nowadays the city has a population of roughly 600K in a county with population 2 million. Most of the better known casinos are outside of the city limits. They built the Stratosphere in 1996 to be inside the city limits to see if they could take advantage of some of the money pouring into the unincorporated region of the city. The Stratosphere has had limited advantage.-----------The major casinos inside the city limits that had gaming revenue over $72 m last year are:(1) The Golden Nugget is the dominant casino along Fremont Street.(2) The Stratosphere is just north of the strip (the Sahara is outside the city limits(3) Palace Station casino within a mile of the strip(4) Arizona Charlies Decatur Avenue [in a very ethnic portion of the city](5) Santa Fe [in a northern suburb(6) Rampart Casino in Marriot resort in Summerlin(7) Suncoast Casino near the Marriot -----------------------------All the other casinos are outside of the city limits. Besides the strip the casinos like Red Rock and Texas Station and Boulder Station are just outside of the city limits.

8 out of 10 people, will tell you it s a City. Myself i see it as a town, seeing it s no where as large as some City s that i have lived in. While living in europe, to me it s a large town.

is there a difference? but I have always heard it as the city of vegas :)

Train ticket from Seattle to Spokane? -

I am planning to take the train from Seattle to Spokane after the New Year. Is there some where I can find discounted or inexpensive tickets?

If you are referring to Amtrak, their best prices are buying online:http://www.amtrak.com/

Hows can i get tickets to live tapings of wizards of waverly place in LA? -

You can go to tvtickets.com to see if any are available. I don t know the shooting schedule, but shows like that are done way in advance, and they may have enough episodes in the can to keep the show on for another year or two.But keep checking online.

Is there any bridge/tunnel from new jersey to NYC where you do not have to pay a toll eastbound? -

No. All Port Authority owned crossings between New Jersey and New York City have a toll eastbound.And all bridges on the Hudson south of Albany also have a toll. You would have to drive north along the westside of the Hudson (not using the Thruway), cross the Dunn Memorial Bridge and then head south along the eastside of the Hudson to avoid a toll.

No, there are none. Therefore, if you want to drive into the City, I would suggest parking your car Jersey City or Hoboken and take the PATH train into the City.The links below show the location of parking garages in both cities.Grove Street Stationhttp://maps.google.com/maps?near=Grove+S��Exchange Place Stationhttp://maps.google.com/maps?near=Exchang��Pavonia/Newport Stationhttp://maps.google.com/maps?near=Pavonia��Hoboken Stationhttp://maps.google.com/maps?near=Hoboken��Journal SquareParking is available at the Journal Square Transportation Center on two decks through a privately owned parking facility, LAZ Parking. For additional information, please call (201) 216-6744.Good luck

Unfortunately, the answer is no.You can park in Weehawken for $8 and take the Manhatan ferry over though.Weekday before 10am $8 Weekday after 10am $10 Weekends $10 Premium Lot Rate $15 Monthly w/ ferry pass $140 Monthly w/o ferry pass $175

Not if you drive. There are tolls for all cars crossing from NJ to NYC by a bridge or tunnel.If you take a bus or train, then you do not pay a toll, but you do have to pay for the bus ticket or train ticket.

That would be the Verrazano Bridge. It s the only toll bridge on the Hudson River/NY Bay that is like that.

Is New York the most overrated city in the world? -

I ve never been there, so I m not saying I dislike the city, but the city can t really be as great as everyone is lead to believe, right? Tall buildings...sure, but people make it out to be a magical place where all your dreams can come true, and if you move there, you would never think about living anywhere else. Your thoughts?

New York is in fact - Great !(if you have money)Paris is the one that s overrated(smells like urine)San Francisco is my Favorite city Mexico City can be loads of fun.

I m not sure about the move there and never want to live anywhere else part. I live in Dallas and don t care to move to NYC, (partly because of the weather) but NYC is an extremely exciting, interesting place to visit. You can t possibly experience it all in one trip, or two trips, or even the 5 trips I ve made to the city. You feel the heartbeat of the city as soon as you step off the plane.Go and see for yourself. I don t think you ll be disappointed. It really lives up to its reputation.

When you are the largest and most densely populated city in the country, yet keep the population safe to the point that the suburbs are more dangerous (IE Newark) I d say it deserves it s hype. The, for it s size, has a carbon footprint that rivals middle american towns. We have everything we want when we want it. Hungry at 2:30AM? Not a problem, anything you could want is within grasp.

nyc is truly the best city ever and ive been to different cities all over da U.S and many other countries. There sumthing that u feel in ny that u you cant get anywhere else L.A, Atlanta,San Francisco it doesnt matter where,ny is the concrete jungle where dreams are made of.Theres absolutely nothing u cant do in ny!

@ ManJust because you lived here for 4 years, that hardly makes you a legitimate source on the city. You were just another transplant here. Dreams only come true if you go out there and get them. You have to hustle in NYC. Nothing comes knocking at your door. But there are opportunities here. Its a lot more than just tall buildings, and history. Its a culture, a community, a sense of belonging. THIS IS THE NYC WE GREW UP IN.. Something you will never understand. See trailer clip below...http://downtowncalling.com/site/trailer/

new york is a great place, but so expensive, its not the type of place to make acting or modeling dreams come true, but with a steady income and compromises, it can be good.

NYC is the 13th most populated city in the world with a number of 8.3 million people. But it s the most populated in the U.S

It s not just the tall buildings that make New York what it is...It s the atmosphere and vibe that you can t get anywhere else.The feeling of excitement you get there can only be felt by the individual and can t be explained in words. There is so much to do and see that you probably won t be able to experience it all in one lifetime.Each time I go to the city I see thousands of excited tourists having their dream of visiting New York fulfilled. The joy in their eyes is clear and you can tell they re excited to be here.I m so grateful for living by one of the greatest cities in the world.It s not overrated at all.

People who talk about New York have never been to San Francisco. San Francisco has higher paying jobs, more beautiful city, its much much cleaner, and way more tourist attractions and nearby places to go to. San Francisco holds the award for best tourist city according to Conde Nast Traveler. New York is crap, I should know, I lived there for 4 years. I m originally from Florida so I view them both as an outsider coming in, and NY is depressing compared to San Francisco. There s nothing really unique about New York that makes it more fun than any other city out there. New York just has a lot of history, but aside from that, its not unique. I ve been to Tokyo and Bangkok and once you ve seen one big city you ve seen them all. New York is definitely overrated. For the 13th year in a row, the readers of a major travel magazine (Conde Nast Traveler magazine) have voted San Francisco as the best city to visit in the United States. http://www1.voanews.com/english/news/a-1��

Places in Center City Philadelphia (I dont have a car) where I could find a rug for the bathroom? -

I want one to go around the toilet and one for the floor but I have no idea of places close by to geth them.

There s a Ross on 8th and Market. That s also where the Gallery is. If you re into funky, artsy stuff...go to South Street. You could even check out Chinatown or Reading Terminal...but doubt they have what you re looking for. The gallery has K Mart as well. Hope that helps!

Get your SEPTA bus on!!!1417 Franklin Mills CirclePhiladelphia, PA 19154-3131(215) 281-9266
