Is Hearst Castle worth going to? -

Ok im going to Pismo Beach over Christmas break with my mom. Well we were looking into going to Hearst Castle but is it really worth it? Also, if it is what tour should we take?Thanks.

Yes it is worth it. It s on the list of things you must see before you die.Make a day of it and take a morning and afternoon tour.Tour 1 and Tour 2.If you can only do one, Tour 2 takes you into Hearst s library and bedroom.http://www.hearstcastle.org/tours/tour_2��Make sure you pre-buy your tickets to get reservations.BTW the swimming pools were used in the movie Spartacus

Oh, most certainly! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND it!I agree with Joe C. Take the morning and afternoon tour.

yas take all of them in one day

Is downtown Las Vegas a safe place to live? -

Specifically, the area around Las Vegas Blvd. and Fremont St. I don t have a car and would using public transportation too.

It is probably the worst place you could live in Vegas. Someone once told me that the closer you are to the stratosphere, the more unsafe it is. Which is true, I ve lived in Vegas for almost 2 in a half years and downtown is where a lot of crime occurs. Basically, anything near UNLV is ghetto. The south side of town is A LOT more safe. Where I live, near CSN-Henderson campus, there is no crime at all. I searched for police reports near my address and there was 0 activity for 6 months.

No. Adafa is correct, but there are also scary white people. Let s not pick on race here people. Downtown is a scary place with scary people, no matter what their race. Alot of homeless, drug addicts, high crime. The location you describe is one of the worst in the city. Are you a college student, or just vacationing here? If you are looking to move here, make sure that you pull up a copy of the CAT system bus map first, and try to find an apartment along the line. The south part of the valley is very close to all the action on the strip, and the bus ride is a direct shot. If you will be working in the downtown area, then make sure that you find housing either on the West side or East side. Both are older areas, but close to downtown, and safer to live than downtown. No place is 100% safe, but just stay away from the immediate downtown area...not safe for a nice white boy, assuming you re nice.

Outside of the tourist part of Downtown it can be very dangerous. A lot of muggings happen there. It is not as well protected as the area around the Strip. If you want, you can live on the strip but pay a hefty price. There are some rentals and high end condos along it. It is best to have a car as Vegas is not that easy to get around using public transportation, at least in my opinion.

North LV isn t that great. anything around MLK is pretty much ghetto but past it is the newer side of north town. I honestly think you re better off staying away from downtown or the strip.

Not the greatest place to live. There are other better places with CAT public transportation.

North Las Vegas is worst the South Vegas for sure!!! You just have to be careful of your surroundings!

noo downtown is really ghetto and theres scary black people!

Is there a way i can take a subway in philly from logan square to lincoln financial field? -

It s called Logan Circle by the way. Just walk to Broad st. and take to subway south to the stadium. See http://www.septa.org

Yes, walk a few blocks east to Broad St and get on the Broad Street subway going south.The quickest way to Lincoln Financial Field is south along the SEPTA Broad Street Subway Line. Exit at the last southbound stop, Pattison Avenue. From Center City, North Philadelphia, South PhiladelphiaTake the SEPTA Broad Street Subway Line south to Pattison Avenue.

yep your going to go 19th and cherry catch the 33 to 15th and market and catch the subway to pattison ave. Or you could walk straight down the parkway to 15th and market too.Its lie a 7 minute walk btw

What hotel should i stay at in atlantic city(read on)? -

In may (i know it is early) I am going to be going to AC and i was looking ahead of time to see where is a good place to stay. I would like to stay in a nice hotel for two nights it will be four of us... for under 900.00 or so... id like there to be a casino and club in it..it will be for a 21st birthday. It needs to be close to the ocean and board walk and easy to get around to everything. i was thinking the Trump taj mahal??? Anybody know any good places? I want to stay some place REALLY nice.. Thanks!!

The Taj Mahal is very nice. I stayed there about 2 years ago. They also recently put up a new tower and the rooms there (Chairman tower rooms) are supposed to be amazing.You might also want to check out Caesar s. They opened up a new club (Dusk) a few months ago.

there are quite a few sites that you can search that will likely show you great hotels at the best prices available. check out the website BookMe and you will be able to compare prices on all the reputable travel sites in just a couple minutes. it s very convenient and will save you a bunch of time and money. Also, make sure you buy them online... otherwise they charge much higher fees for phone orders. good luck.
