Where can some one find public showers in ILLINOIS without going to hotels?Thanx? -

Tim: Why do you want to go to a public sower? Not a good idea there are a lot of germs in them and you could get an infection or really sick.

Most truck stops along the interstates have public showers for the truckers and they are kept clean. How are they going to know if you are not a trucker?

21st BIRTHDAY IN LAS VEGAS? -

MAY 26 is My Birthday! and I will be celebrating it in Vegas! now what is the Best hotel I should stay in and do they have any birthday packages? I would like go to Palms or Ceasers but Palms more and what room should I get? and what club should I go to? and what Restaraunt should I go to? and where should I go to gamble although I dont really want to gamble but I will do it once just for the heck of it? and where should I go just to hangout? and how much money should I bring with me in all for My Birthday in Vegas in 2010?!

No birthday packages or birthday anything for that fact. You are on your own for that. Palms is pretty far off the strip and you would have to take a taxi or shuttle anytime you wanted to go to the strip. I normally recommend to party at the club in your hotel. That makes it much easier for you to get back to your hotel when you least want to travel. Too many restaurants to recommend. I don t know what your taste consists of. I recommend Caesars for it s location.

Sorry but NO birthday packages, everyone is there to celebrate something. Set your own budget for daily gambling and stick to it. Pick a show and purchase the tickets. Clubs are very very expensive for entrance fee, bottle fee, etc. You don t have to gamble to have fun. You can enjoy the eye candy, the neon lights and all the other attractions. Check out www.lvrj.com which is our local paper and click on entertainment, esp the neon section, where you will find more than enough to do.

Look at www.vegas.com or www.lasvegas.com to answer your ???Bring some serious cash its not cheap, get hotel reward cards lots of freebies with those.Stay away from the adult cards passed out on the street, bad service

Hmmmmmm it all depends on the hotel, BUT I know some hotels have party packs. Try looking it up on their website, but i really don t know.

1) Now what is the Best hotel I should stay in and do they have any birthday packages? No hotel has birthday packages, you will have to make up your own little package, i would say because i been to vegas millions of times either the Palms, Hard Rock Casino, Planet Hollywood or Mandalay Bay casino considering your age will be the best bet to see people your age around the hotel and pool area.. Caesar caters to the 30-80 year old crowd but a great casino but i think you and your friend will be better off at the ones i mentioned.2) And what club should I go to? I can get you into any club for free around town from Pure, Jet, XS, Tryst, Tao, Rain, Body English, Drais afterhours, email me and i will put you on my list and how many friends.3) And what Restaraunt should I go to? I like N9NE steakhouse inside the palms, Voodoo lounge inside the Rio hotel, Mortons steakhouse but these are some high end steakhouse places.. Or you can go to the cheesecake factory at caesars palace forum shop area4) Where to gamble, well if your not planning on serious playing then i will just gamble at whatever casino i m staying, usually i do better at downtown las vegas casinos..5) And where should I go just to hangout? For you guys i would say just walk the strip and check out the new casinos, go to caesars palace malls its awesome and check out the bellagio water show.6) How much money to bring?? How many days are you staying, if you not a gambler i would say $1000 with your rooms already paid should be good for a 3 day stay.

May I boast that Im off to Hawaii on Monday? -

Very excited as you can see...Any pointers for me?

Hawaii is tropical but bring a sweater and umbrella...the rainy season starts in December (remember, it is a warm rain, not cold). Cold is a relative term, because it is rarely below 70F during the day even in winter, but does get into the 60 s in the evening and early mornings.Bring t-shirts and shorts. If you wear sandals, Tevas, etc. you won t need many socks either except when you go to a nice restaurant or nightclub and even then a lot of people wear sandals. Dressing up is wearing an aloha shirt and pants. If you are going to an outer island, they are more quiet/casual and many don t even wear aloha shirts at all there.It is difficult to give you more advice when I don t know which island you are going to, or whether you are into culture, nightlife, sports or nature, and if you are renting a car, but assuming you are going to Oahu (and usually when people don t say which island, it is Oahu/Honolulu and its beach Waikiki for at least part of the time) here are some MUST DO s for you:You are also going at the very end of the Vans Triple Crown surfing competition on the North Shore, one of the top surfing contests in the world. They only hold the competition when the waves are good (huge) so you can t predict when they will hold the contest, but always professionals hanging out you can watch. It ends in mid-Dec.* Do you like snorkeling? Drive early (or take The Bus) to Hanauma Bay before too many tourists cloud the water with kicked-up sand and scare away the sea turtles and moray eels. Really amazing. You can rent snorkel equipment (don t buy equipment unless you have time to test it and return it if it doesn t fit and leaks) right from the snorkel rental concession on the beach. Go to the LEFT when you hit the beach for best snorkeling (most people will go to the right where the beach is wider* Next, think about hiking here, in the rain forest. Manoa Falls is right in back of Honolulu, against the Koolau Mtns in Manoa Valley. It goes uphill, make sure to wear Tevas or open hiking shoes you don t care about getting wet and full of mud, and wear repellent. Goes through a bamboo forest, giant ferns, orchids, etc. to a small pool and tropical waterfall. If you don t like the bugs and mud, you can hike up to the Diamond Head lookout for the amazing view of Waikiki and Honolulu, but this hike has a lot of stairs and is a bit hot and dry (you hike inside Diamond Head Crater...no tradewinds to cool you as it is too protected).http://www.hawaiiweb.com/html/hiking/man��* Make sure to see our beautiful dance in the islands...the hula. They have free shows right on Waikiki, near Duke s statue, about 3-4 times a week. They use high-quality hula schools, these are not poor dancers. On Friday evenings, there are free fireworks on the beach at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. You can try going to a Hawaiian Luau (Hawaiian beach barbecue) but they are crowded...and expensive, perhaps $80/person. However, they all have good entertainment.* Waikiki is the happening place on Fri and Sat evenings, everyone (and everything) happens on Kalakaua Avenue, the main street in Waikiki. If you are going to spring for one touristic meal, try Duke s which is right on the beach and not too expensive.http://www.dukeswaikiki.com/* Even if you don t have a car, you should try to make it to the other (windward) side of the island, which is the beautiful (and wet) side of the island. Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach are in the town of Kailua, considered the most beautiful on Oahu. Watch out for jellyfish here, in particular box jellyfish 7-9 days after the full moon.* If you are trying to watch spending too much $$$ for food (and it can be expensive since much of it is imported from the mainland and Asia), try the local food chains such as L L and Zippy s. You can buy packaged foods and take it to your room at the ABC Stores which are literally on every block in Waikiki. If you need to shop for gifts back home, buying in Waikiki can be expensive (mostly designer boutiques) so will want to go to Ala Moana Shopping Center which is adjacent to Waikiki on the west side (Hilton Hawaiian Village / Ilikai side). There are also cheap eats at the Ala Moana shopping center. For breakfast in Waikiki. try the Wailana Coffee House which has a special with eggs, bacon and all-you-can-eat pancakes with coconut syrup for incredibly cheap (I think it is $7.95 but not sure, jeesh just ate there). For a bit more, try Eggs N Things near the Trump Tower.* If you want to take surfing lessons, they are not that expensive, and Waikiki (especially in winter) is a great place to learn. The Hans Hedemen school is one of the best (and largest), most of the hotels point you towards them anyway.http://www.hhsurf.com/hh/* If you want a brewsky and want to listen to live cool music, there is a Gordon Biersch brewery in the Aloha Tower Marketplace, at the very end of the pier.http://www.gordonbiersch.com/restaurants��* With all the normal things to do and see (Pearl Harbor, Iolani Palace, Nuuani Pali Lookout, Bishop Museum, and all the sites in Waikiki) you become bored, consider going to central Honolulu to see their tropical Chinatown, particularly the food stalls in the Mauna Kea Marketplace (it is an indoors mall , rather hard to find, but is at the corner of Mauna Kea and King Streets).Aloha, and welcome to our islands!

Lucky you! Never been to Hawaii!My pointers for any traveler are:1. Talk to the locals! That s the difference between going as a tourist and actually getting to know the place you re visiting! Don t hole yourself up in a bubble with your traveling buddies--talking to locals you ll make a few friends and you also could get a few invites to cool stuff that tourists don t get invites to because they don t talk to locals! Lol.2. Don t say arrogant things to the locals when you talk to them! Remember it s easy to come off the wrong way so keep yourself in line. Don t complain about ANYTHING, and don t compare the place you re visiting to your home state/country. Even if you think it s harmless, it oftens comes off as very, very tactless.

yes you can, i would love to go

wwoooop woopp have fun, feel very free to boast :Dadvice? hmmmmenjoy yourself lol, i have no other advice having never been there

May I reply that I don t care. And if you are asking for pointers here s two of them.

Lucky you! I wish I was going!Have a great time!

Why did Camelot hotel get changed to Doubletree? -

Actually Doubletree doesn t buy hotels. It franchises.The owners of the hotel decided that it would be more beneficial to continue service with a chain then remain an independent hotel. They also must have decided that Doubletree was the brand best suited for their needs.

Doubletree bought the property
