Canadian Dollar Crashing!

Expedia.com
This isn’t EXACTLY Vegas related but kind of. Being from Canada and the fact Vegas is in the States means I watch the dollar closely, espically with an upcoming trip planned. So over the last week the Canadian dollar has been on a free fall down. It’s been one of the worst weeks in history for the dollar which really sucks because I havn’t bought any american money for my January trip so its gunna be costing a lot more then it would of a few months ago. The confusing part is its AMERICA’s economy on the free fall not Canada’s (Canada’s isn’t perfect but in better shape then America at the moment) so I don’t get why its our dollar falling…. not the other way around. Anyways, the “experts” say it should bounce back a little by the end of the year so I think I’m just gunna sit and wait and as soon as it jumps buy what I can.

Lol, I know thats a long time away but I thought this was as good of time as any to make my announcement about my latest trip to Sin City. I’ll fill you in on the details that have been worked out so far.

Dates: Jan 30- Feb 3 or 4th, I havn’t completely decided on a return date yet… we’ll see what happens there. But flights will be like they always have been, fly in early in the morning and fly out late at night.

Hotel: It’s looking like the Rio will be the hotel of choice this time, mainly because I can get a very nice suite for about 1/3 of the normal price. And the fact some of the other people coming with us are staying at the Palms helps.

Events: UFC 94, the reason for the trip! St. Pierre vs BJ Penn, gunna be an EPIC event, can’t wait for it. And most likely will be going to Love the Cirque De Soleli show at the Mirage. And Joe Rogan’s comedy show providing he has one that weekend. And probably at least 1 round of golf in there somewhere

I’m pretty sure we will get a round of golf or 2 in there somewhere along the way. It looks like it will be a big group of us going for this one and its going to be the ultimate high roller trip for us. I’ve kinda made up a mock budget already for the trip and I plan on spending over double what it cost last time so it should be fun.
