I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions on what are the quintessential things to do in Chicago and also suggestions on really good places to eat that aren't too expensive.
Also, for Memorial Day weekend, one of my sisters and I are planning on going to Las Vegas. Does anybody have any suggestions on places to stay, shows to see, and places to eat?

i personally like Mandalay Bay, Luxor, and Excalibur because the rates are usually reasonable and all three are connected by pedways so you dont have to fool with parking/driving and can move on down the line. Husband and I liked the tournament of the kings show at the excalibur and then I (along with Allure magazine) recommend the spa at Mandalay Bay. Excellent shopping can be found all along the strip and just outside of town has outlet malls. It is worth the drive to see the Grand Canyon while you are out there.
