A woman always has Advil in her purse

But I small point and shoot camera is a good idea since the one on my phone isn't too good (Hubby is bringing his DSLR but won't be going to the convention with me).
The pools look fabulous and I know that temps in August in Las Vegas can be in the 100s (we were there for our 10th anniversary but stayed at the Bellagio across the street). For us musicians, their water shows choreographed to music are just beautiful.

Good idea about the snacks too, yes, food IS very expensive in Las Vegas, but there was a Walgreens down the street where you could buy snacks/breakfast items.
