Calling all Forumers whove been to the USA/Canada

Did not bother with a phone when I was in the states.  Used skype to call back home to family.  There is ample free Wifi all over the place in the states.  Just watch some Hotels though as they charge for it.

You can buy a phone and a months prepaid very cheaply as well if you need it. Little as $10us but do research first.

You can also get different cards through travelgear.com.au which I use. just depends on the time you will be spending there vs the card then. have had no problems & make it my own hotspot. as ringo says tho watch the hotels as do charge if not included.

Cant tell you anything on NY or DC

Vegas, you cant leave there without going to M&M world and the coke superstore (both on the strip near the bellagio, iirc). Other than that just dont get lost in the maze of casinos or get whisked away by one of the multitude of prostitutes. ;)

LA, massive city, Disneyland and Universal Studios are must do's, Knotts Berry Farm (theme park) and Six Flags are also fun (another theme park). Might be too late but see if you can snaffle nosebleed section tickets to a Clippers game, only 30 a pop and a great experience, dont try the Lakers though, Nosebleed section tixs are 180 ::). If you're looking for something really cool to do go to the Warner Brothers Studios and get a guided tour (paid ofc) You might get to see a person you know. Youll see the sets of the Mentalist and the Big Bang Theory (if not filming, which they usually are) the sets of Two and Half Men, youll sit on the friends couch and youll see so much other stuff it isnt funny.  great place! :)

Hope that helps!
