If you get to Harrahs, you can grab a shuttle to Sam's Town. Once there, you can catch buses to the Fremont/California downtown, and you can also get to the San Remo, the Stardust & Bourbon St...buses run like clockwork, and they're free (give driver a buck). Only catch- all roads lead back toto Sam's Town- kind of like the Disney transportation Center, but while at Sam's, why not show mom the Wolf Show? Best free show in town...good buffet too.
Good VP too.
The shuttle schedule is available at the sams town website.
