Overall, the trip was great.  The Excalibur was a decent hotel.  The shows were good.  The atmosphere was fun.  I’d go again.  The only thing I’d do differently next time is pay a bit more for our flights.  It took us four planes to get there, and four planes to get home.  On the way home, the second last plane got delayed, causing us to miss our last plane.  The good news, it was Delta’s fault, so we got a free hotel and meals in Detroit, and a flight out the next day.  Not all that bad.
