（单词翻译）

Lupe: My mom is actually interested in going to Vegas. She's never been there and she knows you and I have been there quite a few times, so she was wondering maybe if we could give her some do's and don'ts about going to Vegas because she's never been there and I sort of explained to her some of the good things about Vegas and some of the things she shouldn't do, but I think I'm missing1 a few things. What do you think?

Kara: Well, I think the most important thing about Las Vegas is to wear comfortable shoes. You do so much walking there it's ridiculous2 so I think to wear flat comfortable shoes, tennis shoes, whatever you're most comfortable in. I've had many days or nights with blisters3 all over my feet, so that's the number one 'do': wear comfortable shoes.

Lupe: That's true. I did forget about that just because, you know, staying there either you take a cab4 everywhere, but most people want to do sightseeing and looking at the different hotels, it's a really beautiful place so she will be doing a lot of walking, so I'll definitely5 keep that in mind and let her know.

Kara: Another thing I would say is to wear comfortable clothing because when you walk into the casino, if you go in the summer, it's extremely6 warm there: a hundred degrees or more, and even in the middle of the night it's still that warm outside, but when you walk into the casinos, they have the air-conditioning set at seventy degrees, so outside you get really, really warm and then inside you start getting really cold, so it's good to dress in layers and to be comfortable whatever you're wearing.

Lupe: And remember the first time you and I went, I did think it was a bit too long of a trip so maybe I should tell her to keep it short because it can get really expensive after a few days.

Kara: Yeah, Vegas isn't a place you wanna be more than three days. You've had a enough gambling7, enough shows, enough sightseeing, it's about time to head home, so I would say to keep it short. It's close enough, you can always go back, but...

Lupe: And definitely bring enough money because after being there for four days the last time we were there, we did run out of money. So I should definitely tell her that.

Kara: That we did but your mom doesn't shop as much as us, so I think she'll do OK as long as she stays away from the slot8 machines.
