Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun. There are other things to do and September is a great time in New England. You could take lovely drives in the country and shop for antiques. Visit museums etc. Or Blackjack Baby!

also, watch yourself in Hartford - lots of it is well dodgy - loads of iffy drugsters and plenty gunplay at night. All the cities in CT are a bit scary, the rest of the state is very safe.

Agree! Hartford isn't the safest place to be late at night. But there is something about all the cities in CT. Changing bus in Hartford bus station is something I'll never forget! Scary! Nice during the day though.
