What's your favorite destination. Is it somewhere you've been or is somewhere you'd like to go? i've just returned from a trip to Iceland, and right now, that is mine. Paris is very close, perhaps even tied, though.

I would like to go to Paris France, I have lived in Paris Tennessee and thou don't live there anymore it is one of my favorite spots to go to unwind, they have a replica of the Eifel Tower you can go find it on google maps , check it out 1oo feet tall, it's cool, And have the World's largest Fish Fry in April , people from all over the world, you can find it all over the internet. Au Revoir. Iceland would be nice with all this heat and humidity,
Probably BC and Vancouver Island, but I would love to go to Bora Bora
Disneyland
. Went there when I was a kid quite a few times and have wonderful memories of that place.
Paris.For it's beauty and vibrant atmosphere.Venice without the crowds.
I went to Auckland, New Zealand, twice years ago and I would love to go back.
i have cruised from Vancouver, B.C. to Sydney, Australia and it was great. We even have Australian friends that we dined with and are still friends with them
As a retired long-haul trucker, I have pretty much seen all of the USA. I have found no place I love more than where I am now, so there is nothing left in America I wish to see. (yes, I went to Hawaii and lived in Alaska).
I've traveled a great deal of Canada, but not much of the eastern part of the country.
Of all the places I have never been, I would most like to visit Ireland. It would take too long to list all the parts I wish to see, but Stonehenge is among those places.
Another place I would love to see is Scotland. There is a ruggedness in the rural areas that draws me to them.
Ah, but travel like that is now beyond me. Attached to an oxygen hose, here I stay.
Have a great one.
Since @Gerald64 mentioned a namesake (Paris Tenn./ Paris France)...I live in the Piedmont North Carolina...which means 'at the foot of the mountains." The namesake is in northern Italy. Italian food and a view of the Alps...mmmm.
As far as places I've been...I grew up in New York City...@Kenyon reminded me how nice Montreal is...and had a lot of fun in Nova Scotia and P.E.I.
I am in vancouver wa, and have been to the default vancouver spot. People rarely think of washington state when they hear vancouver. Saying washington is confusing as well. I want to go to australia and buy opals. And see the sea sponge that made the oxygen for the entire planet. I read that the only living specimens left are in australia.
Homedoggy you mentioned namesake yes lived in Paris that is Tennessee , now live in Milan, that is also Tennessee.no French or Italian except for pizza.
Gerald64 and homedoggy, since you spoke of Paris, TN and the Piedmont of NC, I checked out Chesterfield, and found that there is a Chesterfield in Derbyshire, England. I would like to see the British Isles. Perhaps as part of a cruise.
In my mind...I'm already there
You of more technical skills than I are going to have to tell me how to post a video. I've found a complement to this video.
Where is that homedoggy , that you are already there, Wish I was on Tennessee River,
James Taylor is singing about a perfect place he's been before and want to get back to.
Travel is always nice but I happy in God's little green acre... North Kakalaky . Kinda like Tennessee is to you.
Chesterfield in Derbyshire is famous for its crooked spire and gateway to the beautiful Peak District and Chatsworth House. Went sledging there one snowy winter as a kid, real magical.
Another song about Kakalaka,
A cottage on a bluff on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, between South Haven and Saugatuck. Water, sunsets, ruby red, moonlight on the water, quiet. No tv, no wi-fi. Reading, ballgames on the radio. Watching the water.
omg yeah . . . grew up north of there. Perfect description of best place in the world. Even in the winter!
Springrain: I can relate as I am also on Oxygen 24/7. I did go to Ireland about 6 years ago. I thought I could find a relative, but couldn't connect even 'tho surname took almost a page in the phone book! It is a beautiful, green country. Kissed the Blarney stone, "tested" Jamison, saw Cliffs of Moher. Flew over and then bus tour. People so very friendly and joyful.
Perhaps the library would have a video of the country and you could see some of the sights.
xnewyorker - I think google maps has a thingy that allows you to see sights "virtually" if you are unable to travel I guess this would be an alternative
