Your top 5 cities visited

#1 Postby MusicCityMan » Tue Feb 20, 2007 7:54 pm

I just thought of making this list and seeing how many of us would participate..

I'm just curious what everyones top 5 spots to visit are. They don't have to be vacation spots. They can be a city u really liked even if u were only there a day or 2 for a business meeting or things like that.

My list is short.. Since I haven't had the priviledge to go anywhere lol..

1. Nashville
2. Miami Beach
3 Tampa
4. Melbourne/Cocoa beach
5. Winter Haven/Haines City area

Top 5:
1. Myrtle Beach, SC - June 2001 and August of 1999 (first time around very nearly experienced a 'cane)
2. Branson, MO - June 2005 - Very, VERY nearly met Garrett (wx247) on this trip but our schedules conflicted big time
3. Daytona Beach, FL - June 2002 and June 2003 (Both of these were with my church student ministry which was an awesome experience)
4. Washington DC to NYC to Niagara Falls, NY/ON - Started 6/11/02 (The only reasons this even ranks behind Daytona are 1) because I experienced these cities, while having a cold that really didn't get better until I returned to Cincinnati, and 2) I had just returned from my first trip to Daytona Beach and had just had time to do laundry and repack, was barely home 12 hours)
5. Orlando, FL - September 1998 - Got out of school for this trip, because the following week I was having surgery on my back, and the parks weren't crowded
Honorable mentions go to Norfolk, VA in 2003 and to my Caribbean cruise in 2004. The 2004 trip doesn't rank in the top five because I visited 3 cities during my time aboard the ship...and I didn't see much of either of them. And Norfolk is very close to making the list, and if it were a top 6 list, it would have.

My list is boring, LOL

Pensacola, FL
Memphis
Jacksonville, FL(10 years ago now, yikes)
Biloxi(more than 10 years)
Birmingham
Chattanooga
Gatlinburg
Mobile
Atlanta
Montgomery

I think that's it. Went to a ton of East Coast cities(Washington D.C. the main one), and Canada, in 1989 but I have no memory since I was only a baby. Planning to go to NYC in Late May and if that is a fun trip, then maybe more cities in 2008. Really want to go to, besides NYC, Chicago and Washington D.C. and eventually London.

Breeze... I love Flagstaff, too!

I desperately want to get down to the Gulf Breeze area. It would make it an even more memorable trip to see Sandi and the rest of the members if I ever get down that way.
