Your go to vacation spots

Exactly. I know that we've talked about this in the past (and maybe I forgot) but if you haven't, YOU need to go to Key West. :headbange

Again, I haven't been to New Orleans, but I can't imagine a place like Key West where you walk into CVS on Duval Street, buy a six pack and crack it open walking down the sidewalk. You can walk anywhere in that town at any hour of night and feel safe too.


yeah, Key West is actually my number one destination spot right now with Yellowstone National park close behind. Colorado is close as well. Like to do New Orleans as well. I need to get to work

I love both places I'd take New Orleans over Vegas personally.

There's just something about being able to drink in the streets and walk around bar to bar hearing great music everywhere. Plus the food is just insane.

Do they harass you with strip club flyers in N.O. as they do in Vegas? That got a bit old in Las Vegas when I went there two months ago.

New Orleans is fantastic. Been there several times. Never with the family but it really has so much to offer and i wouldnt hesitate to take them.

Coconut Grove in Miami is a great spot too. Crandon Park Beach is a short drive. Stay in the Mayfair rite in the Grove.

No flyers, but anytime you walk by one of the clubs there's usually some dude out on the street trying to persuade you to go in. And sometimes some chick wearing practically nothing will be hanging out in the doorway. It's quite the scene. If that's not your deal though you can just avoid that end of Bourbon.

Make sure to go snorkeling. Actually fly in to Miami and drive down, Drive is beautiful and you should stop and check out some of the other keys along the way.
Snorkeling is great in Key Largo Welcome to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park - Key Largo, Florida Keys (http://www.pennekamppark.com/)
Dry Tortugas trip is awesome.
Key West really does not feel like the USA

I can attest to this. Had a convertible for our trip. Enjoyed the drive down in the dark and the drive out in the daylight. Just absolutely gorgeous.

Thinking about a cruise in the summer. They have ships that leave New Orleans so I could drive down there and then get on the ship! Prices are actually pretty good and I'd love to go snorkeling
