I was just daydreaming a bit after a day of hellish weather here in Denver. I thought I'd see what everyone's thoughts are on this important issue:

What is your favorite vacation spot and why? :joker:

Steamboat Springs Colorado. Winter or summer it's great.

I went to Mallorja a looong time ago. It was so long ago that when I got there Richard Nixon was President, when I left, Geral Ford was! It was nice, but Steamboat has it beat!

My favorite spot is on a cruise ship. You visit different places but take your accommodations and meals with you.

Must have been that rainy Tuesday. Rained like that, or worse, all the time when I lived in Houston. But weird since coming to Denver. I'll take it over those months of snow, though.

Dunno if I have a real favorite spot. Pretty much anywhere with beaches with lounge chairs and drinks will do. Vegas is fun, too, with enough money.

Some places I've been to that I liked:
Big Island - amazing how clear the water is.
Kauai - water not as clear, but better beaches. A very mellow place.
Goa - Only here one weekend when I was working in Bangalore. Great beaches. Water was nicely warm in June. Should have been raining like crazy, but wasn't.
Paris - I love all those small cafes and restaurants.
Vegas - No explanation needed, is there?
Steamboat - I'm with allcash here, a great place. Really, my favorite ski area. Never been there in summer, so might have to check that out. Grassy ski runs make me depressed.
Glenwood springs has better springs than Steamboat, IMHO. But, there's not much else to do. I'll admit I love lazing in the hot springs when its snowing and the lifeguards are bundled up in parkas. Its just surreal.

I'd like to make it to Aruba sometime. Beaches AND casino's!

Even though we are younger than many of the residents, my wife and I love Palm Springs, California. We have been there twice and we were married there on our first trip in a park that was dedicated by Frank Sinatra to the City of Rancho Mirage, which is next door to Palm Springs. The mountain views and the feel of exclusivity make it nice for us. We tend to like places that everyone else may not like so much. Look up Cap Jaluca, am Island in the Caribbean. My friend is honeymooning there this summer and it looks like a great place.

We stopped here on a cruise and some of the crew members recommended a place called the blue hole. It was very cool place to swim with waterfalls and a couple of local guys " guided" us up the river about 400 yds and showed us all the cool spots. No one else was there. It was probably one of the best vacation experiences ever for me.

Clearwater Beach

If you're looking for fun, sun, and sand, Clearwater Beach has plenty of all three. Miles of silky, white sand and turquoise water are perfect for swimming, beachcombing, days spent relaxing on the beach and romantic walks at sunset. We love it. You can't go wrong with a vacation at Clearwater Beach.

We vote for Clearwater Beach Florida!

Take care.

Hands down it's Maui, Hawaii --- the blue skies and clear water and beautiful exotic flowers.

Las Vegas or anywhere in Europe.

I guess I'm a simple girl, or possibly not well traveled. Santa Cruz is just so relaxing to me. The sound of the waves and lazy days just seem to agree with me.
