    I'm from New York City, Brooklyn to be exact, what's the best thing about it? Everything!!!! I can get a great slice of pizza on every corner of the city, Lady Liberty is our guardian, Times Square the crossroads, the Brooklyn Bridge a Seventh Wonder, the people are tough and take no nonsense. It's a city so nice they named it twice. . It's a concrete jungle where dreams are made of, there is nothing you can't do. Let's here it for New York.

    But you can't buy a coke over 16 oz.... :sad:

    True LOL,, good thing I don't drink soda.

    Chicago, need I say more? Beaches. Gorgeous downtown. Beautiful Suburbs. Lake Michigan. Sears Tower (which I refuse to call Willis Tower). The Taste. I could go ON & ON.

    Beaches??? It's a lake man

    ^^^My mom tried to convince me, if you can't see the other side it's not a lake. whatevs! It's a lake.

    I grew up in a small town in Northern Utah ( Morgan, Utah). I loved growing up there. I lived on a small farm. The schools were small so you knew everyone. My graduating class was 112. My parents still live there and I love to go visit often. I love driving down the road and having everyone wave to you. Sadly, housing has boomed there and land is expensive there.

    Exactly. I live in Toronto now and so the "Beach" is Lake Ontario. NYC is not known for its beaches, but we got them and the metropolitan area is surrounded by the ocean, so I just have a hard time getting with the lake beach.

    The weather is great here in Fort Myers , beaches, Gators!, swamps and nature preserves are all good things but for me the best is being able to watch the Red Sox come to town in the spring.

    The mountains, the "Rock" the "Flats" " Royal Blue". These are the hottest spots for four wheeling. The views are amazing!

    The beautiful 900 year old cathedral. Architecture and culture in Durham are the reasons we have so many tourists even though its a very small city.


    I love Durham, it's very pretty and small enough to walk around.

    From Scotland myself. Nothing more I need to say.

    the palm trees, the sun, people still roller blade down the street, and drink coffee in the front yard with the neighbors. it's expensive across the board, so it keeps the riff raff out.
