What is your favorite city in America....and why?

  1. My favorite city is Las Vegas (the strip). There are many things to do there contrary to what people think. Casinos and clubs are actually at the bottom of the list. The best part about Vegas is...you really dont have to rent a car!! Everything..is in walking distance. Promotes great health...right?!? Or Yeah right?!?

  2. I'm planning to visit oh-so-nasty LA in the next couple of weeks so remember this post is pre-visit. So as of yet I would have to say my favorite city is Orlando,FL. The only real reason I like it there is because while living and working in Tampa for many years, Orlando was always a great, much needed, quick get-away. Sometimes you wanna be able to go somewhere without seeing the same people (co-workers, main social crowd, etc.) You can even let loose a little if you want and you don't have to worry about being "watched." If I just wanted a place to go "out of town" I could go there without having to spend an enormous amount money on gas nor hotel. I could go there, have a several hours of fun, and then enjoy the long/short ride home in an hour or less clearing my head from a week of chaos. I actually considered the ride home a great refresher preparing me for whatever comes next.
