So BigAl, like the Munsters.
_____
The Munsters? Did that 50 year old TV show just get to the UK?
The Munsters was harmless idiocy. The Kardashians, for some inexplicable reason, are the fodder of gossip and voyeuristic interest. They are the epitome of America's vapid pursuit of nothingness.

I am having a hard time listing my favorite cities in order. I know I'd put Rome first, but am finding it challenging to rank the others. And I know I am overthinking this, but can't seem to mix the smaller towns within the larger cities, so I'm making two lists, neither of which are in order.
Cities:
Rome
Paris
Venice
Munich
Prague
Vienna
Florence
London
Antwerp
Madrid
For smaller towns:
Brugge
Cesky Krumlov
Berchtesgaden (area, not the town itself)
Cochem
Soglio
Wengen
Rothenburg
Chania
Bath
Toledo
Cities:
Rome
Paris
Venice
Munich
Prague
Vienna
Florence
London
Antwerp
Madrid

Brugge
Cesky Krumlov
Berchtesgaden (area, not the town itself)
Cochem
Soglio
Wengen
Rothenburg
Chania
Bath
Toledo

Some comments make no sense.
Most people want to go to BIG cities in Europe because that is were they can examine cultural pursuits--museums, plays, opera, ballet, concerts; dine in top restaurants, visit famous sites like the Eiffel Tower or Piazza San Marco.
There is also public transportation in big cities.
I don't want to rent a car on holiday.
I work in one of the largest cities in the US and I spend a lot of my time in commuter traffic.
Driving is the last thing I want to do in a foreign location.
And, quite frankly it is none of your bloody business how I like to travel anyway.
