Favorite vacation destination?

I just read the posts regarding least favorite destinations. Am in the process of picking next year's vacation place and am looking for ideas.

So far, Jackson Hole, Grant Teton N. P. area, have been 4 times.

Each one longer. Love to hike, fish and just BE there. A great place for me.

Now we are going to some new places next week, let you know if anything takes its place as #1.

The National Parks - all of them!! Glacier, Yellowstone, Yosemite, Zion, Grand canyon . God really made some spectacular sights to see.

I've also been to Australia and I'm going back there - the country is awesome and the people are really nice...

In the US, it's tough to pick one. For cities, N.Y. or D.C., scenery N. Ca., family fun, Disney, nices beaches, SW Michigan, yes Michigan. (Hey, I sound like a commerical). And I'll always plug my hometown, Chicago, which I'd love even if I didn't live here. In Europe, Paris and Southern France.

How can anything top NYC! It is THE greatest city in the US. The stimulation is incredible! Paris is also in my top 5 places along with Miami and L.A., but NYC is still the best.

SYDNEY!!!! South Island New Zealand, esp. Queenstown, Kauai, Grenadine Islands. Can't beat Australia. Forget about the long plane trip (if you are from the US) and go! You won't regret it.
