places you refuse to go to

everyone is always talking about where they have been and where they would like to go to.

is there anyplace you have been to that you wouldnt go back to?, or a place you have never been to, and simply refuse to travel to?

I don't like to go back to the same place simply because I don't have time and finances for that. The new places are always calling my name

I would never return to Rosarita Beach - hated it. That's it -- never been anyplace else I can think of that I wouldn't go back to if I had unlimited travel time.

Disney World. Never never never again.

We never go back to same place because like FainaAgain said, New places are always calling.

Too many places to see and experience, not enough time of money.

Another vote "for" Rosarita Beach. We drove down for half a day to visit friends who had a timeshare there. That was half a day too long!

Refuse is a little strong, but I definitely would try to avoid any destination where I am likely to get sick from the water or food.

One exception--Egypt.

The Jersey shore. I'd rather spend the weekend in my basement.

Las Vegas. I have absolutely no desire to go there - too busy, I don't like gambling, and I'm not a night person. No thanks!

Cabo San Lucas. I would go back if we could return to the dusty little village we went to in 1979, but wouldn't go there now.

Las Vegas. It holds no appeal to me. And I hate gambling.

Seaside, Oregon and Las Vegas. If I am lucky I will not have to return to either one in this lifetime

Is this question limited to the United States? Or the entire world?

I really didn't like Nassau in the Bahamas. The beaches were beautiful, but the town was definitely lacking . . .

Pugsly: I am curious what part of the Jersey Shore you hated. There are over 100 miles of beaches and some areas are really beautiful. Cape May has a beautiful beach and it's a lovely, quaint town. I spent many summers down at the NJ shore and love it. Yes, there are some towns I would stay away from - but the majority of the coastline is beautiful.

sera--IMO, it is the tackiest place on earth. It is a carnival atmosphere, but not in a good way at all. I am so thankful that even our teens don't care for it.
