In a heartbeat: <BR>Florence <BR>Chicago (Big city, amazing restaurants, <BR> very clean & big hearted) <BR>San Francisco <BR>Santa Fe <BR> <BR> <BR>Been there, Done that: <BR>St. Moritz <BR>Mammoth, CA <BR>Empire State Building <BR>Venice (Tacky tourist!Stifling Humidity!) <BR>Kansas <BR>Berlin (rude & a bit racist)

Ouch! OCLlocal put Kansas on his "bad" list--my chosen home state. Actually, I should be grateful because I would hate for everyone to discover what a great place we have here for living and raising a family! We have clean air, plenty of water, ample electricity. It takes me three minutes to drive to work. The people here are fantastic--down to earth, yet progressive. We have wonderful flat plains. On a clear day, you CAN see forever (and as our state song claims "the skies are not cloudy all day!") Remember that Dorothy (from the Wizard of Oz) when transported to the dazzling, magical land of Oz couldn't rest until she could return home. There's no place like Kansas! <BR> <BR>Okay, here are my favorites: <BR>New York City (Manhattan)- I had heard how dangerous, dirty, and rude NYC was. We spent 10 exciting days there. My daughter says the best thing about New York is that you feel you are about to embark on an adventure there. <BR>Denver, Colorado and the surrounding area <BR>Rocky Mountains (simply majestic) <BR>Chicago <BR>Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota (wonderful climate in the summer) <BR> <BR>Once was wonderful, but I don't need to go back: <BR>Asheville, North Carolina and the Smoky Mountains (beautiful area) <BR>Cancun <BR>Dallas, TX <BR> <BR>

Well, Rose, it just might interest you to know just how utterly shocked I was when I first crossed the line into Kansas on my way across the country. Lawrence, Topeka and the Kansas City area (and probably a few others I can't remember) were surrounded by beautiful, small green mountains on both sides of the main highway (I-70?) for quite a bit of my drive across your state years ago! I just couldn't believe it!! "This is KANSAS?" I kept repeating to myself?!? But, unfortunately, after awhile, it did become flat and barren for the rest of the trip. But, my, my -- upon entering your state in the beginning -- what an absolute pleasant surprise!!

I beg to differ about Washington, D.C. being a place to visit only once. Aside from great restaurants and a great hotel (The Madison), there's so much to see and do there that you could visit several times. The Smithsonian takes a week if properly examined. And who says you can't see it all over again? If nothing else, enjoying the city, great dining and the surrounding area makes it a repeat place to visit.

Places to return, again and again: <BR> <BR>1. ITALY, the most beautiful place on earth, IMHO. <BR>2. ENGLAND, having been there 6 times, each visit is a new encounter. <BR>3. NAPA, every year there's a new winery to check out and a new crop of Cabs to sample. <BR>4. Washington, D.C., Great hotel (The Madison), great restaurants and even greater museums. <BR>5. San Francisco <BR> <BR>Never again: <BR> <BR>Actually, San Diego must be the most boring city in California. I live in LA so maybe that's why it's so bla. <BR> <BR>Sea World is a major disapointment though the San Diego Zoo is worth seeing.

Been there, done that: <BR>Fort Lauderdale <BR>Las Vegas <BR>San Antonio <BR>Baltimore <BR>FLORIDA <BR>WDW <BR> <BR>Done and gonna do again: <BR>Chicago (go at least twice a year) <BR>Boston <BR>Atlanta (Buckhead, Midtown) <BR>Highlands, NC <BR>Germany <BR>Austria <BR>Canada <BR> <BR>Gonna do this summer and can't wait: <BR>Seattle <BR>

I have a hard time with Washington DC as well, notwithstanding that there ARE certainly some unique and impressive sites. <BR> <BR>And if I could only take 5 trips for the rest of my life, I would take every single one of them to Paris.

Well, I've gotta toss in my two cents worth to this absolutely fun post! <BR> <BR>Once was enough: <BR>Myrtle Beach <BR>Jamaica <BR> <BR>Take me back, PLEASE! <BR>New Orleans <BR>Florida Keys <BR> <BR>Thanks to GOL for starting this.

Hello, <BR> <BR>Much like never having a pizza I didn't like, I think I would always rather be anywhere but @ work! <BR> <BR>So, I'd go back to anyplace 2-3 times as long as it doesn't have anything to do with work. <BR> <BR>These lists do remind me of "one man's meat-another's poison". <BR>Mahalo y'all, <BR>Kal

One time only: <BR> Miami <BR> Fiji (although it was just after a cyclone so it was pretty ugly but didn't like the peddlers) <BR> Cancun <BR> Caracus <BR> Mazatlan <BR> Amergris Caye, Belize <BR> <BR> <BR>Go back again and again: <BR> New Zealand <BR> Australia <BR> Cook City and Red Lodge, Montana <BR> Canadian Rockies <BR> London (if you like theatre) <BR>

Okay, I'm curious. Has anyone tabulated all the choices? I'd be interested in seeing what the count is. It seems like Fodors would want to know what the readers consider the most popular/least popular destinations are.

Return again and again <BR>San Francisco (including north to Mendocino and south through Monteray Bay) <BR>Boston, Nantucket, <BR>Beaufort South Carolina, <BR>almost anywhere in Italy or Spain, <BR>Ireland, <BR>Once was enough- <BR>Savannah <BR>Nassau <BR>Miami <BR>Los Angeles <BR> <BR> <BR>

Don't need to go back: <BR>Hong Kong <BR>San Fran <BR>Atlantic City <BR>Statue of Liberty <BR>WDW--Magic Kingdom <BR> <BR>Will always go back: <BR>Philadelphia (from there) <BR>Tokyo/Sapporo--can't live there, love to visit <BR>New Zealand (anywhere but Aukland) <BR>Scotland (anywhere) <BR>WDW--only MGM <BR>Rohoboth Beach, DE

This is such a great topic--I love it! I noticed that no one put "Ireland" in the "never go back" category (I could be wrong). I'm going soon and I'm just curious if anyone WOULD put it in the never to return category?

This is neat... <BR> <BR>Places not to go back: <BR>Detroit <BR>Atlanta <BR>Dallas <BR>LA <BR>Houston <BR>Mexico...been 4 times...it's enough <BR>Cruise <BR>Orlando <BR>Miami <BR> <BR>Place to go in a heart beat: <BR>San Francisco <BR>Napa Valley <BR>Meir Woods(redwoods) <BR>Yosemite <BR>Chicago <BR>Boston <BR>Florence(Italy, not Alabama) <BR>Paris(bad - Eifel tower blows) <BR>Vienna <BR>Northern Michigan(best golf in County...yes Michigan) <BR>New York <BR>DC <BR>Small towns, country side, north of Nice <BR>Hawaii - it's not overrated

Was again worth one trip <BR> <BR>Punta Cana, Dominican Republic nice beach, bad food <BR> <BR>No more weddings or reunions in Vegas please!! <BR> <BR>Once was enough for Badlands/ Black Hills <BR>Wisconsin Dells,.(what a waste!) <BR>...the backroads we took to get there were the most memorable!! A trampoline in the middle of an apple orchard on a starlit night and a wiffle ball field!! <BR> <BR>Chicago.......not my kind of place <BR> <BR> <BR>Not enough places visited "YET" to yea or nay but will someday see..... <BR> <BR>Alaska....cruise probably <BR>Ireland <BR>Egypt <BR>Australia <BR>Greek Islands <BR>Spain <BR>Italy <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR>

Once is enough: <BR>1) New Orleans <BR>2) L.A. <BR>3) State of New Jersey (except Wildwood) <BR>4) Poconos <BR>Would return any time: <BR>1)US Virgin Islands (most of the Caribbean) <BR>2) Cancun <BR>3) Seattle <BR>4) Vancouver B. C. <BR>5) Southwest US <BR>6) Panhandle of Florida <BR>7) Key West
