NORTH CAROLINA

North Carolina.
And, then they buy a house there and live there half the year.

Also, skiing in Rockies in the winter.

Heh heh. Unless you want to see more Florida, you need to fly somewhere! Like Europe.

Antarctica.

Yep. That's it. That's the definitive list. THOSE are the places folks from Florida go on vacation.

What state is next? Kansas?

MarthaT Jun 13th, 2007 01:22 PM

Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, just to name a few places.

Well, during the years my mother lived in Florida, some of her vacations included California, New Mexico, Texas, Canada, Italy, Hawaii......

seriously, what in the world would make you think Florida residents never leave the state- or the country- for vacations???? Do you worry that residents of other states never go elsewhere?

starrsville Jun 13th, 2007 01:33 PM

I don't think people from Kentucky leave their state for vacations :-)

escargot Jun 13th, 2007 01:47 PM

gee starrs, I think even they get to sneak out once in awhile,don't you? I know up here in Massachusetts, I find a way, at least a few times a year, to escape the state.....and I haven't been reprimanded yet :).....oh, one of those vacations was to Florida and it was SO crowded b/c I think all the Florida residents were there....

starrsville Jun 13th, 2007 01:48 PM

I dunno....
Maybe Chris will give us the answer. :-?

I asked the same question, repeatedly, when I lived in San Diego in the mid '70's.
Way better here/now!

Sometimes we go to places within our state. I go to VT, DC, NYC, Europe.

diann24 Jun 13th, 2007 03:23 PM

My son lives in jacksonville he is headed for Calif. in August for a family reunion. He has also gone to Myrtle beach.

lcuy Jun 13th, 2007 03:37 PM

Same place that all the Hawaii residents go...

The Canadian Rockies, the southwest, New York City, San Francisco, Europe, Canada, Asia, South & Central America...I do not associate a beach or sunny weather with a vacation, I associate it with where I grew up.
