Poll of the Day: Which vacation would be the most appealing to you?

3rd because beaches are best for me

None of the above?

None of the options appeal to you more than the others?

We're big city sightseers with the wife, so this is an easy choice. Laying on a beach would drive us bonkers.

Paris and Disney world are the top two for me. But I honestly think I would enjoy Disney world more.

I love to go hiking/backpacking but sightseeing in Paris sounds great.

Hiking/Backpacking is fun, but a close second. I would easily choose chilin on the beach any day. Doesnt really even need to be Aruba. 

I'm not a big destination vacation guy. I'd rather spend a week writing, working on the house, or learning to program something. That said, I am a big fan of conferences. Whether they be writing cons, dance seminars, or martial arts intensives, I'd rather spend a week learning something and meeting people than visiting some foreign country where I know no one. WorldCon, Lindyfest, and the Aikido Summer Clinic up in Oklahoma City were some of the best times I've ever had. Didn't see a single landmark at any of them, but met some of the coolest (and weirdest) people in my lifetime.

 

Of the four, I picked Swiss Alps because it'd have the best views and require the most from me. I also recommend Big Bend or Big Bend Ranch State Park for anyone who really wants to get away. You can literally fire a gun (albeit illegally) and not have another soul hear it. Not that I know anyone who has done such a thing.

If I wanted to be gouged for everything I buy, I'd play World of Warcraft.

Hiking in the Alps, its what our family always has done.

 

pffft Paris, been there once, it was raining the entire time.

 

while snoozing on the beach sounds the best out of all 4, 2 issues: to hot and salt water

 

lol amusement parcs

Where's "Stay at Home"?

Where's "Stay at Home"?

The question does not ask "What would you want to do on vacation?". It asks "which of the available options would appeal to you most?"

Sleep could be an option. Just saying.

I don't hike, quit doing that after I left the Infantry.

 

I have already been to Germany, not going on another 8 hour flight....ever.

 

Too hot to lay around on a beach.

 

Even when I had kids at home, neither of them was interested in Dinsey World or Land and I'm not either.

 

Sorry, still none of the above.

Did you just put Paris in Germany?

 

didn't knew WWIII started, guess they for once ignored Belgium o/

Germany owns the EU. Didn't you follow the Greek crisis?

pfffft, they only get to keep stuff for 4y anyway

No, didn't mean to put Paris in Germany. Just not interested in another 8 hour flight. I am 6' 3" and all the seats on planes are made for some one 3' 2" so if it's a flight that is over 6 hours, I'm probably not going.

Voted Paris for similar reasons to ccabal.

aaah that way, fair enough. and I know your pain >_>

Then you would hate the Singapore ---> LA flight I just suffered through. 19 hours of flying time with a 2 hour lay over in Tokyo, followed by a 3 hour drive to my final destination. Needless to say I'm not exactly thrilled by the idea of my return trip in December.

Disney World was kinda lame. 

 

Swiss Alps, guys. Outdoors are best doors.

Sightseeing in Paris.. noice.
