Favorite Vacation Spots
- Thread starter Jackal
- Start date
My favorite spot is anywhere in the Rocky Mountains! Preferably in Colorado. I, as a matter of fact, am leaving next Friday on a 9 day tour of the West. Plan on making stops to visit some fellow Jackers and some old friends from College and some old Friends that I made while living in Colorado. So let the Vacation BEGIN!

You know, we wanted to but didnt. The 3 hour ride to Negril on that road was enough to keep us on the resort for most of the time. We went on a horseback tour but for the most part just sailed around on Hobie Cats all day.
Jamaica

Ya mon.
Ocho Rios,
Last time we stayed at Ciboney Resort (above Sandals)
Villas on the moutainside (very private) with your own pool
The people treat you like Kings & Queens.
And the Ganj is out of this world
A close second would have to be Cozumel
(island off the coast of Cancun)
Scuba is some of the best in the world, awesome coral reefs....
Ya gotta try a night dive.
With its Mayan ruins, Beaches and Lighthouses
(ya gotta try Celarin Lighthouse with its fantastic view from the top if you can handle the 127 steps!)
Its almost is my #1 spot.
Maui would be our third. Nice & Peaceful.
Scuba is great..... lots of eels, reef sharks etc..
Great golf courses too.
Oh and the Maui Wowui aint bad either.

I agree Senor Capper,Maui,for me is the best place I have stayed.Good food,good drinks,beautiful beaches,& you get a free lei.
Another favorite vacation for me is arriving in SF.Spend a few days there & then drive down the coast on rte.1 to LA.You pass Carmel,Monterrey,Santa Barbara,Hearst Castle,& a few other amazing places.It is a real great trip.You need about 10 days to 2 weeks to really enjoy it.
One of the most beautiful cities in North America,IMO,is Quebec City.Specifically old Quebec is a great place to hang out.Alot of history& great food.You can't beat it.

The greatest place i've been to is Lake Tahoe,high up in the Sierra Nevadas.Started going there in 1967 for family vacations.Have not stopped ever since.
Tahoe is an Alpine lake with some of the clearest water in the world.Golf courses tucked into the mountains.The home of the Ponderosa where they filmed Bonanza.And wonderful restraurants around the lake.
Down in the Carson Valley and back up the other side high in the mountains lies Virginia City. The main street being for the most part as it was in the 1860s.The Bucket of Blood Saloon.Mine shafts to see.Miles of mine shafts under the city from the Comstock Load.
The South shore for the most part is in California,the North shore is in Nevada.
I give it :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
I'll be going there next month and will retire there

I just got to my family's place in FLA........Got here yesterday, and will be here three weeks.
I don't care to travle much, as Wisconsin sees a nice variety of seasons, and has plenty to do.
We have some great golfing, and a Summer's worth of courses, all within a 2 hour drive from my place. Each year, I take a nice lazy rafting ride down the Wolf River, too. We let it stretch out for close to eight hours, but it is the most relaxing thing you could ever picture, and it only costs $25 per person.
Of course, Las Vegas is one of my favorite places to go!

yyz - See your reply and location of Fondy (I played softball against Dillingers for last 10 years)... Golfing is nice here, this is true. Just played Whistling Straights last Friday. BUT, vacation come February and March is a must...
Where are you at in Florida? I spend my time down there in the Naples area.

Cruising !!!
I've been on 5 and can't wait to go again.
Not in any order:
1. Bermuda- very clean and the best beaches and rock formations.
2. Cozumel- Great place to party:drinky:
3. Grand Cayman- What and experience to swim w/the sting rays
Non cruising.
1. Aruba- It's Las Vegas w/ beaches. Clean and friendly people. I had the best steak I've eaten there(El-Gaucho's).
2. Mount Washington Hotel in N.H.- It looks like the Whitehouse. I took my wife there for V- day 2 yrs ago and she still talks about it
JMO- Jamaica sucked- I hated it, mainly because of the begging
