Official DU Favorite Vacation Destination Thread Poll :)

[Catchawave]

Poll question: Official DU Favorite Vacation Destination Thread Poll :)

Just wondering how *we* like to spend our DU Vacays. As for me, I LOVE NYC, and my hubby LOVES Fishing trips to Alaska. How different are we (psst..I'm an animal rights activist too..oy..?) But here's my little poll, hope you play :hi:

On Edit: Please share, if you'd like, details too !

[xmas74]

1. My daughter and I camp every year.

It's cheap and there are many places close by. If I can get a few days off in a row we just pack up and go.

[SeattleGirl]

2. Vegas, baby!!!!

[Catchawave]

16. Vegas is the Best Destination for Internet Meet-ups too....

As I keep hinting on DU.....for a National Meet-up :)

I have never had a bad time in Vegas, ever.

[Hissyspit]

40. That's where Kos had theirs. Don't know why we don't have one...

I should have mentioned it to Skinner when I met him.

[supernova]

3. Gotta be Beachy...

I love the waves, the sand, the sun, the bathing suits..... Ah! Pure Bliss! B-)

If money is no object, then I choose anywhere in Europe. Preferably spring or fall. History and art, and great food and people saying such interesting things to you. Or at least it sounds so. :D

[bleedingheart]

4. I love it relaxing and typically beachy...but I want to go to Europe

and my hubby and I are filling out our passport info right now...we are hoping to travel there sometime in the next year or two with the kids...

[Catchawave]

6. Thanks for the reminder!

Since I discovered Travel Zoo, found out I can travel to Europe cheaper than going to NYC. My passport expired !

[XemaSab]

5. Camping/Birding Road Trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Canada, Texas, Maine, Arizona, Southern California.... it's ALL GOOD!!!!! :D

[Catchawave]

8. Purple Martins?

Huge meet-up every year in Finger, Tennessee....

That's my road trip destination this summer :hi:

[xmas74]

10. Another thing in common!

Camping, that is. My daughter and I go because it's cheap and a nice vacation.

[yurbud]

7. funnier idea: what do you actually end up doing on vacation?

stay at home and watch TV

visit relatives

take care of kids since they have summer off...

Wally world

[Catchawave]

9. I did include *home* as a destination......

did'ya see that? :hi:

And yes, DU 24/7 is my favorite home destination site these days ! Well, downtime before 2006 kicks my butt this spring.

[yurbud]

12. that should be an option too: DU until you get open butt sores and

bloody stubs for fingers.

[Catchawave]

19. 'tru dat....I'm a DU Phool.....

Just got back from 3 weeks in South Beach, FL, and it felt like DU Rehab :) I truly missed youse'guys :grouphug:

[Catchawave]

21. Which reminds me.....

My *Home* destination poll thingy line,was not based on vacaying at Betty Ford. But should be included on the "theme" destination line?

Whoa, that made sense....heh.

[Catchawave]

23. LOL....yep....

I'll remember that for my next DU Poll....I think :)

[Beaverhausen]

18. sex

well...you asked.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

11. I love it all...

Ok, I'm not into skiing, thought I'd like to try cross-country. Give me the White Mountains. Give me theme parks. Give me Rehoboth Beach or its wilder neighbor, Assateague Island. I'd love to visit other countries, and I think I'd really enjoy a trip to Pittsburgh.

And if there's a place most people have never heard of, there's a good chance I'd like to see that, too...just because.

[Catchawave]

17. Me too....I have a great time....

...wherever I go :hi: So I hope nobody puts me in charge of a National DU Meetup, my brain would explode....heh.

[LeftyMom]

13. No snow but other than that I'll try nearly anything.

I like going camping, I like visiting people, I once took a week off just to hang out at home and decompress (I had a really stressful job then.) Vacation is good, no matter what I do, because at least I'm not working.

[Beaverhausen]

14. Mountains and TREES

[DrDan]

15. northern Italy

how can you go wrong

food, wine, scenery, great people, . . .

[Catchawave]

25. Love Northern Italy.....

..thanks for sharing :hi:

[Bzzzz]

20. Moab, Utah...

on my Trek 6700 WSD...

[Fox Mulder]

22. Any of the above...

depends what I want during the time I want to go on vacation. :)

All of those ideas seem ideal to me. :)

[KitchenWitch]

28. Me too

My tastes in vacation range from catching baseball games at various ballparks, to going to airshows, to the whole themepark thing, to roadtripping to see the countryside.

Only thing I have not done yet, that I would like to, is go on a Cruise.

[Calliope]

24. Well, I love NY as a destination, but I too have discovered

travelzoo - went to Prague last May and London at Christmas,so my goal is to have my passport filled up before it expires.

[Catchawave]

41. Hi Calliope.....

Travelzoo is why I'm renewing my passport.

[Catchawave]

26. Sorry, I have to kick this...

..the DU Lounge..suc..ks..nevermind @!!!

[Missy Vixen]

27. Cannon Beach, OR -- can't get enough n/t

[momophile]

29. give me a warm beach in the Pacific...

Hawai'i or Samoa or Tonga or whatever...

Then I'd dry off and go to Europe...

[GrumpyGreg]

30. Europe----cities only ! I hate the country and the beach,love the

history in those old cities.

[mykpart]

31. Cruise ships??!! Are you nuts??

Didn't you watch 20/20 tonight? Especially not Carnival Cruise Lines! I already didn't care much for Carnival because of Kathy Lee Gifford. Wonder is she will go on air crying over the people who have been lost at sea.

[Omphaloskepsis]

32. Reykjavík for a new years..

Prague is always to much fun..

[LSK]

33. ANYTHING!!!

As long as Im not at work!

[TimeChaser]

34. Chincoteague Island

was one of my favorite vacations I've gone on.

[Scooter24]

35. Monte Carlo, Monaco

or anywhere on the French Riviera.

[MrSlayer]

36. Walt Disney World.

Universal Studios is pretty cool too.

[Catchawave]

44. Disney is military friendly too !

Discounts:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

37. Almost any cruise ship.

[khashka]

38. I've been most places

but I really really really want to go to Jamaica. Or Trinadad. Australia. The West African coast.


I want to go back to Hong Kong and see what changes have been wrought since the changeover. I can't believe a change of government could change those people.

Khash.

[Hissyspit]

39. New York City.

Always something to do.

[skygazer]

42. Away from the things of man

I always loved that phrase from Joe Versus the Volcano.

We love to camp but not in regular campgrounds. Remote wilderness camping with no people, bathrooms, showers, phones, roads or anything else to remind us of civilisation. We're going over President's Day and I can't wait! :bounce: I haven't been for a few years. :bounce:

[WolverineDG]

43. I voted "Other"

because it's a 3-way tie for favorite vacation between the beach, Europe, & cruising. :) With any luck, I can someday do all three at the same time!! :)
