OK, just to save some others from making the same mistakes I have made over the years, here goes;
1] Hawaii
all apologies to DiverTwo of course, but I don't understand a place loaded with 60-80 year old couples with white socks and sandles arguing about foolish crap; honeymooners, japanese with camera's, way over-priced for everything, beaches way over-crowded, moronic college kids flooding the bars and discos, cops everwhere, shit-don't-stink hookers and much worse.
will NEVER go back for any reason
2] Florida
see number 1
3] Las Vegas
OK, for your foreigners maybe one time to see the lights and the hotels, etc..... it's cool one time I guess. But PLEASE don't think this is the real America, I assure you it's NOT! For americans who have been there more than once; what the hell were you thinking about the 2nd time??
4] L.A.
see number 3
5] Cruises
Who ever invented this idea? "Hey, lets get 3000 people in a tightly-confined place, throw in screaming kids, overweight and goofy people from new jersey and long island, give 'em only 3 pools to swim in, land in exotic ports of call but make 'em get back on the ship within 6 hours so they can't enjoy it on land ..... give 'em small beds, showers and rooms all designed for 12-year olds, sit 'em at tables with other goofy fat people from weird places so they can get to know each other and spread that weirdness, and oh- by- the- way lets charge them 5K per couple or more!"
Doctor Mengele was surely behind this whole thing, which only the newly wed and the nearly dead can enjoy; same as Hawaii, never ever again.
6] Any Hard Rock Cafe, anywhere in the world
7] Stogie's old apartment near the docks
8] Bali
OK, it's beautiful and all that, and the costumes look neat and the Hindu religion is great, blah blah blah..... but seriously, unless you live in Australia what's the point? Phuket is 100 times better and cheaper, has better nightlife and more ladyboys if that's what you want. Stick with Thailand and you will be happy; going here to tell your family and friends "I've been to Bali" will just be a let-down.
9] Jakarta
need I explain?
10] Philippines
I love Salma, I really do.....she is a great kid and others in her country I have met also, such friendly and nice people. but same as Bali, why go here when you have Thailand? White beaches? Check, Thailand has that; Ladyboys? Check, eerrrr I think Thailand has a few there also. Bang for the buck? It's more expensive here believe it or not! Diving?? Thai's have that also. Etc, etc, etc.....a speaker for the P.I. dept of Tourism I would not make.
11; Japan
Over-priced....rude people walking fast and with their heads down..... small portions at dinner.... traffic..... only spent 5 days there but was not impressed at all, reminded me of New York but with Japanese people. will also never go back there either; for what?
* The food IS great here however.
12] Pattaya "Beach"
too easy to pick on, will leave it alone and let you all discover the horror for yourselves
13] Jamaica
Over-priced.....can't leave the resort without being constantly bothered by; thieves, scam artists, ugly hookers, thieves posing as ugly hookers, drug dealers {Ok, so they DO have 'some' good things there!} taxi drivers beeping and almost running you off the road. No stores stay open past 7pm; if you want water or a soda, tough luck. Beaches are nice but big deal, there are nice beaches everywhere. Stay clear, trust me.
14] Vermont
Any other idea's to help save your fellow travellers from discovering hence ruining their vacations?
List 'em here!
