OK Situated Giblets, we have some things in common. First of all, I love Cleveland b/c that is where I am from. Secondly, I choose Chicago as my first pick too.
My sister lives in the city (Old Town) and I love taking a short walk to Lincoln Park to eat at Cafe Ba Ba Reeba (the best and my most favorite restaurant of all time). It is spanish tapas and is incredible. Right near there is an awesome boutique for great shoes and accessories and then I'd cap the night off at Ethels, an incredible lounge. The next night I'd catch a show at the Aragon Ballroom. I've seen The Strokes there and it is awesome. Oh, and while I'm at it...instead of staying at my sister's (which is always fun), I would stay at the W Hotel. Why not, this is fantasy, right?
This is a fun one but I have to narrow it down. I've got the standard list of favorite places like Chicago, St Louis, Atlanta, Pigeon Forge, Cincy and Indy, but I've been thinking recently about places I've not been on a regular basis or haven't been since my youth that I would want to take the kids to see.
1)Boone NC-Lexi has been to summer camp here the last 2 years and it warrants further investigation as a vacation destination. It is considered one of North America's 4 adventure destinations. http://www.visitboonenc.com/
2)Nashville-Lots to do here. I'd like to go to the Opry, the Nashville Chamber Orchestra, and the Frist Center for Visual Arts.
3) Peebles, OH-To show the kids the Great Serpant Indian Mound, one of the largest in the US.
4)Greenville, SC-I'd go through the BMW plant/museum and visit the Nippon Center to take tea in one of 2 authentic Japanese tea rooms in the US.
Hey Fred, why the tax-day graphic for the picture in your post? Is Crossroads giving away some kind of two day trip around tax time? I think that must be it. I hope I win. I would go to Gotham City. Batman lives there, you know.
