So whats your favorite vacation you have ever had? or you favorited destination?

Mine is Niagara Falls, Canada. I just love this place. I have been there twice and each time I hate haveing to leave. It is so beautiful there and there is a bustling tourist area with tons to do but not that far outside of the falls is a nice town with lots of residents so its easy to escape the tourist trap part of it. The nautral beuaty of the falls and the gorge is just incredible. There is also lots of stuff to do to get you right up close like a boat that takes you right up next to the falls and another boat ride that brings you up to the worlds only permanent whrilpool through some insane rapids.
The campground I stay at there is the KOA and it is wonderfully maintained and has tons of activities all the time. Last summer when I was there they had three bands during the week that where all very good.
I have been a few exotic places but hands donw nothing holds a stronger spot in my heart for a vacation then the falls!
 
I spent 6 weeks in New Zealand with a rented 4WD touring both islands with my best friend. Lots of hiking, ocean kayaking, city exploring, glacier climbing, horseback riding, jet boating, white water rafting, whale/wildlife watching, wine tasting, checking out LOTR film sites, and I'm sure I've left something out. I needed a vacation when I got home, LOL. With the favorable exchange rate and going during the off-season of June/July (I'm from snow country NY, so was totally undaunted by their version of winter in general), it was a steal of a trip! I'd go back in a heartbeat and cannot say enough good things about the country, its people, or the food (especially the seafood)!
 
Walt Disney World...in FLORIDA :fairy:

I've been there 25 times since I was a baby and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon LOL....Needless to say, I'm a Disney Nut and so is our whole family!
 
germany, awsome country, mostly nice people, very clean.
 
Egypt for historical tourism, Turkey for countryside, and Rocky Mountain National park for vista views. South Utah is also pretty darned impressive.
 
San Sebastian in Spain. The hotel lounge had an entire wall of glass, so you could get the whole effect of being on the edge of this wide expanse of water. There was also an amusement park right next to the hotel, so good for kids. Good food, good shopping, and for the guys who are interested, some women do sunbathe topless there.
