why do you always wet your panties at these two names? Do you have a complex or something?
What world do you live in where Richmond #1 and Chicago, Miami, and LA aren't on the list?

Surprised to see LA at the top of many lists. I find LA to be a difficult place to be a tourist.

Definitely an art not a science...for anyone on this planet (whether an American or Chinese tourist, I would recommend the following US cities for sighting-seeing/visiting (in no particular order)

NYC
DC
Las Vegas
Seattle
San Francisco
Charleston, SC
Chicago
Santa Fe (does this qualify as a "City"?)
Honolulu
Nashville

I had good times where I had good times. The places where you had shiddy times are not gonna be the same places I had shiddy times.

Had excellent trips to Richmond, spank you very much.

All my trips to Chicago has been clammy. I used to live in Miami, don't see see it as going on vacation, see it s going to one of my homes, and LA.... I dunno why I didn't list LA. can't remember. I had good times there.

Replace Boston with LA. Dunno why I listed it.


now bring your list so I can tell you where you should have had fun

I actually kind of agree with you. If the list were my personal favorite top 10 cities to visit, the list would look different, but I have come to the conclusion that most people like LA a lot more than me, and for most people if they had a chance to travel to different places in the US, then LA would be near the top of the list of places they would want to check out.

I also put Orlando/Disney on my list b/c many people would really like to check it out, even though for me personally it is nowhere near my top 10 of places in the US I enjoy visiting.

I can see that, but I also think that LA is so decentralized that there isnt a specific spot to go. You really have to know the area to pick what experience you want.
