Top 5

London
Tokyo
NYC
Paris
Hong Kong

The list will morph over time, I've gotten to cross San Francisco, Rome, Mexico City, and Shanghai off the list. We are planning a trip for next year and we will visit NYC, London, and Paris. It may be a while before we cross Tokyo and Hong Kong off the list.

You're right - though I have been to Yorkshire - And in fact, been about 30 minutes from Bradford - I haven't actually been to Bradford. And considering that Bradford is The Curry Capitol of Britain, clearly I missed a great opportunity just down the road. DANG IT.

Have you all noticed that the people 'scoffing' at Bradford have actually never even been to the place and yet the people that have actually been there agree with me that it is a wonderful place, what does that tell us exactly? It may lose out on size when compared to London, New York or Tokyo but as mentioned it beats all 3 in a culinary sense and blows Tokyo or New York out of the water when it comes to sports, Bradford also puts Paris or Rome to shame when it comes to beauty. There is a buzz to Bradford that even London finds hard to match and there is beauty on the doorstep of Bradford too.

Well, personally, I think anyone who doesn't just love Chandler, Texas just doesn't know enough about it and for SURE hasn't been here, so how can they even presume to judge?

Haters gonna hate.
