    It could have been a place where you grew up or gone on vacation or even perhaps honeymooned. Thoughts?

      Actually, I guess it is where you feel comfortable and at ease-- it may have more to do with your state of mind, your memories, your feelings and who else is there. There are a lot of wonderful places, but the place inside your mind is more important than the GPS location.

        I was there during the summer a few years ago and it was hot, but pleasant. there was no air in the home I was staying in as it was very old, so very nice to have windows open and sunset in Paris during July is around 10 p.m. so the nights went into early morning easily. beautiful city and surrounding area.

    I've been to a lot of great places each with something different to offer so it's hard to say which one is best, then again, there's no place like home!

    Alta UT- if you like powder skiing, this is perhaps the best place in the world to do it! They get about 500 inches a year in dry powder snow fall!

    Yellowstone- What a place! A gigantic volcanic caldera, a scenic wilderness teeming with wildlife! It you like fly fishing for trout then you simply MUST fish the snake river!

    Rio Di Genaro, Brazil- OMG! The beaches, the people, the views, the bikinis, the people, the girls, the beaches, the bikinis, did I mention the girls?

    Grand Bahama Island~ I was just there in June and it's a paradise! The people are just so nice! The beaches fantastic, the fishing was great and then there's the casinos, the night life and the celebrities if you like rubbing elbows with the rich and famous you have to go to Atlantis!

    The best place i've ever been is Montego Bay,Jamaica. They have the best night life. Especially this club called margaritaville i went and never wanted to leave. If you like to dance there is the place to do it. You wont even think about coming off the dance floor. And when it's time to go you start getting yourself amped up for the next night.

    Maira-Ira Beach, (blue lagoon) Pagudpud. Ilocus Norte, North East Philippines. Very remote. Imagine pure white sands, torquoise and crystal clear waters filled with fish which folk populate aquariums with. Coconut palms which bow in deference to natures awsome beauty. Take a jeep, a tent, and a cooler for the food and beer. Use dried coconut husks for fuel on a bbq. Chill out. Explore. Enjoy. It's the next best thing to being stranded on a tropical island.

    But you'll have to be hardy and adventurous to get there.
