what's the nicest place you have visited?

[billy]

does that include fishing?
the hotel spoils it

[billy]

id love to fish it.
in the uk we have to have a rod license (1 per rod your using, two rods out two rod license)
and you need a fishing permist for wherever you fish. though some places are free. (public waters etc. most rivers have fishing rights owned by someone or other so you pay for them)

anyway. it looks great apart from the hotel

I haven't travelled to the extent that some of you here have ... I tend to be a home-body.
When I was 18 I made a trip to Negril Beach, Jamaica. It was a little piece of heaven-on-earth.
I can only imagine what changes have come about in 33 years.
Negril Beach was pretty laid back with not many fancy hotels. During the time I was there many jamaicans opened up their homes to visitors for added income. I stayed with an older couple raising one of their grandchildren. They were totally cool folks and welcomed me in as a family member.
I was more interested in hanging with day to day folks, experiencing daily life in paradice then spending time at a fancy resort.

sounds nice kath.
my daughter went to Jamaica for their honeymoon
now days tourists are told the danger of carrying too much cash
when in Jamaica.

it's a place i've never visited, i have to say the story behind it's construction was awesome.

[srijantje]

overrated if you ask me,now a truly awesome building in my opinion is the blue mosque in Istanbul

[billy]

i must have seen it on the tv but i'd be lying if i said i know it.

i do think the taj is a fabulous building but more so the story behind it.

Sounds great lizzy . Sometimes its the atmosphere of the place that makes it special, aside from its natural beauty.

Although it isn't my favourite or the nicest, I must admit Paris has a certain magic to it.

Maybe I've just bought into the commercial side of it, but there's so much happening in that city.

[billy]

it's true dan. the sunday market they have i paris is fantastic It's like a giant flea market where everyone bring out all their old stuff to sell.

[mrmod]

I went there. And it's not just their old stuff - you see the young ones also buying clothes and what not. True hustle and bustle in that city.

[billy]

it would be even better if the café's didn't charge so much ;(

[mrmod]

True. It's an expensive city.

I found myself starving and just bumped into a McDonalds. Even that was expensive.

one of the nicest places i visited was perth in scotland
i used to collect paperweights and some good one could be had down that way from car boot sales and other places etc.
