then don't go to w. va. jkath. if you're anything like me you go down for 3 days and talk like them for 2 weeks
 
aaaaaaaaaaaaah. now I know.
I have a friend (my age) who moved here at 18 from England - I could listen to her accent all day long. However, when she goes home to her mum's they all call her a yank.

Okay, back to topic - (sorry Sushi!)
I grew up at the beach, so if I had to move, I'd choose somewhere near a lake.
 
Oh, dear; so many cities, so little time. I actually DID live in Paris once-upon-a-time .... but I was only a few years old. I once priced a flat in Ljubljana, but couldn't get hubby to go for it. I love living in apartments in big OLD buildings in big cities, preferably European, but cannot convince my husband to do it. He says once the dogs die, maybe. I know the dogs are an excuse, because dogs hang out under cafe tables in most European cities. I love most old cities, and like the neighborhood experience you get from living downtown in them.
 
In my fantasy world... I'd love to spend 6 months in all of the above mentioned cities.
Just to see which is the most comfortable for Paul and I. And then make my choice.

But, since we still haven't won the Washington State lottery.... I'd have to pick either Issaquah ( home sweet home) or Portland Oregon Or Carson City NV. All great places. In Europe... Amsterdam is pretty cool, I loved Paris but, don't think I could live there, The Greek island of Naxos is GREAT. I could spend a year or two living there.
 
What??? No "Las Vegas" on the list.

What kind of poll IS this?!?
"Home Sweet Home"

I vote Sydney because it is beautiful but i am biased. Darwin was great to live in if you can handle nearly 100% humidity in the wet season.

I prefer the Central Coast or Newcastle, myself. Close enough to enjoy Sydney but far enough away to be a little less crowded.
 
Being from Massachusetts, I am accused of being parochial. I guess I have to go with the stereotype and say I am happy with Boston.

If I had to choose a second city, it would be San Francisco. (Probably because it is similar to Boston in so many ways.)
 
Z, Sushi didn't put Vegas 'cause you have all the cities/countries in one:
New York, New York
Paris
Egypt (Luxor)
Olde England (Excalibur)
Monte Carlo
The tropical islands (Mirage)
and of course "laid back land" in Margaritaville.

Actually Mandalay Bay is more tropical than the Mirage. Mandalay has the best pool in Vegas, hands down. The Four Seasons in Las Vegas is right next door to it.

It's an older hotel/casino downtown.

The California is a dive, along with the Stardust and Freemont. People from Hawaii stay there in droves and the restaurants at the hotels all serve local Hawaii style foods now. The payout is a lot less than the Strip and the facilities are pretty poor. If you're from Hawaii and you go up there, chances are you'll see several people that you know. That's cool for some people I guess, but I'll take the Strip anytime.

Yeah - - me too!

But - - sometimes I'll go downtown for the entertainment. They often have some pretty good acts playing on the outdoor stages on Freemont Street. It's also an interesting place to people watch.
 
"sous w.va. IS a beautiful state but i couldn't live there.
i don't like being "in the boonies" much more than a week lol"

I prefer to be where there are more trees than people, and just look at me...living in Chicago:wacko:
