Have to say Florida, so much to do over there, even if it's all a great distance apart!
And Niagra Falls was superb too.

Vancouver is a class place for a holiday. Designer clothes are well cheap out there to I had to buy another suitcase to bring the new gear home in.
As for Europe, Prague is the best place Ive been to other than the usual resort holiday. I only went for a 5 day trip but it was the best laugh ever. It must be the cheapest place for alcohol in the world and its sold everywhere possible like in clothes shops, mcdonalds and on street corner hot dog vendors.

i aint really been to that many different places. and all the places i've been i've liked for different things. florida i oved coz it wa hot and there was sooooooooooooo much to do. portugal was great coz we went back 3 years running! ad rhodes this year was brilliant - lots and lots of drinking and getting drunk and loadsa new people to meet and stuff.
next years holiday will top them all tho - i cant wait!
however - places i'd most like to visit would probably be New York, California and Japan. and I'd like to live in France for a bit if I ever improve my French!

Vancouver is fantastic - did it a few years back.
Now I've got kids gotta say Florida is the business as well - expensive to get to but amazingly cheap when you're there.

Yup, Canada tops my list of holidays by a long way.
Toronto, just up the road, is a great city. I want to go back as soon as i can.

I'd have to agree that Florida is one of the best holiday destinations in the world, i can't get enough of that place:cool: Just take my advice and don't go to California cos it is crap in comparison and everything is so far apart, besides there isn't aything that great there and san francisco is bloody freezin! Ah well at least it was an experience and i got to ride the famous trams:D

Get yourselves to Thailand, my friends! It's the ultimate holiday destination....something (and someone!) for everyone; fantastic weather, people, beaches, cuisine and nightlife. And although it costs a few extra quid to get there, the place is so f*cking cheap it's unbelievable!
The best time to go is between November and March (that's the dry season); you will need some vaccinations but no more than, say, Mexico (also good). If you can stick 90-95 degrees of heat EVEN AT NIGHT and want to broaden your outlook on life, give it a go. Do what I did - visit Bangkok for three or four nights then chill out for a week or so in a beach resort (the island of Phuket is breathtaking.)
Remember - Thailand next year! Maybe I'll see you there! ;) :wave:

Thailand's supposed to be class. My uncle was telling me the people in the hotels over there run around after all you the time you're there and'll get yer ANYTHING you ask for (yeah, even drugs & hookers)
My personal fave holiday has to be Gran Canaria though, been there loadsa times.

Weird! A mate of mine was telling me that his mate went to cancun for 2 weeks for £850 all-inc!! I'm planning something the same but me and my girlfriend are saving and then gonna go for whatever looks good last minute- its cheaper that way too and, as its just the two of us, there should be a fair few places available cheap.

Melbourne in 1994. Went over for 5 weeks to stay with family.
Went to Benidorm after World Cup in 1998, it has got to be one of the worst places around if your a Southerner, all we got from birds both weeks was abuse.
Football holidays have generally been quite good.
Best place though has got to be Edinburgh, definately the best city in Europe.

Cancun was one of my favs but the clear winner is Egypt, one week cruise down the Nile, one week in our 4 star hotel room with a view of the Nile and Valley of the Kings and Queens.

Hong Kong is great for cheap designer clothes too, as long as you go to the street markets and NOT the shops!
They're not fakes, the street vendors buy all the factory over-runs or seconds - some of which you would NEVER know were seconds!
The Maldives are well cool too, but the best trips are always footy away trips!!
