[QUOTE="Buttercup, post: 328719, member: 990"] Well, if you're interested in the south and west of the US, I'd recommend the following: *Mammoth Cave (Kentucky) *New Orleans, esp the French Quarter. Stay at a B&B in the French Quarter, take a tour of the graveyard where Marie Laveaux is buried, drink some Blackened Voodoo beer, and visit a plantation. *Grand Canyon. There isn't anything remotely like this anywhere else in the world, so you really shouldn't miss it. *Chicago Yeah, it's neither south nor west, but the art museum is one of the best in the world, the city has lots of fabulous restaurants, and it's IMHO, the most American of all our big cities. What do I mean by that? It isn't really definable, it's just something about the feel. While you're there, stop at the Museum of Science & Industry for a tour of a real WWII German U-Boat! They even have an enigma machine. It's one of the most fascinating things I've ever seen. (edited for grammar) [/QUOTE]
