I know we're scattered all over the globe and I thought it'd be cool to hear (and maybe see) some of the spots folks have been on vacation (or "holiday" as you Brits might put it).

My favorite vacation spot is the Florida Keys. I've enjoyed diving wrecks and reefs in the Middle Keys and I've enjoyed the night life of Key West as well. The people are generally very friendly and hospitable and will go out of the way to help a non-Conch (Key West native).

Who else has a favorite?

Florida Keys is really nice. I love it there. This may be a little cliche, but I love Hawaii. I usually go to Kauai which isn't as crowded or touristy which is nice

i spent x-mas 2006 in the keys, as borat would say, "It's very nice!"

My favorite spot I have gone on holiday would w/o a doubt orsecond thought be IBIZA, went there2 summers ago for 10 days and wish I would have never come back.

I don't know if I have a favourite spot. I'm actually going to Montreal this weekend. I'll let you guys know how that is. Apparently it's party central in Quebec. lol

I've also been out West a couple times to visit my sister. It's really nice out there. My sister is lucky. No matter where you look there are tall mountains. Plus there's a lot of partying over there as well. lol

I've never really vacationed outside of Canada. That's not to say I haven't been outside of Canada. I've been to Michigan a couple times, but just for car shows and concerts.

Shit man, I don't hit those tropical spots up...When I vacation, I like to...Well...

I really, really like New Orleans...I thought Cali was nice too, but expensive...I hope this year to go and see x3n in Puerto Rico, and someday Brazil and some cool spots in Europe...

But up to this point I have enjoyed lots of college towns..When I was in school I was somewhere every weekend it looked like and had fun pretty much everywhere that I went....

Sweet Christ... The next time I go on vacation I'm totally hitting Montreal up again. That place is so fun, and the women are so fucking fine! It's insane. This girl that was serving us as Sir Winston Churchill (Yes, that's actually the name of a bar lol) was fucking GORGEOUS!!! One look at her, and I thought I was going to die. And she had the sweetest French accent. Ugh... I managed to get a picture with her, and I'm hoping to Christ it turned out because I don't think the flash went off. We ended up leaving her like a $17 tip when we left. lol Yeah, Reuben wasn't exactly thinking with the proper head. lol
