I need a Vacation... - Page 2

Tell me about the best vacation you've ever had. Should I go all-inclusive? I may get married in August and we should have four or five thousand to spend. Any suggestions?

Best vacations I have ever had were Thailand and Costa Rica.

You "may" get married? Does it depend on the parole hearing or something?

My most memorable vacation was traveling through India and Nepal many years ago, but it was a very hard trip in terms of ... well, everything. Not a place you'd go for a honeymoon, and it was very expensive.

My "best" vacation overall was probably to Egypt. That place is absolutely incredible, and it's cheaper than you would expect.

If you're going on a honeymoon-type trip, do Paris.

Yep I was there last summer-nice place. Rode motor bikes around Cozumel-went to the ruins. Beautiful beaches, women, all inclusive. Nice place for a reasonable price.

Then do it all over again, most glorious experience of my life. Stuff like this makes it hard for me to understand why I work so much. Work has ruined my life.

I must say I've been to Panama City twice....both times were awesome until I became extremely ill....I don't know what it is about that place, but both times I've been there I got terribly ill after the first few days.

The room wasnt particularly luxurious but without spending $15-20k, you're not going to get a week at a 5 star all-inclusive. I highly recommend it.

That is where we went as well. I second his recommendation...

I haven't been to the Islands yet...but we enjoyed the Mayan Riviera of Mexico. You can do that for less money.

Are you talking honeymoon or one-last-trip-while-I'm-single? My wife and I honeymooned at the Evason Resort on the Thai island of Phuket. Great service, relaxing, beautiful...you can stay all week within the resort (swimming, great food, massages, etc) or you can choose to check out the culture around the island (Pattaya, nightlife, markets, local food, etc). The Evason owns their own island and you can take a longboat to it and spend the afternoon there on the beach with drinks and such. Very relaxing and lots to do if that's what you're looking for.

p.s.- We didn't pay for it so I really don't remember how much it costs.

my god, Club La Vela. that place was frickin' huge. i spent a spring break down there and don't have too much memory of it. i know La Vela had a wet t-shirt contests everyday. not sure whether that is good or sad that the contest is all i remember. my only other memory of that trip is the elevator door opening only for me to find some chick passed out with a beer bong on top of her riding up and down the elevator. man Panama city was great.

Wasn't that island smashed up by the tsunami a few years ago?

Yes, but on the opposite side that the resort is on.

Face-licking can kill you.

**Iowanian** · 02-09-2007, 10:48 AM

If you think that a spring break spot is a honeymoon location, you're not even close to ready.

Damn you phildo....damn you for ruining my "Noxema poisoning" blast.

When I say "may" it is actually a question of the date. It will be sometime between August and October.
