Question

As Americans like to have vacations in there own country where are the most popular destinations?

Answer 1

Hawaii.

It's the American equivalent of Southend-on-Sea.

Answer 2

Americans don't realise that theirs is not in the only country in the world.  They're not the brightest or most cultured beings, are they!?

Answer 3

I onced asked an American why his countrymen dont travel the world like say us Brits do. He reckoned that because of the work ethic in the USA they dont recieve the same amount of holiday time as we do and therefore most Americans really couldnt take 2 or 3 weeks off to travel long distances so with the limited time they do get they choose to make the most of what is on their doorstep, and lets face it its a pretty big doorstep. From what i could tell most couldnt care less where they went as long as they were with their family and had time to let off steam.

Answer 8

Everyone has a preference of their own.  There are amusement parks like Disneyland and Disney World.  There are places for music like Grand Ole Opry or Branson, Missouri.  There are music festivals like the Blind Lemon Music Festival in Wortham, TX.  There are huge national parks and forests, like Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Yellowstone; Stone Mountain, where you can camp or rv, or just visit for a day trip.  There are Civil War battlefields.  There are beaches like Miami and South Padre Island.  There is surfing in California.  There is skiing and snowboarding in Colorado, Vermont, New York, etc.  I can't tell you what are the most popular.  Like I said, it all depends upon what YOU want to see.  But, rest assured, whatever it is you want to see or do....it is here.

Edit:  Aside to bronnimo:  Actually, I have been all over the world, and I have probably seen and done more than you, three times over.  The fact is, I just prefer my homeland.  I assume you prefer yours?
