Your favorite places to visit in North America (incl. Mexico)?

[CFH]

I'm thinking of taking a trip, somewhere in North America, and I'm trying to decide where. Problem is, I'm fucking terrified of flying, so I'll be taking trains/buses if at all possible. I'm thinking of heading down to Mexico, but that would mean flying, so I've decided to consider places in the U.S. and Canada as well. For some reason, I'm thinking San Fransisco would be a cool place to visit. I live on the west coast, so it wouldn't be too far away or too expensive to get to either.

Any suggestions?

Travel the coast bro, hit up Lincoln City, OR and Trinidad, CA then end up in San Fran.

Have you been to Las Vegas yet?

You can plan a trip there, when there is a fight going on, this way you can also go to your first live fight.

Do you have a car?

Boston, NYC, Dallas, Miami...I love all of North Carolina the mountains, the beach, the Piedmont (where I live).

I'd love to get out to the east some day. If I make it to NC, you can have the honor of buying me cheap American beer while we argue about politics and hockey.

Myself, I like driving places, on my own schedule. If I had the dough, my first choice would be a driving tour. I'd be picking my own routes, stops, and timetable. I wouldn't even have to go far. BC is a beautiful place, and I think you said you hadn't seen a lot of it. Or maybe I'd rent a wilderness cabin at a fishing resort, or something like that. You like fishing?

Of course, driving your own car will probably cost you a a fair bit more than a train or bus ride.

I've been thinking about doing the coast. The Ore. coast in particular. Where are Lincoln and Trinidad, and what are they like?

Don't think that would appeal to my girlfriend. To be honest, aside from big fights, Vegas holds very little allure for me.

Do you have a car?

I have a shitty '99 Pontiac. So no. But I could rent one.

There you go you can hit up Seattle and Portland on the way if you want.

Lincoln City is a little touristy, but there are some cool restaurants and hotels. The area is absolutely beautiful though lots of cheap eats.
Last time I stayed there I stayed at Lincoln City hotel - Looking Glass Inn Lincoln City Oregon hotel,motel Pretty amazing views and reasonably priced.

Trinidad is a sleepy art community, at least it used to be, haven't been there in ages.

I'ld love to visit Seattle, USA. And one day I will.

I'm doing Route 66 in the summer. Chicago to Los Angeles. Gonna be fucking sweet. Hopefully I'll hook with Amat and VD.

I already been to NY and FL.

That would be a sweet trip. I love Seattle, the Queen Anne area is arguably my favorite place to visit. As I've mentioned before, I didn't find Portland overly impressive, but I'm willing to give it another shot. The Crystal Ballroom was a great place to see a show. I saw Social Distortion there.

People in San Francisco complain when they have earthquakes, but it's their fault.

I've been everywhere east of the Mississippi but really haven't been anywhere in the West for some odd reason. Was supposed to go to Vegas a couple times, San Fransisco and for whatever reason everything fell through. Now that I think about it I've never been west of Texas Bizarre now that I think about it but its just never worked out.

I'd like to go up to Montana, through to Washington (maybe even B.C.), down through Oregon and California to San Diego.

Don't have much interest in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, am sure its nice but not at the top of my list.

I'm gonna take a road trip sometime in the near future. Not the too near future. Road trip seems to be winning out at the moment over hiking the Appalachian Trail.

Well only been to the States twice, and both times to the same place, LAS VEGAS BABY, would love to go back as soon as the funds allow. Dunno if this counts but been to Dominican Republic also and that was a mighty fine island
