Poll: A question for Un-Americans.

[averydeeadaccount]

i wouldn't like to visit any of them *looks smug*
so many more interesting places in the world then america, but if i had to i'd go with yellowstone

 

[snave]

No Detroit on the list? Urban decay at its finest?

Failing that, I had to go for San Francisco. Gotta go see for myself the city that inspired that most inspiring of inspirational arthouse films: The Room.

 

[Ross Tuddin]

I have studied Geology so The grand Canyon, Yellowstone are rather interesting to me and also New Orleans atleast pre Cyclone Katrina i would have liked to visit. and Anaheim or Hawaii.

 

[Yopaz]

Well, I can't pick any of the above. I would go to Washington DC, so the closes is New York I think. If I am going to go to USA it will be to visit my uncle who lives there, though he does have an apartment in New York too.

 

[9thRequiem]

Well, I've visited NY, DC, Baltimore, Orlando and Miami, but still haven't been to the one I'd most like to - Boston.

 

[Dags90]

New York City, very closely followed by Yellowstone. No Grand Canyon on that list though, oversight or not enough options? The Grand Canyon would be my third choice, the wilds of inner Detroit would be very interesting to see too.

I'm from Australia if that makes any difference.

Eight is the maximum number of poll options. I decided not to add an "other" category because they tend to suck up votes like a Dyson.

In my experiences there, Yellowstone seems to be reasonably popular with Australians. The Grand Canyon is pretty cool and stuff, too.

Los Angeles, mostly because I have a friend I play on Xbox live who lives over there, he's in producing for a studio, so there's all kinds of cool stuff he could show me.

i'd only visit the outskirts or small towns. things get nasty further inside of america.

For the most part, the small towns are on the inside, the big cities are on the outside. That's why they're big; centers of trade and all that.

Besides, it's the small, interior towns that tend to be home to many of the crazy We Don't Like Your Kind Round Here types. Not that you're likely to meet any of those anyway. The biggest dangers of coming to America, as far as I'm aware, are getting sued for some trivial thing, going to a hospital for a minor injury and ending up in debt for the rest of your life, or having the wrong name or too brown of a face and getting disappeared by the CIA.

I'd either go to the Hawaiian Islands or to Yellowstone. As for the others in the poll option, why would I go to those places? What's there?

 

[Dys]

I've done Hawaii, which was at best lackluster (as I'm Australian I suppose it was always going to be a waste of time to travel overseas for a beach type holiday), as well as california (also not very exciting imo) and Colorado.

Based on my experience, I'd probably have little interest in any of the poll options with the possible exception of yellowstone. I'd definitely be keen to go back to Colorado, the snow was incredible! There are, of course, other states with good skiing (outdoor ice rinks are also welcome) so if I was to go, it would be on of those places.

 

[Dags90]

As for the others in the poll option, why would I go to those places? What's there?

NYC - Various buildings, Broadway, Giant Christmas Tree.
LA - Hollywood, Disneyland, surfing/beaches.
Las Vegas - Gambling, strippers, etc.
Miami - Beaches, nightlife.
Orlando - Disney World, Universal Orlando.
San Francisco - Fisherman's Warf, wine, gay buttsex.

 

[Robot Number V]

As an American who's only been to two of those places (Yellowstone and Vegas, if you're keeping track at home. Also, stop keeping track at home. It's weird.) I'd have to say Hawaii. I live in the middle of the dessert, so it would be a nice change of pace.

 

[Syzygy23]

That depends.

Which State is closest to Canada?


[sub]New York, I suppose. Seems like the 'safest' choice.[/sub]

No, God no! Washington state will give you the same experience except you won't get a huge whiff of human poop every 2 blocks you walk and people will actually stop to give you the time of day. And no matter where you are, you're always a 2 hour drive plus or minus a ferry ride. Also you're less like to get mugged. Like, by a lot.

 

[EeveeElectro]

Un-Americans, lol...

Well I'd love to go to Hawaii, although there is one person I don't want to run into and considering it's such a tiny island, I probably would.
Although if I went, I'd go somewhere different just in case I did run into her and just had to rip her face off.

Where in Florida is Disneyland? Cause I wanna go there.
Also I'd like to visit New York. I doubt I'd ever be rich or lucky enough to visit America and travel though ;(

 

[Mauler]

Well I would wisit the (New)Vegas, not because of gambling(well mabey couple of times) but because of sightseeing... Newer have i've been autside my Latvia...

 

[Dags90]

Where in Florida is Disneyland? Cause I wanna go there.

NO.

BAD!

VERY BAD!

*squirts with spray bottle*

Disney World is near Orlando, Florida. Disneyland is near L.A., California.

*flails* Oh, well I didn't know! All I hear over here is 'Disneyland Florida or Disneyland Paris.'
I didn't even know until recently they had some sort of Disneyland in Tokyo too!
What's the difference between World and Land?

Disney World has four separate parks in it, including Epcot where you can be treated to a pastiche of your home country along with others. Also, Disney World is a lot bigger. That's what makes it Disney World and not Disneyland.

 

[Nantucket_v1legacy]

Seeing as Dallas, Texas is not there I would have to go with Las Vegas.
Lights, booze and gambling? Hell yes.

But then - in Dallas you can have fried chicken and doughnuts for breakfast...

 

[Jonluw]

Hawaii.
I love beaches and chilling out.
