Vacation Ideas?
 
So, I'm attempting to plan my next vacation...
So far, I've decided that March '09, I'll be visiting the Great Smoky Mtns. I'm renting a cabin in TN. Secluded, romantic. blah blah blah!

I want to take a beach trip during the summer, or early fall. I'm debating where I'd like to go. I've considered Myrtle Beach, SC. I'm an SC native, so it's a 2.5 hr drive- 196 miles. I've also considered Daytona Beach, FL. I've been there once, I liked it. about 5.5- 6 hour drive-422 miles. I've also been looking at Panama City Beach, FL. That's 508 miles... prolly 6.5- 7 hours. Anyone been to these places? What's your recommendation? I've been looking @ condos on VRBO. If I visit PCB, I'm probably gonna stay here.

Naw, I'm ------ witcha.. I can't afford that. and there's only 4 of us goin!

feedback and more great vacation ideas are greatly appreciated!

i rented a cabin in the Smokies about this time last year. Had a pimp ass cabin and it was awesome. I would do it again. They've got indoor skydiving there. It doesnt last long enough but I suggest it anyways.

Next month, me and the wifey are going here: http://www.valentinimperialmayaresort.com/

The smokies are sweet. Stop by and have a drink with me and JD when you come up.

IMO:
Myrle beach sucks, not as good as it used to be.
Daytona sucks to live there, but good for vacation, dont go on bike week.

For beaches:
Google Oak Island, NC cheap+fun w/scenery


I would personally save my money and go back to Nassau. The bahamas ------- own. :y

id say get out of the country, if youre willing to pay for gas on a 5-6 hour trip for both ways might as well fly somewhere. me and my girlfriend went to puerto rico in march when it was kinda outa season and we paid 500 for 5 days with airfare and hotel. it was ------ tight. hit up san juan man

You're right.. Myrtle Beach is nothing close to what it used to be. I have been disapointed the last few years because you run out of things to do a couple adys after u get there...

Daytona is OK for vacation. I agree. I couldn't live there... Too many tourists.. lol

I'm thinking of sending Mom/ Dad on a cruise to Nassau In Oct '09. Mom's big 5-0!

Cancun is awesome, and actually really cheap if you do it right.

I was there didnt seem too bad, maybe it was because I was drunk the entire week???

They did have some kick ass street racing though. Cops shut down a section of the street and ppl just crowd around and watch the skylines,evos, supras kick each others asses. Pretty cool stuff.

Go dive on conberry reef, right outside the port.

It's practically all dead now. Not to mention how many HUNDREDS of gallons of diesel I witnessed spill into the water just in the short hour or so we were at the fuel station.
