I love hearing about, thinking about and planning trips. Here's a spot for people to share some of their favorite locations, hints, things to avoid etc. Post your questions for those that have been, and your guidance for those that are going.
I'll get the ball rolling here. My wife and I just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary. We are wanting to start planning a big trip for our 10th. We want to do Hawaii possibly. If we do Hawaii for those that have been do you recommend doing an Island Hopping cruise or just booking hotels? Pros and cons of each?
Have you been to Kauai? I'm curious how it compares to that one. I've heard Kauai is also great for just lush and quiet.if you guys like the quiet vibe the big Island has it in spades, love it there
You guys are making me want to get there now. All I know is that when we go we are trying to plan 10 days!
10 days! You go for 10 days and you are never coming back.
Just a bit tongue in cheek, but if you're anywhere close to this restaurant there is nothing else like it. Waterfall in side with cliff divers, a cave you walk through. Something I remember pretty well from when I was a kid. http://www.casabonitadenver.com/Anybody have any suggestions on must see places in the Denver area? My wife and I are going there in 2 weeks.
Hey guys, going to be in D.C. for a couple of days next month. Any suggestions for a neat dinner place or shaving supplies? We’ll be about a 15 min walk NE from the White House.
Thanks! I’ll look it upI've been to DC about five times in the last three years. Most of the restaurants I ended up going to were pretty good but nothing special. Except for Lapis Afghan Bistro.

This place is amazing! It has even been awarded a Bib Gormund! A Bib Gormund is an a award by the same people that hand out Michelin Stars. The Bib Gormund is an award for restaurants that hand out "exceptionally good food at moderate prices." This place is really good. And from a guy who ate at the houses of regular people while I was in Afghanistan (I had an interesting job over there), this place is either spot on, or has a modern take on a very ancient food style! I seriously recommend Lapis...make reservations though...they fill up.
As far as Shaving supplies...I am sure there are places, but the only place I found was Grooming Lounge. But they have a lot of their own products and a few other things...but don't go there looking for artisan soaps or for that matter much of anything else.
Hope this helps!
