Whats the best honeymoon spot within the continental United States, IN YOUR OPINION?|147218

Here are the areas that are a no go because we want to go somewhere different:

Tennessee
Alabama
Florida
Georgia
Mississippi
North or South Carolina
and New York

I have been doing some research online, but thought I would get some opinions from real people and maybe research some of those spots as well.
Please no overcrowded areas.

chicago you have the lake the cub or sox and lot of thing to see

Would go to Hawaii myself.

Dont go to NY...way too crowded! I think I_d like to see NC or SC myself. Lots of golfing, beaches, etc

What is the best Honeymoon Hotel to stay in Hawaii?|137480

We are getting married in April and plan on staying at Hotel Hana in Maui. Anyone been there and is it worth it? Just looking for a place without tourists yet not segregated from activities such as scuba diving, shopping, etc.. I_m open to any suggestions and $ is not an issue.

The Hana Hotel is very nice, but if you want activities, the Hana area has some, but it is limited. Here are some top rated luxury resorts I_d recommend you to consider:
- Maui Four Seasons in Wailea
- Ritz Carlton in Kapalua (this hotel is currently closed for rennovations that are scheduled to be completed in January 2008, well in time for your honeymoon. I think it is always nice staying in a new refurbished hotel.) The Kapalua area is very upscale and relatively secluded, and it is a personal favorite.
- There are 2 Four Seasons Resorts on Lanai that are top rated and have activities.

I_ll link some articles below that list the best resorts and spas in Hawaii as rated by Travel + Leisure, Conde Nast, and Mobile. You will be able to go directly to the resorts_ web sites from the article.

Thanks so much!

go where I satyed on my honeymoon...The Grand Wailea in Wailea. why are you staying in Hana? SO FAR from everything!!

Check out hawaii.com
Go into the forum and they can answer alot of questions for you.

Enjoy

Four seasons or the Grand wailea hotel

Idk...and you don_t either so y don_t you just search the internet on maybe google???!not trying 2 b mean of anything=)

Hana is not the best place to stay when in Maui. I have been to all of the Hawaiian Islands and I spent about a month in Maui on more than one occasion. Most people, when visiting Maui, stay in Lahaina and take a day trip to Hana to go to the seven sacred pools (which are seven waterfalls that you have to hike about 2.5 miles to see). Aside from the pools, Hana is pretty secluded and not _the Hawaiian_ experience most people go to Hawaii for.

Instead, try Lahaina (which is not far from Hana). It is beautiful and is set on the most amazing reefs you_ll ever see in your life. They are perfect for snorkeling at mile marker 32. Just breathtaking. It offers some of the best restaurants in the world (in my opinion), shopping, and it_s not completely jam-packed with tourists. It gives you enough of a sense of seclusion to enjoy yourself and there_s still plenty to do for entertainment -- whether it is taking a helicopter into the bowels of an active volcano, snorkeling, parasailing, swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, luaus, etc.

I prescribe that you stay at the Hyatt Regency hotel. They have the best spot on Lahaina beach and the best amenities and fun features -- not to mention the most beautiful rooms, views, and Hawaiian architecture. They have a swan cafe, which is set on a lake with swans swimming around you, an upscale 5 star restaurant, two swimming pools (with a massive waterfall in the center of the two), and inside of the waterfall is a lounge for sipping cocktails. I mean, this hotel is fully-loaded -- penguins included! Penguins for God_s sake! Penguins! It is a bit pricey to stay at the Hyatt, but it_s not ridiculous and no cost is ever too much for a honeymoon and a great Hawaiian experience.

Is Wisconsin a decent place to live if ur gay?|120262

I_ve heard many positive things about Madison. I am in Ohio now and thinking of putting in for a transfer at work to Windsor Wisconsin(near Madison). Overall I would think it can_t be any worse then Ohio or Michigan.

Madison isn_t bad but much of the rest of the state sucks. Lots of bigots there sadly and oh yes very stupid people it seems. I lived in Mich my whole life and it s better that slohio and Wisc. believe me. Try A2 or Royal Oak or Ferndale Mich. All great places!

excuse me, sharonlynnvn I live here and I think Its beautiful here and I think that anywhere else would be horrible to live. especially where u live (i_m not talking about u bs 2008

Madison is amazing - don_t even consider the Fox Valley (Green Bay/ Appleton). Very conservative!

I dont know about wisconsin but when i was in San Diego, it was awesome, there were a lot of gay people, and the people that werent seemed very accepting and it was pretty much the norm. I know this probablly doesnt help at all since it has nothing to do with WI, lol but i just thought id throw it out there.. i loved san diego :)

Just a shout out to Michigan. Ann Arbor has a very liberal progressive community that openly accepts gays and lesbians. In fact, the majority of Southeast Michigan population ranges from accepting to tolerant of gays and lesbians. Please don_t stereotype the Midwest.

Madison is probably the most open and friendly city in the state. You_ll love it.

Cool local music scene, very arty people, and the massive university sure helps too.

Here_s a link to the free weekly paper...

Madison is the most gay-friendly city in Wisconsin. I live here, and although I_m not gay, I think you_d love it. Plenty of culture, yet very safe city.

Madison is a great place to live. My brother is gay and he loves it. He says it_s very accepting and it_s a lot of fun. Best of luck.

Most of Wisconsin is extremely conservative in its attitude toward gays. The exeptions are Madison and La Crosse. Its no suprise that they are both college towns and are very accepting.

I would say that in Madison or most other larger cities not an issue - small town Wisconsin - may be a different reaction all together.

nope no queers in wisconsin move to cali anything goes there lol

I live in Wisconsin :]
Move here. It_s lovely.

San Francisco is!

Why would your sexuality have to do with where you live?

I think anywhere you go, people will judge you for your actions. Sorry, but our world is full of closed-minded people :(

Good luck

That_s just a joke!

I_m not sure what part of the country you live in, but Virginia is along the eastern seabord of the United States. It borders Maryland to the North, West Virgina to the West and North Carolina to the South. The climate is climate is fairly moderate as it is a Mid-Atlantic/Southern state, but naturally it varies across the state. Virginia beach on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean is known to be a bit of a sunshine destination, while the Appalachian Mountain range runs through the Western portion of the state. You should also note that Washington DC borders the Northernmost part of the state. Good Luck!

Virginia borders the states of Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennesse, and North Carolina as well as the District of Columbia.

Virginia actually has different climates in the mountains than in the flat part of the state.
