I just happened to run across a list of the top 10 tourist spots in the USA, and wanted to share.
1. Times Square, New York City
2. The Las Vegas Strip, Nev.
3. National Mall and Memorial Parks, Washington, D.C.
4. Faneuil Hall Marketplace, Boston
5. Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
6. Disneyland Park, Anaheim, Calif.
7. Fisherman’s Wharf/Golden Gate National Recreation Area, San Francisco
8. Niagara Falls, N.Y.
9. Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tenn./N.C.
10. Navy Pier, Chicago
Looking at that, it occurred to me that I have been to all these places, except for #9 above. Guess what is on my list of destinations for RV'ing?
And of the 9 places that I have been to, I have visited more than once, except for #8. Disneyland & Disneyworld, we had to make multiple trips for our children, but I doubt if we will ever return. Oops, too early to discount the possibility of future grandchildren. So, I am obviously your typical tourist.
Do you agree with this list? Note that I am surprised that Smoky Mountains was on the list but not the Grand Canyon.
The two following links are my references.
