Travel - yes you!

[raoin]

alright so, i posted this a while ago.
i never had any responses.

i'm guessing you were all really busy or that you are all home-bodies who would never travel.

so i'm trying again.
and let me clarify.
this wasnt a meme so much as it was a desire for collective knowledge.

the idea was to come up with the few things you absolutely would eat/see/do while traveling to a foreign city.
it was assumed that these were the things you would absolutely do, b/c you had only 2 or 3 days in the city.
you werent required to have actually been there and done/eaten those things.

also, its perfectly ok for your suggestion to be:
"ok, i dont really care about *City X* but little town or city Y is nearby, i'd go there and do A,B&C!"
