Vancouver, Banff, Scandinavia, Iceland, The Rockies...

And although it is no longer as exotic as it used to be, Niagara Falls can be a nice vacation spot, (hotels, sightseeing, activities/entertainment, shopping, and kosher food) particularly for someone who has never been there...
The winter is also quieter, but is beautiful nonetheless...

Oh. Actually got to trust you because you were there and i wasn't.

Btw i was reading your posts of Yellowstone and Alaska over and over... off topic but i wanted to ask you

1) which of those 2 destinations would you recommend? (I assume both are Pritsus free).

2) which go pro did you have in Alaska? I'm going November 2 to Arizona sedona and Grand Canyon i want to buy a go pro. Sorry again off topic.

1- Both are amazing and very different. I would say that if you're going with kids then do Yellowstone and the Tetons; it'll be an experience they'll never forget. As a couple I'd probably choose Alaska.

Another way to look at it is that in Wyoming there are more things to SEE, while in Alaska there's are more things to DO. Would you rather do cool things or see cool things? The answer could easily determine which place you'd enjoy more.

2- I had the Hero 3+ Black. At this point I think that the Hero 4 Silver with the built-in LCD is the obvious choice for 99% of people.

It was never exotic, the hotels aren't great, the kosher food is terrible, and it doesn't take more than a few hours to see it all and go on the boat...

I know you asked SF but it probably depends on how much time you have. For 2-4 days go with Yellowstone, if you have a week+ def go with Alaska.

Absolutely. Not to mention far more time on the ground due to the far shorter flight (especially if you could fly into JAC).

I agree, however, coupling with a Toronto trip can compensate for that/complete a trip.

Thanks. I thought the go pro is less then $200.. anyways will probably go this summer to Yellowstone and leave Alaska for a different time. Thanks again your Trip notes are fantastic. I was in Switzerland and Venice and tried to write a trip note and... I'm sure you know what i mean don't know where to start... anyways the point is i really appreciate your write ups. Thanks again you rock!

Lol thanks

Yeah, they're difficult to write, but I find its like re-living the trip, plus you have a record for yourself of what you did, when you did, etc.

You might be happy to know that that's the hardest part, once you start writing it usually flows...

Now we are getting somewhere. Your suggestions are great, ty!

Going back to warm places in the bein hazmanim time of summer...are there separate swimming beaches or times (men vs women) anywhere in the world other than in Eretz Yisroel?

Are there any other known secluded beaches where people have been other than Hawaii or the Florida stretch?

I guess the only demand is from Orthodox Jews and Muslims...

In addition to VRBO there are Frum rentals with private homes in North Miami Beach. They are about the same price & in Miami you know you are near Shuls, etc... I went through a guy Mendy Rosenberg from Ultimate management several times. He's been doing it for at least ten years (that was the first time I rented a house with a pool).
If you need his contact info PM me.

check this link out. I think it views better on an iphone than a PC (because of the angle) obviously like it was said, points will not help, but like the theme of the thread, there is something special about having your own private pool...
I stayed by this house this past summer & last December when it was just renovated...

Back on topic... Head somewhere cold for better dressed folk. Cold climate vacations are way underrated.

going to cold places is hard, you have to pack so much more!!!

Just came across this (planing a summer getaway)
I find the beauty of a forum is ppl from so different backrounds can collaborate on something we share.
