Vegas, baby. Way too many people. Great place to people-watch though. (read: great place to look at chicks with hardly anything on. Especially at Hard Rock Hotel Pool. Oh. My. God.)

In australia its Sydney.. through my stay in england everyone who was pondering a visit to australia was raving about sydney .. how they had to see it.. im afraid once you gawk at the bridge and opera house there aint much else about it !! in the late 70's / early 80's sydney was having a rough time so the government funded a series of globally distributed promos talking about sydney some featuring paul hogan ("crocodile dundee") and the rest is history, see melbourne, or byron bay , or the gold coast or something , sydney aint all its cracked up to be !! hell even pop in and bug hiero or myself if u wanna see a real BBQ

Without a doubt, Vegas. I tried to be frugal there, but still ended up spending way too much money-- and I'm not into gambling and strippers!

St. Augustine, Florida.
Never heard of it? Me neither, until I moved there and lived there for a year back in the late '90s. It's the "Oldest City In America" and has gangs of tourists year round there. A whole section of downtown has been "preserved" to look like it did when Ponce De Leon arrived there back in the 1500s. I'm talking about Hella amounts of tourists. On the upside, there's always employment to be had, all over town, because they never seem to have enough people working anywhere to handle all the tourists.
