NAME AND DESCRIBE YOUR TOP 5 VACATIONS AND VACATION SPOTS (not requiring overseas flight)

1. Los Angeles. I will likely lose all rights to live in the Bay Area, but I LOVE Los Angeles - the beaches, laid back nightlife, great restaurants, and everyone there thinks they're hot shit and their life is a movie... because I love people watching, I consider this the ultimate free entertainment spot. Hopefully my fellow NorCal denizens won't boot me out of the city with recommendation #2:
2. Sonoma/Russian River Valley. Hands down, a fantastic vacation spot, especially in spring or fall. In the summer it's hot and overcrowded (though not nearly as bad as Napa). Great wineries, gorgeous scenery, fabulous hiking or biking. Spas galore if you'd like a massage.
3. Sedona. One of the more breathtaking parts of the country. The Red Rocks are extremely cool, and everyone is pretty chill.
4. Las Vegas. 'Nuff said. [note to self - look into trip... been too long since I've been there]
5. I'd say NY, but that wouldn't help you. So.... Ft. Lauderdale/Miami/South Beach. South Beach is better for a 3 day trip, though as it tends to be sort of exhausting. But if you like eye candy, it's a great place to go. I am more partial to Ft. Lauderdale because it's more sedate and great for just lounging and enjoying a beautiful sunset while sipping a glass of wine or a margarita (at least, that's what I call vacation). If you want more nightlife, head to Miami.
