My girlfriend and I are taking a long weekend off in September and wanna go on a short trip to get out of CT for a few days. We're gonna leave on a Thursday morning and come back on Monday night, so we basically get to enjoy the full weekend wherever we go. The big question is WHERE to go!
- She's been to Miami a few times and loves it there, so she suggested that when the idea of a trip first came up. I've never been to Miami except for a few hours on a cruise, so I've never really experienced it.
- I've been to Vegas four times and I absolutely love it there (I'd go twice a year if I had the money and time available). She's never been to Vegas and has no idea what she's missing. Of the four times I've been, two were with my uncle (good times), one was with a buddy of mine (ridiculous time), and one was with my ex from a few years ago (also a very good time).
- The decision has pretty much been put in my hands and I know for a fact that she's 100% cool with either choice. We both like seeing new places but we both love the one we've each been to.
Right now, I'm leaning towards Vegas because a) I think everyone on this planet should experience it at some point and I know she'd have a blast, and b) I absolutely love taking people there who have never been there before. It's a lot more fun going with someone who's never been and showing them around and seeing their first-time reactions to everything than going with someone who knows the deal.
Also, as much as some people will probably say "Vegas isn't a place to go with your significant other, it's a place to go with your guy friends", my girlfriend is very unique and I know I'd have just as much fun with her in Vegas as almost any of my guy friends (especially considering I'm not single and I would never cheat on her because she's ****in awesome).
Still open to input and haven't made a final decision, though, so let's hear some thoughts! :rockon:
