Half Dome: Places on the edge?
Hiked to the top of Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. You are quite literally on the edge as you scale the granite monolith. It's intense! See More
Los Angeles: Area an hour away from LAX airport
Definitely Santa Monica or Venice Beach. I love Manhattan Beach as many people have suggested...it's beautiful and very close to the airport, but not exactly a tourist destination. Santa Monica and Venice... See More
New York City: Calling all New Yorkers! What makes New York City great?
Hi Lok -- Love your question! 1) I love New York because, at any given moment, there is an infinite number of possibilities for what can happen and what is happening. 2) I'm going to take advantage of your slashes in this answer: Wander the West Village/American... See More

Hi all, I am planning a trip for my husband and I to visit a few spots after a friend's wedding in London. We've got about 7 days, going Sunday to Sunday in October. Here's my skeleton itinerary: Sunday - London to Brussels via train. ... See More
St Thomas: Best Activities and Boat Companies
Hello! We're headed to St. Thomas in mid-July. It'll be my husband, my sister and her boyfriend and my parents for a total of 6 of us. We'll be staying at the Marriott, but don't want to spend all day every day at the hotel. My husband and I plan to... See More

The only thing you'll find at McSorleys and Rudy's are fratty types and very suspect drunken types. Don't go to Midtown for anything authentic. Many of my favorite old spots have been closed, but a few still exist... If you want to stick to Manhattan, check... See More
New York City: Favorite NY Steakhouse?
I haven't been to a ton of steakhouses in the city, but out of the ones I have been to, I would recommend Old Homestead Steak House and Maloney & Porcelli though both would definitely qualify as $$$. Peter Lugers isn't... See More
Maui: What to do with one day in Maui! What should I do?
Depends on what you like to do!! The Road to Hana takes an entire day, so if you're hoping to hang on a beach at all, this wouldn't allow for that, especially if you're staying on the Lahaina side (if you're up north by Pa'ia, it'd be easier). I... See More
Los Angeles: Where do I go for a good hike?
If you want a decent out-of-the-city-limits hike, try Temescal Canyon Park as suggested by some of the other folks here. If you want a pretty fun, yet serious workout, try Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook in Culver City. It's a... See More
