is a town in Hungary, between Arad (Romania) and Szeged (Hungary). Been there twice; once in March 2007 and once in Aug 2007
The romanian name of that town is Macau. It is the international capital of the onion. As the matter of fact, you can see a monument in the shape of the onion in that city.

Not much of a paradise, actually. I only went there because it's where my father retired to. The only other reason to go there is the fact that the Long Trail passes through it.

I used to teach across the street from the trailhead. The hike to the top was about 2 Km and passed eighty-eight stautes of Buddha in various manifestation.

Anegada, BVI- we took an incredible sailing vaction to BVI a few years ago. The sail from Totola to Anegada is wonderful but this was probably the most difficult anchorage we've ever sailed into-heavy reefs and missing buoys.

Last summer we went there for a family reunion and some of my wife's uncles were making fresh ricotta; unfortunately, we had to leave before it was ready.

New Orleans-pre-Katrina- I've spent a few vacations there several years ago and had planned to go the month that Katrina hit- guess I'll wait for a while.
