Hubby and I went and played dominoes at Domino College on the island of Nevis while on our honeymoon. Very cool! [smilie=superkewl.gif]

Can't say I went because of Jimmy's lyrics, but it's difficult to be traveling around Havana and other parts of Cuba and not have "Havana Daydreamin'" running through your mind.

Buzios. If you're thinking of going somewhere in another country, this is very much worthwhile, and very affordable as well.

Yeah, that's what I thought, but the drive from New Orleans to Pascagoula was way more interesting than the town! or the docks!
I loved my drive along the Gulf Coast, and how could I forget Biloxi! That snowbird just to walk on the sand.

Plenty of places. When we're planning our vacations, I try to sneak in a city/place that has some Buffett-places (Lulu's at Gulf Shores, for example).
Then the hubbie finds out and says, "SO THIS IS WHY YOU WANTED TO GO HERE !!!!"

:oops:

Which makes we wonder: why hasn't anybody made a little book about traveling to 'Buffett' places , kinda like a larger world-wide version of the Margaritaville tour in KW? I'd buy it. and hide it from the hubbie

And I'm still waiting for somebody to sell those "NOW" watches. *sigh* Guess I'll have to make my own. :wink:

"Nothing like this way out in west Texas
Galveston Bay is a whole other world"

I live a hop, skip, and a jump from Galveston and the bay...

Cafe DuMonde is always on my places to stop in New Orleans..
I must be wishing on someone else's star....

I went to Paris looking for answers. Came home and broke up with her.

I went to Negril for chicken. Found it at The Pork Shack.

I went to Lindbergh's grave in Maui after I read Jimmy's liner notes on Beach House.
