Where would you go?
 

I have won a trip for four and have been given 18 cities to choose from. I won't list them all because some places I will not go to.

Narrowed it down to 7 nights in Sapporo,JP or 5 nights in europe at either Chamonix,Fr. ,Albertville,Fr.,Grenoble,Fr. ,Innsbruch, Austria, Oslo,Norway ,Lillehamer, Norway, St. Moritz, Switz.,Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Ger., or Cortina D'ampezzo, Italy.

Where would you go and why:question:

I'd take the free trip to somewhere I'd otherwise not plan to visit, so Italy, France and Germany are off my list. I think I'd pick Norway on that basis.

I'd probably check out Japan, just because it seems like a culture we see alot less of over here than european things/traditions/cultures.

Switzerland = mmm chocolate
France = mmmm pastries
Italy = mmmm pasta

:wink:


Although I do agree with Matt, I don't know how high Norway (or Japan for that matter, I can fumble my way through the romance languages but when they're not even using the same alphabet...) would be on my list without the free trip so I'd probly take the opportunity to check them out :biggrin:

Depends on if you can extend it yourself or not. If you can, I would pick somewhere in europe that is cheap to get to other places, maybe france on that basis.

First of all....CONGRATS!!! That's great!:biggrin:

Personally, it would depend on what is included. If it's all expenses paid, except for souvenirs and personal purchases of course, then I'd be jumpin' all over Japan. Given that it's so expensive there I think that you'd be getting most out of your winnings if you went there. (If it's all expenses paid, of course).
A little biased , too, in that when I collected stamps as a kid, I was always intrigued by the Japanese stamps and have always wanted to go there...someday...as a result.
But whatever you decide, I'm sure it will be awesome.
Can't beat a freebie!:smile:

Looking forward to hearing about it, if you care to share.

Bon voyage and cheers,:smile:

Congrats on the win Jeff.:)

If you've never been to Europe, you wouldn't be disapointed by going there.:)

I've never been to the other place so I can't comment on them. :)

Sapporo Japan is supposed to be very similar to parts of BC (or at least the closest you'll get to home if you're in that overcrowded country). Lots of snowcapped mountains and Sapporo Ichiban BEER!!! I would still love to visit there with the wifey.

If you've never been to Europe & can travel from one country to another, then yeah, I'd go for Europe. It's bloody expensive there so if it's all expenses, whoo hoo. Depends whatcha looking for out of this trip. Seeing museums & landmarks, then Europe. Experiencing a totally foreign culture, Japan is great for that.

We're soooooo green with envy.

BTW, feel free to leave my contact number with whoever is watching your place if you want, in case of tank questions.

Thanks all.

Well we had a family meeting and have decided on Sapporo. Nagano was also on the list but didn't look as appealing as Sapporo. We all have been to europe. I also have up to Nov 2007 to use it.

Everything but meals is covered including car rental. They say the trip is worth 25 thousand. Full retail of course. I won it with the instant win from Coke. Even I get lucky once in a while:biggrin: .
