[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We haven't been able to afford international travel- but I've kind of enjoyed all of the places we've visited in the US. Everywhere is a little different with interesting regional and cultural differences. I loved Santa Fe, Northern Michigan, Lake Tahoe, and Hawaii. I like the museums in the bigger cities- Dallas has some amazing art museums, and I like the Walker in Minneapolis. I agree that Denver wasn't great- crowded. 
Once we're empty nesters, for starters, I want to go to Montreal, Paris (just because I've never been), Barcelona, Italy, Scotland, Ireland, etc. I've also heard that Portugal is really nice. [/quote]

Love that you've been to Northern Michigan - way under appreciated, but that's also part of the charm.

Great empty nest ideas. [b]Montreal is Europe without the jet lag.[/b] Okay, not quite, but pretty damn close. I've visited in summer/winter and would love to get DH to go for a long weekend just to shop for their fab winter wear. [/quote]

Quebec City is even better.  Smaller, prettier IMO[/quote]

NP- Yes, Quebec City is stunning, I'm from Europe and I wouldn't say it feels like Europe because I like it better! It's a perfect small city, so much history, and nature around is just gorgeous. If I could legally move to Canada, this is where I'd be moving tomorrow.[/quote]

I've heard they are not very ok with English (only) speakers. I've only been as a visitor and I speak decent French albeit with a Parisian accent so it was fine. I think living and working there would be different. [/quote]

I'm a native French speaker so I can't say. People automatically spoke French in Quebec City and countryside. More English speakers in Montreal, but things might change with new language initiatives.[/quote]
