Where to go in the US for 2 weeks?

Edit - Also like how you put to have a awesome time as a posed to going on holiday to have a purposely bad time.

Mate I've had a shocking few days. An awesome time means just that. I wont settle for a great or amazing time, it has to be AWESOME :p
 
Someone was telling me about a 2 week trip they did to the US, New York -> Philadelphia -> Atlantic City.

Would love to do that myself one time, but I'm already going to NY on Sunday and Vegas in September so can't fit it in :x

I did it in December minus Philly

Well done it twice actually, once I drove to AC and 2nd time on Greyhound bus
 
I'd like to do something like new york > washington dc > vegas > san fran > san diago but won't have the time nor money :p Quite Fancy going to Texas as well for some weird reason.

I'd probably choose west coastish, Vegas, San Francisco, LA\San Diago, all a short flight away from each other or just drive it. Gives you 3 different reasonably different places to see.

Never been to New York and whilst I'm not sure we'll find it as amazing as people say I think we still need to try it so might book up a few nights soon and take a look. I'd love to get DC in at the same time but won't have the time, seems a shame to go all that way and not get it done. Aw well, next time.
 
Nice, it's on my list.

How did you find Atlantic City?

Drove down the Garden Expressway and there it was :p

just kidding

I like the place but if you aren't into gambling then it's prob not for you ( maybe different in summer )

It's like an old ,mini Vegas

The poker is good, nightlife imited in the week but we find it a fun,relaxed place
 
First time to USA you want either : Orlando-Miami-Key West or California(San diego,San Fran,LA)/Nevada (Vegas).

For both you want to basically do a "fly drive" planning your route depending on what you like to do most. Apartments/Villas can be surprisingly cheap make sure you look in to these.
 
we flew into Atlanta and drove around the toe of Florida, the keys, then up to daytona, myrtle beach, Savannha, Charleston etc then inland in to the Smokies Mountains, Gatlinburg just cant be missed, across to Chatanooga and back to Atlanta for flight home. Flights £400, car £270 for a brand spanking mustang, and winged it all the way.
bestest holday ever, even better than Dubai honeymoon.
We deliberately avoided interstates and major tourist attractions and made an effort to meet real americans, not tourist workers. if we saw a truck stop with trucks we stopped for food, and never ate at any of the major chains. We did swamp donkeys and ate gator burgers, sport fishing off a white boat off Florida, dossed in a flea pit in Tampa, ate Cuban food with the neighbours on Sandy beach Key Largo, and a terrible Italian in Myrtle, followed by world class Italian in Gatlinburg, we had to wait an hour for our seat.
Change from £2k, and a chunk went on the boat off Florida.

This year we are flying to New York for 4 days, then the TRAIN across to California, then pick up the rag top, drive all the way down the Big Sur , down again to Mexico, fish the Bar Har, then home. Phew, and golf as well.
