SLO is San Luis Obispo, not sure what LBC is. Edit: Sky beat me to it.

Only thing I remember about SLO from my trip to Cali was the restaurant I went to that served really good apple pancakes.

SLO - especially Pismo Beach. I really love it there, I go there about two to three times a year because my grandma and cousins live there. I love Splash Cafe, it has the best clam chowder.

Santa Barbara is also nice.

I love San Francisco, California. (I'd LOVE to live there or in Lake Tahoe but they're both so dang expensive!)

Santa Cruz, California is also nice, it's sort of a hippie town.

Chico, California is a cute little town. I was going to go to college there but changed my mind last minute.

Humboldt is beautiful but soooo cold! I got in to college there too. I mostly like the national parks, like Patrick's Point.

I HATE most of LA, but I like some of it, like Santa Monica.

San Diego is pretty, especially Carlsbad which is a city by it.

Sacramento is ok, I feel I'm obligated to say that. There are good parts, my neighborhood is nice and I like it downtown. It gets way too hot in the summer (115 this year) and cold in the winter, it was 35 yesterday morning.

Non-California cities:

-Portland, Oregon
-Seattle, Washington
-Kauai, Hawaii (technically an island and not a city)
-Vancouver, B.C., Canada
-Edinburgh, Scotland (sooo pretty!)
-London, England
-Dublin, Ireland
-Killarney, Ireland

It's not a city, but I have to say it's Florence, Kentucky.

(It has a water tower that says "Florence Y'all," which makes it everything that's wrong with both Kentucky and the world.)

Budapest, London, Leeds, Barcelona, Venice.

I like Lichfield. It's a very small city which is nice and it has a nice atmosphere. Birmingham is also nice although not at this time of year because it's like people soup! Birmingham also has a cool sushi bar...

Southhampton, England.
(Right above the Isle of Wight, built all around the estuary of the Itching river)

Why?
Because it's home
My Real home I mean, none of the Derby and Sheffield nonsense.
(Although I must Admit, bits of Derby are quite pretty, as charlixsparkles said, just lie many things, it is tainted by my memories of the place.


edit: London : Overrated, sure it has the natural history museum and whatnots, but there are Far too many people about whenever I've been.

I like Lichfield too. However, when I was working with a youth group for naughty kids, this one kid took the mick out of this old man so the old man punched the kid in the face... I still have nightmares about Lichfield bus station.

Boston is my favorite city I'm not quite sure why. I think probably because it's so historical, I can always find something to do, and I can actually find my way around, unlike Manhattan where I get lost all the time.

Cardiff, it may be a crap hole, but it's my crap hole!

Oh, Florence definitely doesn't qualify, but I may have to make up another category so it can win. I love the Florence Y'all water tower--it's the best.

Saint Louis. Chicago is a close second, but I'm biased.

Oh, Saint Louis is nice too, and I love their zoo. =D Went there this summer with my older brother, his wife and children, and my mother. Unfortunately, all we did was go to Six Flags and the St. Louis Zoo the next day. Wish we could have stayed longer, though I was worn out from walking all day for two days. x).

On the other hand, I haven't been to Chicago in years, and last time we went my mother ex-boyfriend made it a nightmare (and my mom refuses to drive there because she gets lost. xD).

I'm the type that likes cities, but can't stand rural areas (I live in a suburb, which is nice, but change is good). I like the hustle and bustle, even though it's not what I would call "pretty" (though they are at night).

They're both about the same distance away, and they're both nice. =D

Paris. Im sure plenty of people could point out things wrong with it, but Im so so so in love with that city. It's absoultely incredible. I've loved it ever since I watched Madeline as a kid, and when I finally got to visit, I nearly cried when the Eiffel Tower started to sparkle. I loved seeing the artists in Montmartre. They'd call out to me in French and told me my hair was pretty, and they liked my dress. I've always loved history too, and Paris reallly has a lot of that. I gave up overpriced shopping nearly every day just to go see some obscure historial things.

Other cities I really like are Vancouver, BC (Probably because they have the coolest Greyhound terminal Ive ever seen. Which was really refreshing after crosscountry travel with stops in desolate wooden shacks they call Greyhound stations along some deserted highway 100 miles outside of Fargo.) And Nice for the colors, shopping, and secret underage drinking with the tour guide.

London - it just has this incredibly hallowed feel about it, even the more modern buildings (unless Lord Norman Foster designed them, pleh. No, Livingstone, you don't live in a hallowed hall, and serves you right.) And believe it or not, I'm quite fond of English food, excepting bangers and things with kidneys in them.

Although I'm sure if I ever went to Oxford, it would be even moreso. I'd just have to avoid Tom Shippey (okay, he's hallowed too, but in a negative ivory-tower sense), and I'd be set with the Great Hall and the Eagle and Child alone.

I love San Francisco. I'm a California girl, born and bred (well, for 6 years, anyway), so that and LA are two of my favorite cities.

I love my current home, Baltimore, MD, as well. There's just something about it that really attract me.

I like Chicago, like many of the people on this thread, but I haven't been there often enough for it to become a fave.

On the other hand, I've only been to Haifa, Israel once, but it's also one of my top 5 favorites.

I tried making a list, in order from most favorite to least (but still loved!), but I can't really do it properly. I can't choose what order they go in.
