The True Marple White Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 As part of the 12 days of Christmas app for iPhone, one of the days they gave away a lonely planet guide to travel for 2012. Just had a flick through and guimareas is 6th in the top 10 cities of the world! Was there really that much to do there?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Carlos Posted January 8, 2012 Moderators Share Posted January 8, 2012 How many people went up to the castle? Also, there's a church on top of a big fucking hill, walked up there in summer and nearly died. Great view. Not in my top 10 cities though.

Site Supporter Spider Posted January 8, 2012 Site Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2012 orlando at no 9 Without seeing the list, I can tell you that if Orlando is in it, the list is cat shit. Orlando is a shithole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent_white Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I recall very little from Guimareas, aside from seeing my mate drive past in the back of a taxi on the way to the ground, sound asleep wearing a Campo wig T minus 40 minutes to kick off. I do remember that Porto is a fantastic city for shopping, providing you're only in the market for a handbag or some cake, which are the only two items available.

Walkden26 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Orlando is quality - never been to downtown Orlando but I-Drive etc is quality with some fantastic theme parks. Shits on anything this country has. 14th May and i'll be back there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazza Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 My top 10 cities visited are in no particular order Edinburgh Prague Lisbon San Francisco Honolulu Amsterdam Galle Dubai Innsbruck Las Vegas Ones that just missed out, Porto, Guimaraes (for the great time i had there, i only really remember a square full of Wanderers fans and a frothing fountain), Sacramento, Newcastle (for the nightlife), St Andrews, Munich I can't say which is better than another, depending on mood they're all brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted January 9, 2012 Moderators Share Posted January 9, 2012 I did some sight seeing. Went up the hill on the cable car and had some fish eye stew at the cafe at the top. I had a fucking big ice cream and lots of water. I do remember that Porto is a fantastic city for shopping, providing you're only in the market for a handbag or some cake, which are the only two items available. You are sorted if you need some meat as well. I've never been so happy to see a KFC sign before. Now, I'd head up to the Dolce Vita next to the Dragao for all your UK high street brands.

Walkden26 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 So, you've never actually been to Orlando then, have you? Well actually I have. International Drive is in Orlando so figure it out. The point you seem to make is that I haven't been to downtown Orlando which would be like saying I have been to Long Island but not New York.

Well, if you think that International Drive makes it one of the world's top cities, fair play to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walkden26 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Well, if you think that International Drive makes it one of the world's top cities, fair play to you. I stated earlier why I like Orlando but don't recall saying it was one of the world's top cities. Not sure why people dislike it so much. It is one of the only places you can go for 3 weeks and have something completely new to do every day all day. If its not peoples cup of tea fair enough but I would much rather go there for a holiday than sit on my arse drinking lager on the beach all day.

Boothy Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Fuckin' hell the thread is about the worlds top 10 cities. Not metropolitan areas. Florida is just an up market Benidorm. There are far, far nicer places where you can seek adventure. If your after theme parks opt for California, so much more on offer without the council house families who have saved up.
