Boston Garden. Got to bring my Mom (her and my Dad were from the area) to watch the Cs play in the final season of the Gah-den. Sitting in the old, ricketty, uncomfortable, seats. Listening to the organ, no light show, looking at the banners in the rafters, you could just feel the history. I got to go down and walk on the floor after the game. One of the things I had to do before I die.
There was a little spot in Japan, maybe 45 min. or so from Yokota, AB. Back in the late 80s it was called the Rock. It was about a 20 foot or so waterfall on a creek. Had some fun times up there.
San Diego
Riverwalk in San Antonio - Casa Rio was good Mexican food and there was an English Pub style place that was pretty fun too. Nice to go to the Riverwalk then walk over to the Alamodome and see the Spurs play.
Ft. Lauderdale
Sometimes I miss DC too.

Back in 2002 I took a Carribean cruise, and one of the stops was Nassau. We spent all night partying in the Atlantis casino, and the following morning we had bloody mary's and did the shark tank water slide for hours. Great fun, very cool spot, and pretty awesome indoor-outdoor aquarium.
Side note- we got to chatting with one of the pit bosses in the casino. Really cool guy. He said celebrities come through there constantly, and pointed out a high-stakes private room where he said Michael Jordan dropped 6 figures in one card game just the week before.
