I think most of you go to the tourist traps. Meanwhile, the #1 tourist destination in the US and the World, according to Conde Nast, is Charleston, SC.

Most probably do and I loved the times I've been in Charleston. My only complaint is Kiawah is too far from downtown.

You know, there are talks about widening the road to Kiawah.

Her fat ass is laughing all the way to dialysis and then to the bank.

Because most of us have been there.

Yeah, I'm not really buying that.

.....says the guy from the state with <1% black people. They're probably the football and basketball teams for UM and MSU

And those brothers have their pick of the litter of cute, dumb white girls.

You're in the majority.

To be honest, the survey listed Cape Town is #2. I don't know about the #1 spot for the world, but we are consistently a top city in the US. Canadians love SC, Myrtle Beach in particular.

I can believe that it's one of the top places in the US, but Paris, London and Rome are the top three in the world in terms of tourist volume, IIRC.

I'd agree with you.

Chucktown doesn't make Forbe's US top 10, which is good for those of us who can make it a weekend trip.

Easier for us that live here. Btw, we thank you all for your tourist dollars. It helps us control the rest of the state.

AFAIK, the Conde Nast ranking isn't about volume.

It can't be. I don't know the numbers, but NYC has a greater volume than CHS. I believe it is tied to the history, the appeal, Conde Nast voters, etc...

The only thing that isn't fake is her southern accent...well she might exaggerate it to some extent. Her food is decent, certainly not great, but she is one hell of a businesswoman who has perfected and sells her "brand" well. The tourons are lined up and wrap around her restaurant every...single...day.

SHe exaggerates. I've been on a few shoots with her. Other than no concern for kitchen sanitation (licking spoons and then reusing that spoon to serve, i.e) she has a great publicist. That is the key to being a celebrity chef, a publicists. Have you been to Lady and Sons or her sons restaurant? Horrible food.

I've had to go once. You know how it is when family and guests come to town..."I just have to go and eat there." The food is only decent Cracker Barrel quality. Her other restaurant on WIlmington Island, which is more geared for the locals, is a little better than decent...but not much.

I've been there. After I alerted the waiter to the roach in my wifes soup, they asked if we wanted another bowl. Obviously not. THen they put up a fuss when I refused to pay for the live roach soup.
