  I pretty much only use Bnb now.

  Thanks. For the price, it seemed too good to be true, but I couldn't see anything that indicated there was a catch.

  Instead of the surf trip I mentioned in this thread previously, I'm now leaning towards going back to Puerto Rico for a long weekend in the spring. More of a relaxation focused trip. Also, direct flights from NYC are a steal right now.
  
  Most likely staying in Culebra the entire time. Anyone ever been? Trying to figure out the logistics for getting there from San Juan via plane or ferry from Fajardo.

  I'm going down to Biloxi, MS this weekend with a couple of friends from college since one of them got a free 3 night stay at the Beau Rivage Casino. I think one day we are going to go to New Orleans since none of us have ever been. This work week go by fast enough.

  I hit California for the first time last week. Went to LA from Sunday to Friday.
  
  Don't really want to go back. Too busy for me.

  Got back from Vegas on Wednesday.
  
  You guys were right. The experience with AirBnB was fantastic. Four nights in a condo in a gated community for under $400, and it was only like 4-5 miles from the strip, so it was close enough for a quick Uber.
  
  I hardly slept, but it was worth it. The food was fantastic, as always. Did TopGolf for the first time, which was fun. Went to a party at Airstream Park and met Tony Hsieh. Met Rick Flair near the conference. Saw a bunch of weird shit. Had a few really good drinks.
  
  Damn, I love that city.

  Does he not like Vegas?
  
  Of course, I'm not sure he'd have "a few" good drinks. Pretty sure he'd kill himself of alcohol poisoning.

  In Texas for awhile and had some free time so went to see the Alamo, the riverwalk (really cool, would be a blast in the summer), some spanish missions, japanese tea garden in san antonio and then in austin the longhorns stadium, a natural spring pool and a few other things. Pretty nice areas and a few good joints for food .

  Headed to Mexico City for presidents weekend. Anyone ever been? Recommendations?
  
  We are going to Quintonnil, which is a top 20 restaurant in the world. With the exchange rate, the meal is pretty damn cheap. Pretty pumped.

  I would be extremely careful with food. I got sicker than a dog while in mexico city few yrs ago. I would only eat cooked food, even fruits and veggies washed in the water (which I didn't think of SMH) was enough to give me the shits for 2.5 days.

  So jealous.
  
  If want at 16, the stadium hole, you have to get there basically the night before from what I have heard.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Yeah that's what I heard too. I think we are all assuming we won't be able to get to 16. Oh well.

  Vegas in two weeks for my annual trip there.

  My brother went a few times when he lived in PHX and always had a blast. I love their weather this time of year, too.

  Sure beats 2degrees, which is what I'm dealing with for another 2-3 hours before I leave!
