Okay, i'm cheating, since mine is a country, but what the hell.:D

Where do I start? Whisky, kilts, pubs, the Highlands, bagpipes, haggis, the scenery, the accents and just the culture in general. They all seem to make people come here.:notme:

It's certainly not the weather.:D

Rockefeller Center at Christmastime really cannot be easily described. And so much more.
