I recently saw a list of “worst” attractions. Not sure of their criteria. Here are mine:
Hollywood Walk of Fame (hokey)
Stonehenge (big disappointment)
Venice canals (stinky)
Any bull ring in Spain (they all look the same!)
Statue of stars, Hong Kong (reminds me of Hollywood)
Macao (basically, Las Vegas east)
Universal Studios (terribly boring)
London Eye (go to the country fair instead!)
Napa Wine Train (an expensive ride for mediocre food and wine)
Any wax museum (enough said)
But to be fair, there are many great ones:
Amazonia (one of the two best places I have been)
Angkor Wat (ditto)
Berlin Wall (no longer there)
Torres del Paine (magnificent)
Milford Sound (ditto)
Tsukiji Fish Market (Tokyo) truly unique, now gone!!
van Gogh Museum (like a dream)
Our great National Parks
Fenway or Wrigley (shrines to baseball)
The Serengeti (a lifetime experience)
And some experiences do not matter where the place might be:
Dinner or drinks with friends
Family parties and gatherings
Country drive through the famous Blossom Trail
Any National Park
Almost any live theater or music event
Any bicycle ride
Seeing a long lost friend
Remembering that I am retired
Saying “manana” to things I don’t want to do
Taking a college course just for fun!
