I'm in the hot and always humid part of the state- South Florida. I hear Panama City and Destin beaches are beautiful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328940 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:26:54 +0000 cmomma17 2328940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: my in laws just moved to Panama City beach btw! Is that anywhere near you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328938 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:26:16 +0000 cmomma17 2328938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: way up at the tippy top near West Virginia and Maryland! Just outside of what is referred to as "nova" or northern Virginia. Love Busch Gardens! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328914 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:15:04 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2328914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: what part of VA? I visited the Natural Bridge with DH when we were dating; I think it was on our way to Busch Gardens from Roanoke. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328852 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 12:41:42 +0000 cmomma17 2328852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: if they were coming to my area at this time of the year (I'm in Virginia) it would be some kind of farmers market/apple orchard/pumpkin patch.<br /> We have a nice old town area with a walking mall that is really nice year round. Restaurants, shops, neat buildings.<br /> We also have a nice, small, museum about the history of our area if people are history buffs and a really cute kids museum if visitors had kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328826 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 12:32:49 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2328826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in Texas, so taking them out for Tex-Mex and BBQ are usually on the list. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328441 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 09:41:07 +0000 snowjewelz 2328441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in NY, so I never ever ever do any touristy things unless with visitors! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328264 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 08:45:11 +0000 Alivoo01 2328264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take them out to eat at our favorite joints and see what they'd like to see and take them there. If no preference, I'd take them somewhere important/historical or with a killer view! Something that can't see/do in their hometown. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328202 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 08:25:15 +0000 lamariniere 2328202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to have some first time visitors next month, and I'm so excited! We live in a European capital with lots of tourist attractions, so we'll probably hit up a number of them. Depending on how long guests stay, I always suggest at least one of the major museums, the palace, a walk around the city center, a ride on the tram, at least one decent restaurant, and then if the people have kids, either the zoo or the aquarium or possibly a carriage ride. My guests will be here when the Christmas markets are open, so I'm sure we will check out those too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-first-time-visitors#post-2328138 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 07:58:07 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2328138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like to do very Florida touristy things like gator swamp tours or hit up South Beach. Visitors are also an excuse to go to my favorite Mexican restaurant although a Cuban restaurant may be more Florida-ish. </p> <p>We have some visitor veterans coming with first time visitors, so I'm putting my activity list together and trying to make everything fresh and new. </p>
