If you want nice beaches and good relaxation, you should visit Michigan! ^_^

Er, I meant, I can be a good tour guide for south Texas! But I have to return to work on August 20th. You can also experience Hispanic/Mexican culture there if you like.

The crux of the problem is that a lot of places in America require you to drive. Here in Texas, we have the Houston space center (good if you're into that stuff), the state capital building in Austin, along with the DKR stadium where the Texas Longhorns play football! You must also try delicious Mexican food here in south Texas. But again, you need a car. I used to have a boyfriend from Japan and he visited Texas and I used to show him around. Japanese people seem to like the Austin/San Antonio area, which is 2 hours from my city. America is such a vast area to explore that I myself have not experienced every place! New York was particularly fun because you do not need a car to explore. But it seems you've already explored most of NEw York City. LA is the same. Funny thing, because I just got back from San Diego, CA yesterday. There's a LOT to see in San Diego. Beautiful! But you need a car if you can drive. I visit there every summer because my brother lives there. I know the area pretty well and it's never crowded. In LA, you have Universal studios, Disneyland in Anaheim and the LA Angels baseball game (yup, I took my old boyfriend there several years ago). I didn't like Disneyland because it's so crowded! If you know contacts in Texas as well, it's a unique area. It's not the typical American sites like LA or New York, but it's a good experience! San Antonio itself can take a week to explore! If you need some help, let me know! When are you going to vacation?
