The southeast US is awesome, but be prepared to see some "interesting" people and cultures. Atlanta is an awesome city and is quite entertaining with lots to do. I visit South Carolina almost on a regular basis now, so if you're in the neighborhood, give me a shout or a PM and I'd be happy to meet you for dinner or something.

Tennessee has a lot to do in it as well.

Well we will probably be doing some of the old southern cities, to get some of that real southern spirit and food. And then visit some of the most beautifull landscapes. We might even jump ut of the car on on to a horse for a few days. The world looks different from the back of a horse.

Graceland might be an option, dont know if the wife will be that interested, but in nashville we will be lookin for some johnny cash memories.

Ashville, thats near the smokey mountains. Are they worth a visit?

Lol beaver lake, that's the ozarks. Maybe we will do an all aoe3 tour, see the ozarks, the bayou, carolina,...

@ soccer, when we have our final plans i'll pm you and see if you are somewhere nere.

thanx allready guys

Lazy, I'd say you should jump aboard that flight and get over onto this side of the Atlantic. Then both of you could chill in NYC for a while--and we do have a few pubs with Leffe on tap; believe me--I checked. 8)
