thank you to everyone for tuning into this thread and i hope you all enjoyed it and had fun!!

i just want to say that i started this off as more of a joke but it ended up with me gushing about all of these places that i love so much :’)
i was probably a bit overly harsh on the earlier places for the sake of being funny, so i want to say that i don’t dislike or hate *any* of these places, and i hope i inspired you to come and visit some day!!!
