When I travel I often try to prepare by looking for options I should check out in any area I’ll be visiting.
When time allows, I look up Rare Bookstores, used or specialty book stores as well as unique stores or places I have in the past found to provide opportunity for unique treasures. Sometime I recall a place mentioned previously by a member here.
I also often try to keep in mind if other members may reside nearby who I might be able to meet while passing through or those who can suggest the “Don’t miss” spots in any given location whether it be a fabulous diner, a special event, the best brewery, a flea-market that often yields significant items or a vista with a remarkable view.

With that in mind I am starting this thread so those traveling may inquire of locals or others that have been there to share “WHERE TO GO”.
