Show of hands. Who would rather go to the mountains than the beach? Anyone else?
Both. I would also include polar regions and deserts and say, all four.
Mountains. I live in Southwest Florida, tired of seeing beaches and my dates wanting to walk on them with someone. LOL
I live in the mountains so beach would be a welcome change of scenery. And, I love the sound of the ocean. The waves. The gulls. Miss it
A mountain lake is my pick!
What she said.
We have both in a very short distance... I could conceivably do both in the same day.
The mountains are very beautiful but I enjoy the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, seagulls flying in the air and the taste of salt on my lips. There is not where else so peaceful than a deserted beach with only you, the sand, sun and water. Very relaxing.
As nice as the beach is, give me some mountain air, the scent of pine and juniper, the rustle of the leaves in the aspens, and the sound of a river or creek running nearby. Nothing else in nature gives me the peace I get up there away from the noise.
