Honey (gagging): "Cak!"
FF'er: "Yes, exactly."

Mr. But:

I assume you have "qualified" these destinations through personal experience.

Bethlehem (the "B" in ABE) hosts the world's largest annual music festival (Musikfest) each August, and most of the 1000+ performances are free. Total attendance is in excess of 1 million.

But, you're right...Musikfest lasts 10 days, not 3.

For Bethlehem to qualify, the "T" in TPD would have to be Ten, not Three.
