Beirut
A recent article in The New York Times lists Beirut as the top destination to visit in 2009. Click here for the full interactive article.
If you are thinking about visiting Beirut, well, stop thinking about it and just do it
. Please do let me know if you are planning on visiting; would love to help out in any way I can (no, I do not work for the Ministry of Tourism 
).
Hope to see you soon in my neck of the woods...

I read that article and smiled--I loved Beirut when I went there, and wish I could get back. Unfortunately, even though I will be in the neighborhood in March and was thinking about a quick stop, it looks like 2009 will not be the year...our travel budget is much reduced in these troubled times.
