Niagara was was awesome, the scenery, the noise, the history. Want to go back again this time in winter and see the difference from a summer trip.

After checking the updated list I was surprised to see that Brugge in Belgium was not listed - was there on Monday and it was magnificent. A quick day trip from Paris on the Thalys train and just cross the road from the station and you start your trip back into history.

I would like to ask the AFF community to nominate 3 (only 3 please) places that should be on the T100 and your reasons why. Please feel free to nominate somewhere that's already nominated - this will allow the list to be ordered.

Can I impose one rule please - if you feel the need to bag anyone's post, flame them for their choice or anything else similar (I.E chat about, promote, relay your experiences), go to the playground and open a new thread, don't do it here. Let's see if we can keep on topic

Thanks for sticking to the rules - there is a lot of work on the list to date and I would love to see a finalised list!
