Top 2 presidential destinatios... Would you like to try too?


Would you like to enjoy going to the same destination as most presidents and important people? Well, read below and witness the amazing Top2 for their favorite destinations....
1.

BahamasFranklin Delano Roosevelt was a man of many travels, but it wasn't all work and no play. In fact, the 32nd President traveled south to the Bahamas on fishing expeditions several times during his presidency. It's no wonder FDR made the trek — besides its crystal-clear water and soft sandy beaches, the Bahamas are known for excellent deep-sea and bone fishing. With near-constant fishing events and competitions, as well as experienced guides, fishing lodges, and charter boats on nearly every Bahamian shore, there's no shortage of ways and places to cast a line in the Bahamas. You might have a real "fish tale" to tell once you've vacationed in this premier sport-fishing spot — the islands claim more than 50 record catches.

2.

Catoctin Mountain ParkYou'll know you've hiked too close to Camp David, the 125-acre mountain retreat used by every president since FDR, when you're stopped, "X-Files" style, by armed secret-service agents. Dubbed Shangri-La by FDR and renamed by Eisenhower in honor of his grandson, Camp David is situated in a top-secret location within Maryland's forested Catoctin Mountain Park, where camping, picnicking, fly-fishing, and cross-country skiing welcome presidents and civilians who come to escape the sweltering heat of Washington, D.C., 60 miles to the southwest. Stay in one of the quaint-but-austere cabins built by the Works Progress Administration in the '30s, or head to the nearby town of Thurmont and book a room at the historic Cozy, an inn and restaurant packed with presidential memorabilia.
