3 Days or Less -- an introduction

A (long) while back, working full time began sucking away at all my free time. And even though work technically gives you "weeks" of vacation in a year, the reality is, I don't really have time to take "weeks" (or week) at a time. So I started ignoring lengthy vacations and taking shorter weekend trips instead (some of these being tacked on to work weeks abroad). Based in San Francisco, I soon learned that there were plenty of places that you could travel to if you have 3 days or less.

Just to clarify, I started traveling for 3 days or less several years ago. However, it wasn't until friends started asking me for "best hits" lists for various cities when I realized that I should probably document these trips somewhere. And so, "3 Days or Less" (3DoL) is born today. It's not the end all, be all travel guide for each city, but it's the best (and worst) of what I have done in all of these places...in 3 days or less. Enjoy!

P.S. I do realize I have a backlog of cities to cover, so as a teaser, some of these include: Portland, Phoenix / Scottsdale, Zermatt, Maui, Big Island, Oahu, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Tokyo, New York City, Chicago, Barcelona, Hanoi..and the list goes on.
