00:24it and they just announced their best travel 2027 list now they say the goal is not to tell
00:31everybody to go to the same spot right it's to help people find experiences that make them want to go
00:37to someplace new so they're highlighting places that may not normally be at the top of your list
00:43okay um so i will say that these have been chosen by their more than 1 000 travel experts there

02:12but you know like you think of your southern states there's like a cluster of them and then
02:16this is a different one that is a huge vacation destination already south carolina i mean i guess
