Choose an interesting vacation spot!
Choose a vacation spot out of the ones listed. Don't a be a poll nazi and say "gee whiz, I wanted to visit Wisconsin! Where is Wisconsin on this list? You are a total ******* monkspider. This poll just makes no sense. I want to stab your eyes out with travel brochures! You shall rue the day that you slighted Wisconsin, and by extension, me." Or even worse, "You have not defined vacation properly, are we talking about a week? a couple days? a month? This poll is not valid".
Anyway, no tropical resorts here, just lots of interesting cities. Out of the above choices, I voted for Constantinople, with Berlin a close second.

Hawaii is cool and all, but the general theme of this poll is to stick to metopolitan areas and so forth.

Don't be dumb, the Australians all smell; have sex with farm animals; and cheat at cricket.
Don't spend your holidays with such genetic and moral throwbacks.

(For the slow)
It was a joke, in that that was the only thing I objected to in your list.

There are important things you forgot.
For example
Barcelona, Spain
or
Io, Jupiter
or
Titan, Saturn
but maybe better
Thetys, Saturn
as Titan is too clouded and you therefore probably have a very bad view on Saturn

From those possibilities I'd chose Rome, where NY is close second... Have been in Italy twice, but never been to Rome... yet
As for the Berlin option... I don't get it... it's almost as boring as the city I live in now... no wait, nothing can go that low... but it's defently not a city I would want to stay in for too long...
Been there twice, wouldn't go there again, unless I'm forced...

Berlin is a shithole and should be buried under 100m of concrete, minimum! With all the buildings over that size (which are pretty much only the TV towers) destroyed before, of course. Oh and make it 200m over the governmental area, better safe than sorry!
Of the listed, none would appeal me much, because I don't like to be in big cities. I've had this dubious privilege for way too long and am officially sick of it. If somebody forced me to vote, it would probably be New York, Cairo, Beijing or Tokyo.
Oh before I forget: You are a total ******* monkspider! Where is Mingapulco? Or Bananastan, for that matter?

There is one time in the year where it might be interesting to go to Berlin.
The time, when the Loveparade takes Place.
Of course this might be the only time in the year, where visiting Berlin really could be interesting
Better some Location in Schleswig Holstein or Niedersachsen, where the East Sea or North Sea are nearby
