In Wisconsin we call Coke, etc. pop. We also have "bubblers".

When I was growing up the in the mountains of North Carolina, soft drinks were called "dopes."

Speaking of which, driving down the Northern Highway the other day there was a sign at a construction site: "Coke traffic only."

I would say the walk from Banana Beach to town was about 25 minutes. I stayed at Mata Rocks just next door last week and walked to town each day.

I am an avid coke lite drinking whilst in AC (you can also get diet coke in a can at the market at a huge cost because it's imported). It was always called "pop" where I grew up in upstate New York. And a soda was something different

In the New England area they refer to soda as tonic. I was surprised to find a bunch of Cokes in the fridge when I was told I would find tonic.

Don't forget your flashlight when you are walking back to BB from town in the evening (one for each member of your party)!
Growing up south of the M/D line in places like Norfolk, Annapolis, Charleston, Jacksonville and way south in Gitmo it was always Coke. In Macon it was Coke or RC. Visiting the old homestead up near New Haven, my grandma and the dozens of cousins, it was soda.

No matter what you call it, it's still really bad for you. And the diet ones are poison.

We'll be staying at Banana Beach 9/13-9/21. That's good to know about the walk. I'm sure we'll walk it at least once a day.
