Other places you would like to visit

[asimpson2006]

Overall I've been thinking a lot lately about places I would like to visit in my life time before my life comes to end.  What are some places that everyone would like to visit.  This doesn't have to include other countries.  Here is my list of places I would like to visit (Not a complete list since there is a lot of places that I would like to visit):

Long Beach CA: Since I've always been into formula style racing I would really like to go visit Long Beach when the Long Beach Grand prix happens or just visit it other wise.

Las Vegas NV:  My parents went there a few years ago, and my uncle has been there several times.  My dad told me I would really like it out there more than I would like Dallas TX, which I want to visit as well.

Jamaica:  My mom and dad have been there twice and now I really want to go there myself.  Sadly I don't have 3,000 sitting around to go there.

South Korea:  Since I used to study Korean martial arts for a few years, I have had an interest in going there to visit.

Australia - It's just a really unique place. Beautiful landscapes, unusual animals, some interesting city sights, and lots of beer and barbecues.

Scotland - My ancestors came from there, so the place has always held some fascination for me. Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing all of Great Britain, having grown up watching a lot of British movies and TV shows. Ireland too, for that matter.

Egypt - I'm fascinated by really large structures, and really ancient things, so this is a natural.

Dubai - Home of many modern-day engineering marvels.

Cape Canavarel, Florida - Pretty self-explanatory.

Baikonur, Khazakhstan - Same reason as Cape Canavarel

The Trinity site, New Mexico - Another area of science/history I can't get enough of.

I've always been fascinated by Russia, probably because the place was so closed off and mysterious behind the Iron Curtain.  I'd like to visit Moscow and maybe even Siberia, Lake Baikal, etc.

Always wanted to go to the UK - London, rural England, and especially Scotland and Ireland.  I'm an avid golfer, so I'd really like to play at St. Andrews, though any links style course would be very cool.

Would like to take a tour of South America.  Hit all the major sights.  I've always found the culture and stuff rather interesting.  Machu Picchu would be awesome.

I've got an odd fascination with the country of Estonia.  I read a book about Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania and it was quite interesting.  Might as well hit Norway while I'm there.

London, England - Always wanted to see the sights there like Big Ben and Buckingham Palace, you know the tourist stuff

Ireland - Some of my family roots are from here

Scotland -  More family roots from here

Moscow, Russia - One reason, onion domes

Tokyo, Japan - It just seems interesting to me

the Pyramids of Giza - Ancient Wonder of the World is why

South Africa - Want to see how huge Trevor's underpants collection is.  Seriously, know a woman from there who makes it sound lovely enough to visit

Luxembourg - Think it's cause it's the smallest country in Europe (I believe the world but can't remember) has it's appeal to me

Mars - Sure we can't go to it now but would like to think that we will be able to one day visit it in my lifetime (however I doubt that will happen but remain hopeful)

Outer Space, , as long as I didn't have to go near Uranus. . .

That's fine cause I rather people stay away from my anus anyway.

1) Australia
2) New Zealand
3) the San Juan Islands
4) somewhere exotic, luxurious and tropical
5) Walking through Ireland and England.

Wherever else I go in life, I hope it's as a traveler, not a tourist. Short list: Back to Britain for a third time, especially Scotland, barging in France, a visit to Australia, a trip to Chile and Argentina, some time in Cuba (which I almost visited in 2001, believe it or not) a long in depth visit to Russia. I'm becoming convinced trains might just be the best and most "real" way to travel.

I've been to a lot of places, but here are a few countries that I've never been to that I'd like to see before I die.

Central & South America: Costa Rica, Brazil, Argentina
Europe: Ukraine
Far East: Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand
Oceania: New Zealand & Australia

I wouldn't turn down a trip to Hawaii if someone offered, but I've never had a hankering to go.  Antarctica, either.

Luxembourg - Think it's cause it's the smallest country in Europe (I believe the world but can't remember) has it's appeal to me

There are a number of places that are officially sovreign states in Europe that are smaller than Luxembourg.  Lichenstein, San Marino, Monaco, and the smallest of all, Vatican City--basically it's St. Peter's square, and you can walk from end to end in 5 minutes.  They won't stamp your passport (I don't think), though.

About Australia...
Yes, I've been there and yes, it is everything you have imagined it would be and more!
Dean is lucky to live there.  Heck, I'd move there if I had mega-bucks.

As for a place here in the U.S, I recommend the Black Hills of South Dakota.
Sure, there's Mt. Rushmore, but it's just part of the whole experience.
The Black Hills and all the old towns within it are some of the coolest towns I've ever been to.  The saloons, sights, sounds, the American Indian traditions and Wild West feel can't be replicated quite like they are in the Black Hills.  Especially Deadwood.  Awesome town!
I've seriously considered retiring somewhere in the Black Hills when I get to be an old man.

Oceania: New Zealand & Australia

After watching Lost, I don't want to fly on any airline going that direction or coming from that direction. Next thing you know, BAM, you're on an island with a smoke monster after you.  

There are a number of places that are officially sovreign states in Europe that are smaller than Luxembourg.  Lichenstein, San Marino, Monaco, and the smallest of all, Vatican City--basically it's St. Peter's square, and you can walk from end to end in 5 minutes.  They won't stamp your passport (I don't think), though.

As you can see geography was not my strong subject in school. Who am I kidding, I went to school in Alabama. Some days I'm surprised I know as much as I do seeing as most of the text books we had were at least 20 + years old.

I used to want to go to New Zealand, but after the Lord of the Rings thing, no thanks.  Plus, as Lewis Black says: "If you're gonna fly for 19 hours on a plane, they better have the common courtesy to speak another language."

But right now, the main places I want to visit are Italy (Rome, especially, but any spot), and London.  A girl I know went there last year and wouldn't shut up about how great London is.  In my ignorance, I'm like, "Philly is just as great, so whatever."  But I do wanna go.

FRANCE - To see the great Gothic Cathedrals, the most beautiful buildings ever built, and to walk the lines of the old trenches that once formed the Western Front.

ENGLAND - To see the Imperial War Museum, the Tower, and of course, 221B Baker Street!

ITALY - Best food and friendliest people in Europe, built on top of the remains of the Renaissance, which was built on the ruins of the Roman Empire!

This little history geek would die a happy man if  he could take all these in, at least once!
