[Bill Douglas]

As a teenager I set off on foot from San Diego to San Francisco and then via Interstate 80 to NYC. And while I was in the neighbourhood I went to Mexico and Canada.

Since then from my home in New Zealand I've been to Australia (about 40 or 50 times) Singapore Rarotonga Fiji Samoa Vanuatu New Calidonia Zimbabwe Zambia South Africa England Scotland Belgium Holland Germany France Spain Italy Greece Switzerland Hong Kong Thailand. My favourite place is Rarotonga.

Alaska is an awesome state to visit, just fly there & rent a car, awesome road trip scenery!

[David]

All states except: Alaska, Hawaii, New Hampshire, North and South Dakota and West Virginia.

U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Belize

Japan, Thailand, and Indonesia

Portugal, Spain, England, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Monaco, Greece (Santorini), Croatia

The ones I really look forward to going again are Japan, Spain, and Croatia. I didn't spend much time in England or Germany so need a longer stay there and maybe pick up a car

Is that it?

[LWJ]

^^^ for now. Yes.

What is funny? There are lots of domestic places I have not been to / seen. Grand Canyon comes to mind. Didn't get to Yellowstone until a few years back. (It is AWESOME!)

I really want to go to S. America, never been there.

I also want to ride a dirtbike across Mongolia. Anyone interested in that one?

[Zeke]

I've been in a lot of states but not long enough in many to tell you much. Foreign countries I visited are Canada and Mexico ( MX, barely across the border before I'd seen enough). I don't have a passport so this was a long time ago.

Canada I would visit again except maybe not right now unless I had a good reason. Beautiful country and they should be proud. IDT I'd go to Mexico if I was given an all expenses paid trip.

The nice thing about living in CA is that this state offers just about anything you can find worldwide w/o going into extremes. I mean we don't have a South Pole, OK? But darn near everything else AFA terrain goes.

Culture, food, language, we have quite the variety but I wouldn't pretend I could go and emulate the coasts of Italy, Greece or France. Even England for that matter. I guess I'll have to do without.

Except I'm hardly without in California. If and when I get done here, I'll look beyond.

[wdfifteen]

We travelled for the magazines a LOT, mostly in a pickup truck. Whether it was a show or a photoshoot, as soon as we were finished we had to hot foot it back to the office to get the next issue out.

Vicki and I joke that we've been everywhere and not seen anything. "Look! There's Mt Rushmore! Let's wave as we speed past."

We did usually take time to have lunch at a local place and try the local potato chips and beers while we were at our destinations. Once we were on the road though, it was all business. When we stopped for the night, we'd hit a Burger King for cheeseburgers and a drive-through for a six-pack. When we got to our rooms, we'd each take a cheeseburger and 3 beers and head to our rooms. (This was before we were married)

[KFC911]

Well I've never been to Spain,
But I kinda like the music....

I am a homebody compared to most .... so I've been right chere ... not even to the Island of The Band ... yet !

I remember being somewhere in California and I could look to the south and see the Salton Sea and look north and see a snow-capped mountain.

[PorscheGAL]

Boy, do I have some work to do to catch up.

US States visited 25
Lived in 3 thanks to the Army
Lived in 3 others since Hubby left the Army

10 European Countries

2 Caribbean Islands.

I have a whole list of places I would like to visit. Slowly working my way through those.

[matthewb0051]

^^^^^

I was thinking about where I lived during my military career (22 years)

England
Ohio
Savannah Georgia
Germany
Clarksville TN (Fort Campbell)
Watertown NY (20 miles from Canada)
Charlottesville VA (1 year)
Oahu Hawaii
El Paso
DC area

Favs: Watertown NY and El Paso. And I went kicking and screaming to both but loved them.

Hawaii is nice but I had crap bosses and after a while the island gets a little small. Germany was great too but that goes w/o saying.

[gacook]

Korea, Germany, Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Qatar, Australia, East Timor, Greece, England, Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Guam...

Only states i haven't been to are Wyoming, Wisconsin, and Alaska

It's very cool, with a great culture and I was mostly just in one tiny little corner of it.. I suspect you could visit 5 places around the country and it would be almost like visiting 5 different countries.

If you thought you were a lightweight, look at my list…

Canada and France. And both were this year.

I’d have to look at a map, but I’ve been up and down the East Coast and Ms Rocket and I did a 7000 mile trip all around the US.

When I was a young teen I remember talking to some people who had done a Contiki around Europe. I asked if they went to Germany. They thought about it for a moment then the girl looked at the guy and said "Yeah, that was the one with the big green road signs."

So I guess there is a difference between driving through a place and having been to the beach, hit the town, etc.
