Life Travel Destinations You Would Like to Go To, But Haven't.

**Rain Man** · 06-01-2011, 10:49 PM

A twist on the thread about travel destinations you'd recommend. Where would you like to go?

For myself, I offer the following top ten lists for domestic and international.

Inside the U.S.

1. Key West. Key lime pie and I like wearing white pants. What else needs to be said?

2. Boston. I can't believe I've never been there. Lots of cool historical stuff, I hear.

3. New Orleans. Another "I can't believe I've never been there" place. Probably should've gone when I was single.

4. One of those sequoia/redwood forests in California. Technically, I've been there, but I was two years old. I'd like to go when I know more than three adjectives.

5. Kauai. I'm going to Maui and Honolulu later this year for the first time, but even with that Kauai seems like a place I'd like to go.

6. The Breakers in Rhode Island. I like fancy old mansions. I should live in fancy old mansion.

7. The Vanderbilt Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. See above.

8. Barrow or Nome, Alaska. Doesn't matter which one. I'd just like to see one of them.

9. Niagara Falls. Maybe try to check out the Finger Lakes while I'm there.

10. Martha's Vinyard or Nantucket. Doesn't matter which one.

Honorable mentions in no particular order: Glacier National Park, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Minot (ND), Mackinac Island (MI), Monticello, Mark Twain Museum in Connecticut, rural Vermont, Hudson River Valley (NY), rural northern Nevada just to see what it's like.

International:

1. Italy. I think I'm the last American who hasn't been to Italy.

2. Amazon River. Preferably in Brazil, preferably do a full navigation of it.

3. China. Never seen the Great Wall, probably should.

4. Macchu Picchu. Duh.

5. Timbuktu. I really want to go there, but don't know if it's safe right now (or in my lifetime).

6. Antarctica. Honestly, just so I could say I've been there.

7. Finland. Don't know why, but Finland interests me. It's kind of the invisible part of Scandinavia. Plus, they do naked coed saunas.

8. Bulgaria. This has been intriguing me more in recent years. I'd want to add Albania and Romania to the itinerary, though.

9. Mongolia. Because everyone should go to Mongolia once.

10. Turkey. Seem like there's a lot of interesting stuff in Turkey.

Honorable Mentions in no particular order: Churchill (Canada, to see the polar bears), Greenland, The Congo (just to say I've been to the Congo), Ethiopia, Morocco, Switzerland, Amsterdam, the French Riviera, Tibet, Bhutan (kicking myself that I didn't go there once when I had the chance), Thailand, Bali, Japan, Island of Yap (just to say I've been there).

Everywhere.

I've been enough places. Really. I'm happy with my travels. I want to return to Kuwait City one day to see it rebuilt but I'm probably not going anytime soon.

How about that place that promises 72 virgins??

Dr. Johnny Fever · 06-01-2011, 11:04 PM

Like Reaper said... everywhere. I've done very little traveling in my life. I've been to Dallas/Ft. Worth and New Orleans south, through much of Florida southeast and Chicago north... but I've never been west of Hutchinson Kansas and never gone further northeast than Huron Ohio and never out of the country. My sister lives an hour north of New York City and I've never been there to see her. Basically I suck.

I get married next Saturday then we're off to Jamaica. We're excited. We've heard great things about the place. Anyone here ever been there?

Yes. I've never experienced so many people trying to sell me weed.

Good. I'm very happy to be divorced. But don't let me poop on your parade.

Our hotel told us the police would try to set up the tourists and have them buy it. I guess it is illegal down there... and I didn't wanna spend my vacation in a Jamaican jail lol

I white knighted the Kuwaiti people. They liked it. They gave me some worthless gold trinkets to hang on my chest.
