tyleete wow thats a neat list there ... any trip plans for next year?

 

[denice]

Since I was in the military and originally from Kansas it would probably be easier to list the U.S. states I haven't been too. California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Alaska and Hawaii. I have been to several European countries, Germany, Britain, Denmark, Spain and Italy. I have also been to Mexico.

Oh dear lord no. I was a military great and lived in 4 different states growing up. Then have takenholidays both up and down the East Coast earlier on. Then we moved from VA to WA & back to VA again within a 6mo period. West Coast sucked! So why do many places. We moved back here end of 2015 and I've only attempted one holiday since. My cats let me know that wasn't in the cards for me anyone. I do rescue work and got stuck with the older ones and those with medical problems. Have everything from IBD (2), hyperthyroidism, diabetes, stomatits, 2 with severe food allergies, and another with such a weakened immune system, he can't even fight off a cold without medical attention and fluids.:/ I haven't had a proper holiday on 7yrs! Only small day trips are allowed. The last time I tried trusting and paying someone to tend to them, the person left my house unlocked! And with all the medicines, most don't know how to do that.
So no. No going away for me. My son and I always wanted to travel to Japan though. But that's just a dream.
You?

 

[strider rose]

tyleete oh yes ! im hoping to go to georgia sometime next year ... someplace i havent been to before and i have friends there too

 

[neely]

Too many states to list but I enjoyed visiting and sightseeing every one of them especially other countries.

 

[Winchester]

Rick has been all over the US. Me, not so much.

For me, the entire East coast, down through Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, into Florida, up into New York, Vermont, Maine, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island. New Jersey
Through the MidWest, up into Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
Nevada, Arizona (My one and only plane flight)
Canada. We love to visit Niagara Falls and spend time at Niagara on the Lake. Also Toronto, Quebec, and Ottawa.

Rick can add several states to this list. He flies. I do not. He's been all over the Pacific Northwest. I'd love to go there and, if we could drive, I'd head out in a heartbeat.

We're thinking of heading back to Maine for an extended trip in 2023. We'll go with my brother and his wife. Or they'll go with us.

 

[NY cat man]

Aside from NY:
All of New England, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, Ontario, Quebec, France (Cannes), Spain ( Barcelona and Majorca), Greece (Athens), Italy ( Catania, Taranto, and Naples), Valletta, Malta, Punta del Gada, Azores, Bermuda, Gibraltar, San Juan Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands
EDIT: I forgot Washington, D.C.

 

[MonaLyssa33]

I live in Minnesota and have lived here my entire life, so I've been to many places in the state. Outside of Minnesota, I've been to Florida many, many, many times because my grandparents lived there. The last time was in 2019 before my grandpa died. I've also been to Chicago, Door County, Wisconsin (beautiful place by the way), Bayfield, Wisconsin, various places in Michigan like Mackinac Island (also beautiful), Washington DC, Boston and Salem (this was my most recent trip in October), San Francisco, and South Dakota. Outside of the US, I've only been to a tiny town in Ontario, Canada in 2005 before I needed a passport to travel there. My dad goes fishing there pretty much every year, so I went with him that year.

My next trip with my sister might be New Orleans, Charleston or Austin. We're still working out where we want to go.

I've been all over Ohio, into Michigan, over to PA to go through Jersey to get to NYC. I've been to Chicago several times (traveling through Indiana), flew to Arizona, and have been to Canada (and loved it). I don't travel or get out much!

 

[catloverfromwayback]

England, Scotland, France, two states in America. Last time was ten years ago, my overseas travelling days are long over. Been to Queensland to live for two years, never want to go there again. Did a few short visits to Sydney decades ago.

 

[susanm9006]

Hard to answer, probably visited most states except Hawaii and Alaska, but many of these were just to airports and hotel conference rooms without opportunity to actually see the state. The only non US place I have visited is Canada where I traveled from Toronto to Vancouver by train.

Oh man, let's divvy this up. I've been very fortunate to travel.

-Canada (Ontario)
- Mexico (Mexico City and Puebla)

South America:
- Argentina (Buenos Aires and Ushuaia)

Europe:
-England (London)
