I really want to go to Australia and New Zealand.. How beautiful they are! :wub:
I also would love to go back to the Pacific northwest.. The Redwood Forest, the Hoh Rainforest.. That was an incredible trip..
Also, since it's been forever, I wanna go back to Arizona..
-
If I had money just to go anywhere and everywhere, I think I would want to start with Scotland and Ireland, since that's where my ancestors came to American from.
After that, of all the places of natural beauty on Earth, I think I would visit the Scandinavian countries. I'm especially fascinated by Finland. I want to see the Aurora Borealis and the "midnight sun" too.
Then...since I have unlimited money and don't have to go back to work LOL..I'd want to go to Kenya on a wildlife safari with my camera. Mind you with all that money my camera would be an even better one than the one I have.
And since my camera would be so awesome, I'd like to go see some of America's prettiest places, like Sequoia National Forest, the Grand Canyon and Painted Desert, Niagara Falls (although it's also belongs to Canada), The Colorado Rockies, and Volcano National Park.
Then, if I've not renounced materialism and become a zen hippie, I'll join Theo and go to NZ and Oz.
I suppose I'll have to retire eventually though. I think I'll do that....in Iceland.

I'd love to go to Wales.. Some of my family way back was Welsh.. We even figured out which kilt is ours, my brother has one..
I've been to the Rockies and they are beautiful! I want to go back there, too.. That was one of the best trips ever.. And the Redwood Forest is probably actually called the Sequoia National Forest.. There's this place called Trees of Mystery that was awesome!
I think it'd be cool to see the aurora borealis and the australis borealis, though the probably look pretty much the same..
Also, if I have unlimited funds like Geeg, I wanna go to Hawaii! It's so beautiful and I think it would be loads of fun.. Plus Alaska.. Maybe an Alaskan cruise.... oh, that would be nice!

I'd love to go back to America. We did one trip to New York, but that's all I've seen so far. I'd also love to visit Canada - I've got various relations scattered across that country so I could save my pennies on that trip and put them towards a trip around Australaisa - I'd love to visit Thailand, China and Japan and then swing down to Australia and New Zealand.
I've not seen as much of the UK as I'd like - I've only been to Edinburgh so far and would love to explore more of Scotland. Daughter and I took a trip across to Ireland at Easter time but that only whetted our appetite and I want to go back and see more of that.
-
I've been to Niagara Falls twice.. Amazing sight!
I've traveled to (or through) most of the states, but there are many that I have yet to see..
I'd love to travel around the UK..
Actually, I'd love visiting just about anywhere on Earth, especially if it was free.. :P ::)
-
I used to fancy the idea of distant worlds, but having seen the recent images of Mars i'm not so sure ...
-
Ooh, yeah! Space travel would be awesome.. But I imagine the hypersleep would do numbers on a person! :id:
-
I wanted to live on the Moon when I was little because I thought it was made of something bouncy. Those astronauts looked to me like kids in a bouncy house and it looked like fun. Too bad for them their mommies made them wear helmets. :P
As for my own country, I've not seen near as much of it as I'd like to. I've been as far west as Dallas, Texas..as far south as Orlando, Florida, as far up New England as Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and as far north as South Bend, Indiana.
When we were up in Indiana, I begged the Mister to add an extra day to the trip so we could go to Canada just for the hell of it.
-
Indiana isn't that close to Canada.. :-\
One of the places on my mom's bucket list is Prince Edward Island..
For me; I'd like to go to Wales, Germany, and Belgium (that's my ancestral background)..
-
OH! I know! How could I forget Egypt?! I've wanted to go see the pyramids for a long while now.. I used to have a necklace with my name in hieroglyphs on it.. It got lost when we hired someone to clean my room.. I don't know if they stole it or if it just got lost somehow, but I don't have it anymore.. Maybe someday I can get another one.. That'd be nice.. :)
The only drawback of visiting Egypt is the heat.. I'd die, literally, in heat much more than 105°.. At the very least I'd suffer from heat stroke.. Both sound fun, NOT! Does Egypt even have a proper winter? :^
-
Australia, Sweden, Italy, Belgium and America are on my to do list :)
-
If you had your druthers, where in the states would you visit? :)
-
Too many places to list, I want to see the whole world :D
-
That would be pretty cool, wouldn't it?! :D
-
Hmm.. My choices have slightly changed in two years.
Still really want to go to Belgium. Really want to go to US, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Australia and Japan!
-

Yup with you on this one!!! Hoping to have a cruise down the norweigan fjords in 2015!!
-
I would very much like to see the world too! However the top of my list at the moment are...
Lofoten islands, Norway
Dubrovnik, Croatia
New Zealand (always)
I'd love to travel across the usa and Canada
Thailand
I'd also love to go back to Italy
I recently went to Madeira for the first time and would like to return and explore more of the island as it's one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to (so far!)
-
Great list M!! I'm with you on them, where in Italy are you after going to? I've done pisa, siena and chianti, all were amazing
-
I've been to Florence and briefly, Pisa. I would love to see Florence again (such a beautiful place) and Rome of course but think I'd just love Italy in general. Lake Garda/Come/Maggiore all look magnificent too :)
-
I always think Italy is just a beautiful country in general! I've recently been to Prague and it was wonderful, but still something magical about Italy x
-
Ah yes I've heard Prague is lovely :D I want to see more of Europe definitely, Italy being high up there. I think others to add to my list would be Austria and Hungary because of my heritage. My grandparents were Austrian and Hungarian but I've never visited either country!

I visited Budapest in 2011, and it was such a beautiful place to visit and really cheap for food and travel as well, I truly loved it. It's the reason I went to Prague as well, but i really want to head back to Budapest add didn't manage the pools!!
