But we are all anonymous POG so is it not rather fruitless blowing behind an alias?

Maybe POG needs to travel more..

I don't think anyone was boasting on this thread,I actually found it quite interesting hearing of where people would like to go and places they have been,gives me ideas of places to go to..
Would never dream of going to places like Norway but hearing others experiences of them places would make you want to go and its always nice to go to unusual places on hols rather than the usual Spain etc etc
You and Ross4life could hit Norway together. Check if Minder wants to tag along.

IMO Best looking blonde women in the World reason enough to travel? but traveling with RLL minder common now

You would think!

If I wanted to blow I would blabber on about where I stayed and what I got up to when I was there and rabbit on about a few other places I have been to too.... Did I do that? I just said I would like to see Rio and the North Pole but probably won't happen. As for not getting to NYC on Paddy's Day, one solid year of good saving and it could be the trip of a lifetime
Not everyone has spare cash to put away for trips to new york on st paddy's day you know.

If you stopped buying 24packs of crusty rolls from the supermarket you wouldn't be long saving up

It's not me that wants to go

They have the Internet in America and Norway too so you would not have to put up with any withdrawal symptoms from your pals on here if you fancied taking a trip outside your front door

Yeah, definitely a self confidence problem you have.

You'll soon be at 13,000 posts POG. That is some going. I'll be the first to congratulate you, and wish you a happy 50th if it falls around the same time

Reading through this thread I just realised that I`ve never been to the Giants Causeway. Is it worth the drive or is it as drab as it looks on TV?

Want to attend a Chargers home game.

Not sure why i've such a dislikefor a place. If anyone can convince me otherwise i intend to propose soon and the honeymoon will be a hot topic

ross4life · January 17, 2011, 01:10:59 AM

I would love to visit the Ka'aba in Mecca but unless there is a Vatican 2 in Islam it will remain off limits.

There is a transgender temple in Tamil Nadu in India that looks very interesting.

Another one somewhere in India is full of rats but I don't think the kids would like it.

The playground of the bunscoil in Leitir Meallain was used as one of the locations for the recording of Gugalai Gug
and I would love to visit sometime.

ziggysego · January 17, 2011, 03:05:29 PM

The Moon.

Sandino · January 17, 2011, 03:27:26 PM

Ulan Bator

Gualin- China

Machu Picchu

Buenos Aires

Angkor Wat

Libya

Cape Town

Vietnam

I might get to one of these, with Cape Town being the most likely.

The grand canyon is surely more impressive than Milford Sound. I was at Milford Sound on a misty cloudy day and haven't been to the grand Canyons. Milford Sound has some nice sea scenery but the Grand Canyon is unique, a mile deep or something like that. It is surely worth a watch.

If you judge the Grand Canyon by the view from the Skywalk, then you do it a disservice. Far better places to catch the panoramic view than there. Evening time, when the sun begins to set over the canyon is one of those magical moments and would highly recommend it. You don't realise the scale of the place until you look at one of the photos at the lookout points and you realise that the rock you are looking at in the distance is actually 40km away.

Would love to visit Alaska and the whole wilderness thing going on up that direction, don't know why but it interests me.

And of course, Australia, followed by Buenos Aires.
