Ooooouch.

I quite like ferries, from the one experience I've had with one when I went to the Isle of Wight. The food was hella expensive but man the weather was awesome [if a bit too bright].

It's nice there, while not at all for thrillseekers unless you count carry cars over the Needles, but it's peaceful there. I'd like to go again.

I love travelling. I even enjoy the flight/car/buss-trip. : > Especially buss-trips with the band, those are always so cozy. Just need to be careful about choosing your seat so that you don´t end up in the middle of a bunch of twirlers.
So far I´ve been to Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Egypt, Greece and Spain. I´m not very fond of going to those typical tourist-traps to bask aimlessly in the sun though, so can´t say I enjoyed Greece and Spain that much... Egypt was also quite a lot like that, but at least we went to see the pyramids (even went inside one! That was so awesome), and camel-riding in the Sahara-desert and stuff.
Some time this summer or something I´m going to Finland with the concert-band I play in. I´m really looking forward to it.
Other than that I´d like to go to England, Ireland, France, USA and lots of other places, really, some time. Saving up money and going with Interrail one summer would have been exciting. : >

I´ve never taken a train anywhere though. : < I want to do that some day.

It was awesome at Gran Canaria. Especially the camel riding. :mryellow:

Once I ran onto a train, ran back out again to check if it was the right one, then a man shut the door and wouldn't let me on!

As the train went off the man sorta pressed his face against the window, laughing. It was weird. :oops2:

I wouldn't like hot spots like Spain either, I like, you know, doing stuff. Like going up tall towers and watching the view [as I done in Blackpool :>].

If you guys are ever in England, do check out Blackpool, it's got like the greatest rollercoasters the country has to offer.

We didn't do donkey riding there, in fact the beach was being reconstructed [anti-tidal wave structure or something] when I went there. I did however go on a horse cart one time when I was in Great Yarmouth, but I don't really like riding horses etc anyway.

I find horse riding really scary, I've been on one before and I thought I was gonna fall off and get crushed by the horse. Sounds silly because that's only so rare but still.

I went for a laugh with my brother a few months ago. It was funny as we had people guiding the horses for us, and there were like, 7 years olds who could do jumps and stuff.

Well, apparently not many Americans travel outside the US. How many states have you been to?

Not that many (at least I have been out-of-state though, hehe), though I'm really not the kind of guy who likes travel a whole lot. I'm the kind who could look at a photograph and be satisfied, which is why I usually don't head out-of-state all too often.

I live in Utah, USA, but I have been to Canada (to see Pyra, mostly), the UK, Spain, Germany, and Ireland. For most of them though, I was too young to remember (I was born in West Germany), so I hope to go back and take a tour around Europe sometime. Mostly, I just want to see all the castles that my parents went to see. :(

Personally, I think it's kind of understandable why many Americans don't make it out of the country. After all, it does take forever to get anywhere. :\ Plus when it comes to the drive to New Mexico, Arizona, or Nevada from where I'm standing, it's the most boring trip ever. You clap and cheer when you see a tree.

I wouldn't mind going back to Vermont though, it has a nice cool climate... :D

Then you wouldn't need a swimming pool.

I've also been very close to Africa. It was the very south of Spain we visited, we could just about see Africa.
