How was that Stu?  I assume that was pre-9/11?

Also, did you check out Chernobyl when you were in Ukraine?   My son is going to Europe this summer and wants to check out the abandoned ghost city.  Apparently, while the area is still restricted, they do offer day tours that get you in an out of the exclusion zone before the radiation exposure accumulates too much.

Over 40 US states.  I'm missing parts of the South.

Mexico

I need to get out more, but it's so easy to get to Hawaii from Alaska

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”
